Mark Allanson's Photos

It seems like this Autumn is being fantastic for gorgeous sunrise and sunsets. I just wish I was good enough to convert these photographs into something really special - time to take some photoshop lessons and become creative :) For now i'll just stick with straight-off-the-camera!

My submission for the Project365 Week 3 Challenge. The topic was Hallways, without an actual photo of a hallway. I've interpreted this as simply, "gap", and in this case, my daily consumption of water, tea and coffee while at work formed a tight gap that I thought fit the bill nicely :) Processed in Adobe Lightroom.

Picture from Saint Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. The light was shining in from one of the windows directly onto the crowd below - I couldn't turn the shot down. I've got a number of these shots at varying exposures but this is the only one with such a distinct highlight of the people below. This photo was taken at ISO 1600. (For some reason Zooomr doesn't show ISO in it's EXIF information...)

If anyone knows where in NYC I took this photo let me know so I can geotag it. I can't remember. I think it was somewhere near Radio City on West 49th St.

This photograph was taken in a shop located just off the side of Piazza Di Peitra in Roma on my Italia 2006 vacation. The repetitive layout of the stock was perfect for photography as demonstrated by this small series.

This photograph was taken near Soho Square in London. It has such a strong presence because it uses the uniform lines of the window frames to draw your eye from the bottom left of the photograph to the beautiful blue sky in the top right.

Twins. Lamp posts in London. For some reason these two were right next to each other - from what I remember - for no particular reason.
