Hazy Day – A Local Landscape
We hadn’t had rain in this area for a while when I took these photos of the landscape around Swansea. I don’t know if it was atmospheric conditions, pollution or simply dust in the air, but it is not uncommon to have hazy days like this in South Wales, regardless of its reputation for continuous rain!
Pointing the Way
I stopped on top of the hills on my way home recently, just because it is a place worth stopping. The sights and sounds, the peace and tranquility (on a warm quiet day) of the Mawr area in the county of Swansea . . .
Photoshopping – now you see it, now you don’t
I really liked the green block aspect of this building in Swansea’s SA1 quarter. But I did not like the lamp post in front of it!
When I took the photo this object was irritating, but I thought, “never mind, it’s part of the cityscape“. Looking at the image afterwards in Adobe Lightroom made me decide to spend the time taking the lamp post out. I knew it was going to take a little while to do it well, but I thought it was worth it.
What do you think?
