94. Bottlebrush

🧠 I loved this spiny red flower, especially against the green background.

⭐I love the colour contrast and sharpness of the leaves.

➡️I wish the spines in the middle were more in focus.

93. Science Centre

🧠 I thought the tower looked good framed by the two other structures, especially with the light and shade contrast.

⭐I footered about quite a bit with the shadow level and sky contrast and am happy with the look.

➡️Should more of the building on the left have been brightened up...?

91. Going, going, gone!

🧠 I had to justify not throwing out these dying roses earlier somehow... Perfect reason to do some macrophotography.

⭐I cranked the texture right up and like being able to see every crease and vein.

➡️Maybe a bit too much dead space top left - I should've lined them up straighter. Weirdly, I think the middle rose looks somehow noisy but when you zoom in it seems fine...

89. St. Bride's

🧠 I'm possibly being a bit repetitive with another 'leading lines with a nice building at the end' shot 😊. I do love this view though.

⭐ Because of the shaded area in the centre, it looks like the church is at the end of the path but there's actually a little park there, then it's up the stairs and across a busy road to get to the church.

➡️ Maybe should have tried to avoid the intense shadow...

86. Bunny, Bunny, Bunny (Must Be Funny)

🧠 Thank you @rhonaaaaa for providing the subjects which I thought looked cute lined up behind the car's back seats.

⭐I like the shift in focus on each bunny, and the bokeh effect of the car lights outside.

➡️ I wasn't thinking about what was out the window when I composed it and maybe would have made it tighter if I knew I'd want to keep the bokeh lights!

83. Light Trails

🧠 I was hoping to get a bus but got fed up waiting so made do with the cars passing by, as well as getting J to walk back and forward!

⭐I'm pleased with the car light streaks and repeated wheel alloy pattern! I'm also quite chuffed the rest is so crisp. I had the camera hanging round my neck and resting against my abdomen with the wee screen popped up to use instead of the viewfinder.

➡️ It's maybe a bit busy. I cut off the top of the tunnel which had given surround framing because there was too much that was distracting. I think if I'd captured a bus the full height could've worked.

82. Sunburst

🧠 Glasgow Uni looked great in the setting sun. I really wanted to try some 'breaking the rules' effects by taking shots facing the sun (mirrorless cameras have electronic viewfinders so I wasn't risking eye damage!)

⭐I love the rays coming from the sunlight disappearing behind the buildings. I also like the purple and green streaks to the left (I'm sure they've a technical name I don't know).

➡️ I took this quickly and had to rotate it so the lamppost was straight but that cut off more of the building at the left than I wanted.

73. Locks

🧠 I wanted to make it look like the locks went on forever.

⭐I think the blurring works well to exaggerate the amount of locks at the end.

➡️ Maybe I should have picked one of the foreground locks to really focus on as a subject.

72. Waterfall

🧠 This was my first time properly trying motion blurred water. I thought the setting was perfect for it.

⭐I'm pleased with how crisp the still elements are with the slow shutter speed needed to blur the water.

➡️ I want to try to get a smoother look to moving water - might be better on a shallow river.

50. Self Portrait

🧠 I was taking photos of the beautiful buildings around Charing X and Garnethill but this convex mirror on a post is what really caught my eye!

⭐ I love the contrast between the colourful reflection and the almost black and white branches and sky.

➡️ On to try again on a sunnier day to maybe get a blue sky background.

45. Tunnel

🧠 I love a good tunnel shot! This one is by Cowcaddens station and I wanted to capture someone silhouetted at the end.

⭐ I used the masking brush for this one to isolate the ground as the texture was quite distracting. Quite a bit of editing to get the bright and dark bits balanced. I think the graffiti looks really good.

➡️ I think bits of the ground are now too dark but I'm not going back to edit again!

42. Somewhere...

🧠 The turquoise and gold building is really eye catching and originally I intended it to be more of a side-by-side with the grey Hillhead Library building. I decided to crop and focus more on the Nico building with intriguing stuff going on at the end of the alleyway between the two.

⭐ I like how the colours of the building look and really stand out.

➡️ I was lucky to get the road as empty as it was but it's a bit annoying that that car is where it is!

40. Rebel

🧠 They've tried all sorts of signs and obstacles to stop people cycling on this path and I was lucky enough to catch this rebel on his way past a fairly recent sign. This one is definitely more about capturing a moment that a beautiful picture.

⭐ I like that it's quite chaotic with the overgrown patch on the left, boarding and scaffolding on the right and more signs of temporary construction ahead, as well as the cyclist and runner passing that sign at the perfect time!

➡️ I hate the editing on it but I can't get it any better. It's almost maximum exposure and still looks dull. Fiddling with other settings doesn't seem to do much. Basically my camera settings were way off - too much to get anything better out of.

39. Thomas Cochrane

🧠 This was in Culross but I thought it looked like we could be somewhere in Spain or Italy with the yellow building in the background.

⭐ First time I've just cropped the picture to Instagram Square - I thought details either side of the bust were distracting.

➡️ I'll try another edit with more of the plinth in. Maybe portrait orientation would make that work.

37. Subway

🧠 The way the drivers are so visible in the new trains (soon to be driverless) really emphasises how tiny they are!

⭐ It's harder than it looks to get a decent shot of a train drawing in to a station and still moving, especially timing it to feature the station name. I think I've managed to do it OK. I like how the light on the wall looks like daylight coming in a window but it's actually the light at the front of the train.

➡️ I've tried and failed a few times to get either train or background blurred with the other sharp.

35. GFT

🧠 Another one of my favourite Glasgow buildings. I've noticed my recent posts have seemed very dark, after I've been satisfied with them after editing so I've tried going much brighter this time. We'll see how that looks on my phone tomorrow.

⭐ Level of background blur is good. I don't think I've overdone it this time!

➡️ It's ok but not particularly striking or dramatic, which I think I've tried to do with the more 'moody' editing in other pics.

34. Lamppost

🧠 I thought the lamppost looked really good with the more modern flats in the background.

⭐ Level of background blue is good. I don't think I've overdone it this time!

➡️ I feel it's a bit bland in colour. Maybe it would look better black and white.

33. St. Aloysius

🧠 I love this church building and thought it looked interesting framed between the building on the left and the wall closer to the camera with graffiti.

⭐ I think I've made the church stand out enough that it doesn't look too messy, just a lovely grand looking church in a busy city.

➡️ The top quarter of the tower looks hazier than the rest of the building and I'm sure I could fix it if I knew how... The angle my camera was at means none of the vertical lines are exactly perpendicular so I don't know if the way I've cropped it is best.

32. Walter Scott

🧠 I got more of the monument in but decided to crop close to the sculpture because the columns were add odd angles.

⭐ It was harder than I thought to get what seemed quite a simple picture edited to look how I wanted.

➡️ Next time I'd take it straight on to use the columns as proper framing.

30. New College

🧠This is one of my favourite buildings in Edinburgh.

⭐The stone came up really well.

➡️ Twigs and branches nearest the camera look a bit shaky as well as blurred which I find a bit distracting.

28. Mausoleum

🧠The family who built this must be very rich for it to be so big and high up!

⭐I like the colour of the stone and the different textures on the structure.

➡️ It's probably looking a bit too similar to my other Necropolis pictures!

Today's trophy. I just love these cauliflower mushrooms (Sparassis crispa). They have a long season so can be found even when there's not much else around, they're easy to spot, just look at the base of pine trees, and they taste lovely especially with cheesy dishes like... pizza 😋

About the only nag I could possibly have with them is that they're a bit tricky to clean, but do similar you'd do with a real cauliflower, breaking it into individual florets and it'll be a whole lot easier.

Here's another fun fact about these mushrooms: leave their base intact and they'll grow a new head right where you took one home from. Just remember where you found it and collect more in about a month's time. Assuming nothing else gets to it fist, of course. Deer and wild boars also seem to love them.
