Inspiration
I was a bit stuck for what to photograph for this month’s inspiration, because it’s been one of those months where pretty much everything I’ve seen has triggered my imagination. I have particularly enjoyed drawing new designs to try out on my Gocco though, so I’ve stuck with a simple photograph relating to that. It’s a bit dull, but I’m hoping the rest of my photos will make up for that!
Something I made
The topics this month are all on a similar theme, relating to cities and towns. Earlier this month I made this funky fox, and as foxes are so prevalent in London I thought he’d be a good choice for this photo.
Urban
There was something I really wanted to take a photograph of for this topic, a fabulous graffiti mural of scenes from Sin City… but when I went to take the photo it had gone! Ok, it’s been a while since I last saw it, I don’t pass that way often, but it was a bit of a shock nonetheless. Instead we have a photo of the stereotypical block of flats.
Transport
I was spoilt for choice in this category, so many good photo subjects cropped up this month. After much dithering I’ve chosen this snap of boats at the Canal Cavalcade in Little Venice a few weeks ago.
Motifs: Graffiti
Despite my favourite Sin City graffiti having been replaced by something inferior, I’ve seen quite a lot of graffiti this month. Surprisingly most of it was at the Chelsea Flower Show!
I’ll be doing the rounds over the next few days and will pick my favourites from the other blogger’s photos and will post them on here.
What’s happening next month with the Crafty Photo Scavenger Hunt? Pop back here tomorrow and find out…
