So what have I been up to recently....

Hi all, haven't posted any photos for ages so here's a bit of a mixed bag for you.

MACROS
First off I've been playing around with some closeup / macro stuff using a Kood +4 filter that I've had hanging around for ages and never really used. Surprisingly it's actually better than I thought it would be.

Pills:

Chess:

Seashells:

You can check a few more macro shots out in my gallery

THORPE BAY
A little seaside town in Essex near Southend.

Beach huts

Hut

You can check out a few more of Thorpe Bay in my gallery

HADLEIGH CASTLE
The small town of Hadleigh is just west of Southend, on the edge of the essex marshes.

Surprisingly good results from a +4 filter!

Nice shooting! Good colour one them! My favourites are the pills and the group of beach huts.

Cheers for the comments guys The beach hut photos were taken using a circular polariser. This has really bought out the strong colours.

*waves back* at ashtray_head - we should get an essex photo meet off the ground

Never been there despite the fact it's only up the road, what's it like? Dense trees or nice shade dappled woodland paths?
