Caught and intended for dinner... Day 182

...still alive for now, stored in a 10 litre plastic bottle. Focusing was hell, so I'm proud of this achievement ;-P SOOC

Friendships - that light at the end of the tunnel Day 181

SOOC (yeah, yeah, I keep writing this down cos I'm still fed up with the mentality that if one photoshops sometimes this means the photos must be technically crap.. yeah right!)

I need to push myself to set the exposure, crop bla bla bla right in-camera. Especially cropping - why lose the pixels if better framing would let you keep the full pixel count... This has been drilled into my head during the photojournalistic workshop and yap, they're right. This also eliminates time consuming changes. Oh, no, I'm not giving away my PS, my baby... ;-D

Light and shadow delineated Day 180

I seem to have an addiction to skies (and ships) haha

All these lonely people, where do they belong? Day 179

Interior of Sirkeci (Orient express) train station. Men waiting for daily jobs.

A view through a window that could kill... Day 178

Old falling apart wooden mansion. Unatended beauty. Shame.

Long strides Day 177

Ferry hopping early in the morning (ferries are tied to one another overnight and people need to get to the furtherest one). I like the jeans clad legs walking straight into me ;-P SOOC
