Keith Burton's photos

Taken at Emsworth, Hampshire yesterday, on a wet and windy afternoon. I got so tired watching these men at work that I had go and sit in a warm dry café with some coffee and cake, until I was rested enough to drive home..!!

Taken at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire, about an hour or so before high tide. This was taken on another grey, damp and miserable day........but I needed to get out for some fresh air and this area is one of my "go to" places for a quick walk, as I only live about a 15 minute drive from here.You probably already know that as I have posted lots of photos of this place! Best viewed large, I think. Thanks for looking!

This lovely church was built circa 1133 inside the walls of a Roman fort (now Portchester Castle) when Henry I founded a small priory of Augustinian Canons who moved soon afterwards. The priory has long since gone, but the church remains, largely untouched. Check out the PiP for a view of the inside.

Another fantastic piece of artwork by local Southsea artist "My Dog Sighs". This is on the wall of what used to be a huge Knight and Lee department store (and as it says on the wall, a branch of the John Lewis Partnership) which sadly, closed with a huge loss of jobs. It was one of two "flagship" stores in the shopping centre (the other being Debenhams, also closed down). I suspect both will soon be demolished and turned into housing. mydogsighs.co.uk/art

Some of you may remember this sign from here: www.ipernity.com/doc/keithburton/52213836 Taken on a grey 'orrible afternoon, at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire about an hour or so before sunset,

Taken on Petersfield Heath, Hampshire back in August last year.

This one is especially for Maggie (MaggsMep) as she pretty much challenged me not to post another "Marmite" photo :-))) Taken indoors on my tabletop in natural window light. Afterwards, I drank the orange juice, my wife ate the boiled egg and the jar of Marmite will go to my daughter, who loves it. The toast and marmite went in the bin..!! Maggie........if it's any consolation I got some Marmite on my fingers when setting up the shot and licked my fingers clean without thinking............it took ages to get rid of the taste. Yuk..!!

Taken at Langstone Harbour yesterday afternoon. I went with black and white because it was a black and white sort of day. There is a colour version in the PiP so you can see the (small) difference if you want to.

Taken indoors on my tabletop, experimenting with using light from a recently purchased LED lighting panel. These are just a few miscellaneous items from my "props" box.

Taken from the sea wall at Broadmarsh Coastal Park, Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. This is what I would call a "Marmite" photo...........you'll either like it or hate it :-))) Personally I hate Marmite........but I like this photo and decided to post it.

Swans and Ducks. Taken at Bosham Harbour, West Sussex.

These brightly coloured, pin-head sized glitter shapes came in tiny little bottles. I transferred them to a small wooden tray to take a photo and then realised getting it back in the bottles would be almost impossible, so I just upturned the box onto a piece of black card.........and this is the result. The PiP shows what they looked like in the box. Hours later, we are still finding tiny bits of glitter in the carpet and I'm pretty sure I've swallowed a couple :-)))

Spent another couple of hours at Bosham yesterday afternoon with my wife and daughter. It was lovely and peaceful in the sunshine. This was taken around an hour after high tide, so the road had only just become walkable again. My wife had taken some bird food with her............check out the PiP to compare this peaceful scene with the feeding frenzy that occurred after she started to throw some food into the water..!!

A candid image captured at Emsworth Harbour, Hampshire. I have no idea what this couple were looking at.......all I could see was water :-)) I hope you all have a more exciting day than this couple seemed to be having!!

I think these were taken sometime in October last year in Leigh Park Gardens, Hampshire.

Captured in the Petersfield Heath Pond, Hampshire. It seemed to be making sure that I captured it's good side :-))

I thought it was about time I posted another piece of colourful street art. This is by the artist ROO. There is another, more serious, work by Roo Arbrook in the PiP. www.artbyroo.com/murals
