    A rose by any other name

    Picture was taken at: ISO:200 F:22 Shutter: 25sec. If this was my intended effect I would be chuffed but I admit it was more of an accident when I experimented with setting using the attached light ring. As you can see in the SBS the light ring is made up from recently dug out christmas light...

    Times gone by

    Staying in a little shack in Africa, electricity was not readily available, so this oil lamp was a necessity for lighting the rooms at night. Perhaps not such an irrelevance in today's world in the developing countries but in modern areas oil lamps are certainly old school.

    Nelly the Elephant

    As an addition the the photography I would like to add that according to traditional beliefs when an elephant's trunk is pointed upwards that means good things are coming in the future and happiness is relevant and when its trunk is pointing down then negative consequences are likely.
