I went out in the centre of Worksop with the Oympus EP2 and 14-42mm zoom to do a bit of street photography. This was my favourite from the short session. I've titled it unlucky for obvious reasons.

I'm not sure why but skulls fascinate me. This one taken this morning on a garden table is of a medium sized bird -probably a blackbird or starling. It was found in a shed. I used the Pentax K20 and 100mm macro.

The final part of my alphabet series is the letter Z taken in the garden of a spinning washing drier. I looked around for where the best cross over of lines was, and then span it round to an appropriate background.

Letter Y is a meat fork and the result of pushing the Pentax K5's ISO to the limit. Well judging by the result perhaps not the limit at all. This is set at max of ISO25600...yes there is the double nought it's truly twenty five thousand six hundred ISO.

A quick cycle around Clumber Park provided me with an alternative across the lake view of the chapel. Taken with the Olympus EP2 and 17mm lens. I included the tree branches as foreground interest.

A shot of neon lights at a gym overlooking a car sales pitch taken with an iphone and hipstamatic for my photo365 project.

Lovely field of poppies but they were blowing too dramatically in the wind, and I only had the iphone with me so here's today's photo...the best of a bad bunch.

Letter X forms the alphabet themed photos part of my Photo365 project. This is a tap off a reproduction copper/brass diving helmet.

Letter W is a pair of wrist strengtheners for my alphabet photo part of my photo365 project. Photographed with the camera's built in flash to give the stark contrast.

Letter v of my alphabet sub section of the photo365 project is the side of a perfume bottle photographed upside down. 10 marks if you know what perfume. I really like photographing glass at the lens' widest aperture...
