A bag of Haribo Starmix and Coconut Mushrooms later and I feel really, really sick. And I didn't even start on the Tangfastics :-)
I'm still at the novelty stage with my macro lenses. It's such a different perspective to what I'm used to. I'm finding that lighting is critical too - a bit of experimenting is in order, I think.

'Tyne Dogger Fisher German Bight west or southwest 4 or 5, increasing 6 in Tyne and Dogger. Mainly fair. Moderate or good...'
This won't mean much to you if you're not from the UK. Sorry. And yes, before anyone mentions it, I know the radio is tuned to Radio 2 rather than Radio 4. It's just that the composition works better with the needle pointing to Radio 2 :-)
Monday Morning Blues (Reds) // January 17, 2005
Last week was my first week back at work after the Christmas break. I'm getting reacquainted with my alarm clock - a relationship I'd rather do without.
This picture was one of those that you see in your head before setting up but can't quite pull off. I set up strong backlighting to emphasise the internals of the clock and blow-out the white table, but this has produced a huge red shadow that I think is too dominating.
