Wildlife Trusts BCN – Trumpington Meadows.
A short reel I made for the Wildlife Trusts BCN showing their beautiful Cambridgeshire meadow. Music especially composed by David Lemus to tribute “Grantchester Meadows” by Pink Floyd.

Day 4: Dog Rose.
I was surprised to learn that this is a type of rose. I guess this is a wild species and the flower-shop roses we see today used to look something like this, before they were bred to look… well, nicer. Like in many of my macro shots, I like a blurry foreground as well as…

Day 3: A Bug’s Life.
2nd of 4 rose photos this Macro Week. The small size of the bug I think actually adds to the delicacy of the rose.

Day 2: Distorted.
It was an overcast day which was good for smooth, delicate macro shots. The bokeh here came out so deep that it’s almost dizzying to look at.

Day 6: Geranium robertianum.
I actually found out what the weed is called! It’s apparently also called Red Robin and Crow’s Foot. Definitely one of my favourite plants to photograph.

As promised, here’s the 3rd edition of macro week. Progressing in chronological order, this is from the entrance to the graveyard opposite campus. It was raining for a minute so the droplets are as delicate as the flower – a nice complement.

Day 7: End.
This is the last post in this macro week. This one isn’t from the campus, though it is from the same day. I took the longer way home, past the ‘nicer’ houses which actually had front gardens. These flowers were close enough to the street that I wasn’t intruding too much. On a different note, I…

Day 5: Manly Flowers
Again no idea what flowers they are but the tree, which was pretty much next to the plant from the previous post, was covered in this blossom so couldn’t not take a photo. This one is actually turned upside down since the blossoms were hanging down, it makes it look more interesting without looking unnatural.…
