Because of you..

March 27, 2013 by settleandchase

. . Because of you, inside this noisy world, I began to hear the white line hum, of the beauty in the detail. You came quietly into the blue/gold of morning, led me to a whisper of faint magic, fallen on to the grass, lifted it out, showed it to me. It was beautiful enough before, soft to the hand, leaning in the breeze. But you reflected light on to every waving, surfaced thing, made every flourish, every song it possessed, […]

We keep on growing

January 23, 2013 by settleandchase

. . .  . .  No matter what, their urge is to grow, to reach for the sky. Wherever I put them, they would bend to the light. It’s always an inspiring lesson. .

The Right Light

January 21, 2013 by settleandchase

. . . I’ve burbled on a bit about my love for light in many a post since I started here. It has amazed me just the difference that light makes to a photograph. This may seem obvious, but I truly didn’t quite understand its importance and significance in the mood or feel of an image before I started taking this time to learn. I have an absolute favourite corner in our house for taking the kinds of shots above. […]

New Space

January 11, 2013 by settleandchase

. . . . . . . . . . . Some of my favourite new corners in my new workspace. It’s a great space to reflect and learn. I’m setting things out and making a home there. I’ve added a wall of favourite shots too, to look over slowly. Today was grey, but misty and light. It feels good, for now As John Martyn says it so perfectly here.. . . © C. Rennie, 2013

Movement in Orange and Gold

November 15, 2012 by settleandchase

. . I’ve had too much time indoors these past few weeks, so this week I’ve been more out and about. I’d been eyeing this pathway for a long while, wanting to explore it. Driving past yesterday, I had to stop. It was spectacular – blurs and lines of gold, grey and green, air and honey. Apple juice. Leaf mould, twig, light and star shaped moss. Crackles that make you jump and turn. Breath a little high in your body. […]

More Quiet Work

September 25, 2012 by settleandchase

. . . A lovely quiet time taking these today, although it took ages trying to get a shot I was happy with..and I’m still not totally pleased with some of the focus in a few. I wanted the background blurred but a few more seeds clear..maybe a slightly wider depth of field next time. I may try the lone seeds with the cloth up the wall too – I thought I wanted that separating line, but now I’m not […]
