Photography is something you get immersed in.
You lose yourself in shooting, and all your worries and daily stresses just melt away.

Photography is one of my favorite hobbies.

Hello!<br />
I am back!<br />
I have been absent from this blog for a very long time and I really don't have any good excuses to justify this. I joined facebook and that is mostly the reason why I haven't been here for such a long time.<br />
I have quite a good number of new photographs to share, most of which I have already shared on various facebook groups of which I am a member, so I hope to post regularly once again. To get started here are some daisies from my garden.<br />

Trying new digital photo effects on this photograph. </div>

I was attracted by the reflected mirror image of these faceless mannequins in a Fashion store window and worked some digital effects on the photograph to reduce and remove glare on the glass window pane.</div>

<span class="userContent">I just couldn't help taking a picture ( 3
actually) of this particular moment between a dog and his mistress. </span><br />
<span class="userContent"> I watched this scene from about 8 metres or so... the lady
ate her icecream little by little and the dog stood still, watching her,
he never whined or begged but sat there watching his mistress until she
finished her treat. She finally handed the cup to the dog to lick away any
traces of icream left, it was such a tender moment.</span><br />

It is common knowledge that some photographs result better in black and white. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am convinced that this is true. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some of my favorite shots are in black and white, this is one of them. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used an old photograph of my daughter and stitched it to a more recent photograph of a rose.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I like the result ... do you?</div>
