A small corner house in Reykjavik, Iceland. Love the colours. There was a music lesson going full swing when I passed there. I think they were beating drums.

The Truman House
Filed in Canon 40D, Houses, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, United States, UrbanThe Truman Show was filmed in the town of Seaside in Florida way back in 1998. Feeling old now? This is the house where they filmed interior shots of Truman’s home. You’ll recognise scenes from the film if you visit the town, but trees and bushes are a bit more overgrown now. Anyway, Automattic went [...]

Abandoned Interior
Filed in Architecture, Black and White, Canon 40D, Houses, Ireland, Kerry, Photography, Photos, Sigma 10-20, Slea HeadThe interior of a cottage at the picturesque Brandon Creek on Slea Head, County Kerry. Outside there’s a planning permission notice, dated August 2008 and written in Irish. I presume the owner is no longer in a hurry to develop his property. All he wanted to do was replace the roof and add an extension.

Bright Idea

Public Seating
Filed in Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 40D, Houses, Photography, Photos, United Kingdom, UrbanPlastic seats outside a house, near yesterday’s home I think. We went for a walk this evening by the reservoir in Inniscarra and I got some nice shots of my family and of the setting sun over the water. Unfortunately when I got home a number of shots were corrupted. I’m not sure why or [...]

My Home from Home
Filed in Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 40D, Houses, Photography, Photos, Street, United Kingdom, UrbanWhat do you do when you get home from holiday? Put a clamp on the wheels of your caravan! I could make a joke about cleaning the wheels of their home, but that’s an obvious one and I’m in a hurry tonight. Got a surprise birthday party to go to soon! Shot somewhere near Slough [...]

A Cabin in the Rockies
Filed in Automattic, Breckenridge, Canon 40D, Colorado, Houses, Landscape, Nature, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, Sky, Trees, United StatesA small wooden cabin or hut sits in a car park near the houses Automattic stayed in at Breckenridge in Colorado. The original shot can be seen in my Flickr stream or in the Automattic group there. This version has been extensively dodged and burned to bring out the contrast between light and dark. Late [...]

Cottages in decay
Filed in Architecture, Black and White, Canon 40D, Co. Cork, Cork, Houses, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanTwo tiny cottages sit on the quayside in Cape Clear’s North Harbour. You might have missed them when you arrived because they’re off in the opposite direction most people take. I was quite taken with the contrast between both cottages. While both are obviously old and have seen better days, the left one has a [...]

Tall trees in Oracle
Filed in Arizona, Automattic, Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Houses, Landscape, Photography, Photos, Sky, Trees, United States, Urban, VehiclesThese tall evergreens planted in front of a set of small houses in Oracle were almost gone before I saw them. The scene looked bizarre. Tall trees, tiny houses. I wonder who lives in them? Here it is on Google Maps. Try the Street View, you’ll see two cars pulled up in front of the [...]
