Autumnal Palette

A simple bramble leaf,

veins shot through

with flames of yellow

against a fiery red and orange,

painted by autumn's palette.

A Rose by Hipstamatic

The Hipstamatic App has added several new "films" to its stock recently.

I chose this beautiful creamy rose as a suitable test subject to assess the qualities of each.

The Sussex Film has a quality similar to the standard camera but gives the

image a slightly roughened shaded border with is simple without

being distracting, but, for this subject, I love the antique feel to the rose

that the C-Type Plate Film produces.

Wind torn sky

September brings the first winds of autumn

Wind torn clouds fill the sky

Above spray crested waves.

Sparkling air

Clearing the mind at Crosby beach.

September Sunsets

The month of September brings wonderful sunsets to Crosby beach.

The air is clean, washed by wind and rain,

Clouds move swiftly, reflecting the light

Of the setting sun, every shade from crimson to peach.
