Keith Burton's photos

Taken indoors, using an LED light panel as a background. The "menagerie" is made from wooden figures I found in a craft shop.

Yesterday afternoon I was surprised with a little bit of unexpected sunshine, so I took the opportunity to dash to my local country park, camera in hand. By the time I had got there, the sun had gone, but the light wasn't too bad. I managed an hours walk before the rain started and I had to retreat to the car! Please check out the PiP if you have time. Thanks for looking and have a nice day. I wish you all a good weekend.

A quick collage of a blackbird I spotted in Havant town cemetery this morning!

Taken during a morning walk in my local country park.

She of you may know that we feed the birds in our garden daily. The pigeons are always particularly hungry....................... It's not a very good quality video.........but you get the idea :-)))

Not sure what kind of red berries these are, I picked them from a tree on a patch of council-owned land in our road and took them home to make a photo. I used a green card as background and the lighting is from an LED panel. I added a texture to the background in post processing. I wish you all a good week ahead..!! Edit 16/12/24.........thanks to Mireille and some follow up research, I now know that these are berries from a Sacred Bamboo tree (nandina domestica).

A tree fern, growing against a brick wall in the Bishop's Palace Gardens, Chichester, West Sussex.

Taken in the gardens on the sea front in Exmouth Devon.

Another couple of views looking across Bosham Harbour towards the houses. This was captured in 16:9 format, so better viewed large if you have time. The second image is in the PiP. Thanks for looking :-)

Taken indoors on my tabletop.

I found these on a piece of waste land near to where I live. Locals come and pick the apples during the autumn. Eaten raw, crab apples are sour and astringent but there are many recipes available for making chutney, jam or jelly with them.

Bosham Harbour again I'm afraid.........this time a view across to the rather nice houses on the opposite side of the harbour from my earlier shots. It was the two sailing boats and their reflections that caught my eye! Best viewed large if you have time.

The awful weather had me staying indoors and reaching for the macro lens today..............and trying to introduce a bit of colour into a dull day..!! If you don't know what the "ball" is made from..........check out the unravelled version in the PiP. I wish you all a good week ahead. Thanks for looking :-)

Another view across the harbour taken last Tuesday morning. Captured in 16:9 format, so I think it's best viewed large. Thanks for looking.

Taken this morning from the beach on Hayling Island. It was very windy and cold, so I had to retire to a café for coffee and cake :-))

Not my usual stye of tabletop photograph, but I wanted to try something a little different. The "brick wall" is actually a piece of wall paper, which I bought as a leftover from a charity shop. The vase also came from a charity shop and the lighting was from an LED panel. I can recommend the book if you are interested in spiders :-))

Prinsted is a very small village on the shore of Chichester Harbour and I spent half-an-hour or so there this afternoon, taking photos. It was very calm and quiet with hazy sunshine. I don't normally shoot directly into the sun (as the photos normally turn out to be awful), but I'm quite pleased with the way this one turned out, with just a touch of post processing.

A cold but sunny morning, with calm waters. The incoming tide was still far enough out for me to be able to get this perspective, looking back at the houses that line the harbour. The reflections were lovely, A wider view of the harbour in the PiP, if you have the time and inclination to look. These were taken in 16:9 format, so are better when viewed large.
