Good morning, welcome back to the channel and in today's video I'm going to be doing a challenge
set by Sean Allen of Rambles With My Camera which was to do what he called 'Over Your Head
Challenge'. So as he's a street photographer what he suggested was that quite often we tend
to just look straight ahead or look down don't really take in what's above us, so that's the
challenge basically to spend an hour or so in my case about an hour because uh I'm on my lunch hour
and see what I can get. See what kind of photograph I can capture. I live in a small
town in the northeast of England, I say town, it's more of a large village.
Population about seven to eight thousand people, it's mainly housing
so that in itself is going to be a challenge to find something quite interesting to photograph
so another advantage I have is I'm quite a shortarse, I'm only five foot seven so pretty
much everything's above my head so that might make things a little bit a bit easier for me.
I'll put the link in the description to Sean's video and if you watch that you'll see that yeah,
he had a fantastic sunny day in Belfast, he got loads of shadows and
reflections and things like that, and of course, I've come out on a horrible wet day like this
but you've got to make the best of what you can. Weather forecast for the rest of the week is going
to be like this so do what you've you just got to do what you can with the weather you've got.
So we'll see what kind of images I can capture and I'll show you some of those now
thank you
This is quite hard work trying to keep the camera dry keep the lens free raindrops
keep the glasses clear so I can see what I'm doing but I have managed to find a few
compositions and the latest one looking at this fungus that's on this tree branch here
which is quite interesting. I wasn't expecting to be doing this type of photography but in
nature stuff today I thought it was gonna be more tops of buildings that type of thing
but uh I'll take any uh opportunity I've got to get a interesting image
so guys we have to call it quits today rain's coming down heavier now and it's pretty much
impossible to get some decent shots today so I hope we've got something interesting
I hope you've enjoyed this little vlog if you have give it a thumbs up and if you like the
