In a (New) World of My Own

I’m forced to admit that I am disgruntled by the top two-thirds of this image.

Day 13: Still stuck in haunted forest land. Taken near Menlo Village on January 10, 2010.

I have to admit that this grove of trees near Menlo Castle intrigues me. The trees twist and turn like the broken limbs of the dammed quailing under concerted blows….aren’t I just the cheerful sort?

Day 12: Large and in charge. Taken at Menlo village on January 10, 2010.

I may as well admit here that keeping three separate sites – newworldphotos.net, bhalash.com and flickr.com – in sync regarding photos is a total pain in the ass. Doing it on a daily basis for my ”365 days of photos” just compounds the problem. Grr, etc.

Day 10: Juxtapositions. Taken on January 10, 2010.

On a photowalk to the area this morning, I decided to capture this vista again in order to compare the changes as to how the scene appeared back in October 2006, when I last visited.

I love this scene. The juxtaposition between the warm interior and the exterior that stretches off to infinity has always been a compelling inspiration for me.

Day #5: Bubbles frozen in ice. Taken in Renmore, Galway, City, Ireland on January 3, 2010.

My infrared binge continues, but a trip up the Dyke Road is beginning to show me that even I have my own limits…
