New Light Box

Got a delivery of a new Light Box for the flash. Used the oppertunity to return to macro images and see the effect.

Oxford

I spent two days in Oxford for a EU project meeting. The people in the project are nice, but the procedure is tiresome (need to meet and talk about what we did and what we plan to do).
I decided to take the camera with me and have some fun.

The weather was nice and sunny (although cold) and walking along Oxford you run into different strange things. I also experimented with HDR photography that created various interesting effects....



There are many bike riders....


Cute lane


The gate to the botanical gardens


A pub where Tolkien used to frequent. It was a nice place to have a beer and chat.


Wide angle HDRs


The local Natural History museum (very nice)


A side street that caught my eye (with sunset starting to come up)
