This is the first time I have tried time lapse photography.
It seemed to fit our theme today on WordPress Photo 101.
I had a lot of fun figuring out how to do this.
As you can see, I have a little figuring to do yet 😉

photography101: weekend two (play with light)
This is my response to the weekend “homework” on the WordPress Photo 101 course.
Today’s theme is “playing with light”.
I am thrilled by this challenge because for a while now I have snapped the sky through the window of my apartment and tweeted it…
So, with a few extra snaps from today, I have played with light to show you the sky over Elsene in the heart of Brussel.
Follow me on twitter @andytownend if you’d like to see the light keep changing 😉
Oh, and as a ps, if you hit refresh in your browser the image in the main circle will change…

It’s not about me.
It’s about him.
The guy in the photo.
He’s doing.
What I should be doing.
So.

photography101: mystery
Eyes wide open, trying to see.
Water running overhead.
Faint electrical hum.
Whiff of decay.
Shiver runs down my spine as I extend my finger.

photography101: warmth (a hint of)
I woke early this morning to see today’s #photo101 challenge was “warmth”.
Driving north along the motorway, with the fields covered in a blanket of mist, I wondered how to respond. And at the same wished the theme had been “misty”…or “cold”…
In the same meeting room all day, I lacked inspiration (for the theme anyway).
Taking a short walk at lunchtime, I was left cold by the sunlight and autumnal colours, they seemed too cliched, a little too obvious.
Then, back in the meeting room, I noticed the sun shining through the window and reflecting off the hot air radiators lining the walls.
So, I may be stretching a point, but here is my slice of “warmth” from an office complex just outside Amsterdam.

the (un) natural world of doel
My response to today’s theme on #photo101 was a spider’s web captured in a window frame in the abandoned polder village of Doel.
The main target for my camera yesterday was the graffiti which covers almost every vertical surface in Doel.
So as an extra #photo101 contribution this evening, here is a short slide show featuring the (un) natural world of Doel…
And for those having trouble seeing the slideshow on mobile devices here are the images…

caught in a web
“Our task must be to free ourselves… by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and it’s beauty.”
― Albert Einstein
I became entangled with this web yesterday as I made a second visit to the abandoned polder town of Doel, of which more later…

photography101: landmark
I must admit I did not go out and take this photo this morning in direct response to today’s landmark theme.
However, in my defence 😉 I took it just over a week ago at a famous local landmark and in taking the shot I wanted to capture a different angle. So, I think that probably both excuses me and fits the brief?
I was struck by how the line of people clambering up the monument looked like ants climbing along the ridge.
