Ibuprofen, as suggested by lazy Doctors everywhere.

I’ve always been fascinated with eyes and how much they can say. William Shakespeare described them as “the windows to the soul” and he’s right - you can tell a lot by looking into someone’s eyes.

080902 : Eye Eye.



Not sure whether the ‘windows to the soul’ thing it works with cats. Some believe that animals don’t have souls, but I hope they’re wrong.

Not sure if the depth of field works on this one or just makes it difficult to focus.

Agree Kitten, the focus just seems too unatural and it just seems too odd. Loving your pics though

Wish I had started this now...might have made me get the camera out and play a little more.

join in now! Nothing says it has to be Jan 1 - Dec 31.

I note several 52's have been missing recently (), so why not try and do 1 a week?

Awwwww lazy Pebs cat

Like the eye pics, Kitten. I agree on the cat one though. Needs a touch more DOF to make it work. Only the eye need be in focus, but cat eyes are quite deep so you need to play around a bit more.

Here's this week's pic. I took a few in the snow and this isn't my favourite, but it's something I've been meaning to take a pic of for a while Had to play around with the perspective as I had some lens distortion. Does it look alright?



Week 6 - Winter Postcard. This is the church which lives across the road to us. It wakes us up with a peel of bells at silly o'clock on Sunday and deafens us on a Friday night when it's bell-ringing practice, but I'm quite fond of it really, especially the old oak tree which looks beautiful all spring, summer and autumn. I just thought it looked nice drenched in snow and is deserving of a slot in my 52 weeks as it's something I see every single day.

Week 6? Hmm how am I only on 5 even though I don't think I've missed a week I must be going mad

Despite the scenic weather and thinking I'd taken lots of photos. I didn't take many at all. But never mind.

Week 5/6 (who knows ) - The view outside of my bedroom window last Monday when it was very snowy for round here. Some of the snow is still on the lawn now
