I'm completing a 365 right now. You might already know that. I am enjoying it, but as the wintry days keep on going, showing little sign of spring so far, I've been feeling a somewhat uninspired. It's hard to pinpoint what gets you out of these moments... Work can be never ending, chores building up. I honestly end most weeks with a things-to-do list that is twice as long as it was at the start of the week. So sometimes, something has got to give.
I set out last weekend purely to pick up some dinner for my brood. I needed to head to New Brighton. It was late afternoon and the day had been very bright (yay!), but I hadn't really had chance to get out with my camera. As ever though, Mr Click was in my bag and when I left the supermarket I could see the sky was looking really pretty as the sun was coming down. I decided to head over to the Prom and click away...........
Ahhh, pretty!
Now as I had walked across the joining road from the car park to the prom, I had noticed a group of guys on skateboards. The thought did fleetingly cross my mind as to whether they might have some tricks that could look cool if I was able to photograph them... Then as luck would have it, as I was capturing the images above, the group of skateboarders entered the prom and I overheard them talking about "trying some jumps" and the "sky looking cool." Before I knew it I had a gymnastic performance taking place right in front of my shutter. BRILLIANT - just what I need to get my juices flowing again. Completely spontaneous and I was one happy bunny! Hope you like them too. (full, flowing collage at the bottom).
Enjoy...
Thanks for looking ~ Fleur
