Waited until dusk, then headed to a bridge that overlooked the A55 at Abergele, North Wales. The town in the background is Colwyn Bay, with the Hook of Rhos-on-Sea.

40 to 40 - Day Eighteen - The Faces Of The Marble Church

40 to 40 - Day Eighteen - The Faces Of The Marble Church

For day 18 of my 40 to 40 project, I stopped off at The Marble Church (St Margarets) at Bodelwyddan in North Wales. I already have the 'Iconic' images of the church, so wanted something different.

I was drawn the them many faces that surround the church and look down on you wherever you go. This is just a selection of the faces, of which there was probably over 100 or so in and around the building.

40 to 40 - Day Seventeen - Makka Pakka's Stones

40 to 40 - Day Seventeen - Makka Pakka's Stones

Stopped by at the beach near Llandulas, North Wales for today's 40 to 40 project shoot. Turned out that I came back with dozen or so shots from walking around on the beach for half an hour.

The beach is very stony and it looks like they have travelled from all over the world to get here. Every stone different in size and colour. This was the 2nd attempt of making a stone pile, the first was amongst the pebbles on the beach and was far to busy. They looked much better on a nearby boulder.

I've called the final shot "Makka Pakka's Stones" after the Night Garden Character who likes to collect them.

40 to 40 - Day Sixteen - Piggy Portrait

When shooting (taking pictures that is) animals, you have to get in to their world, so I spent some time on Wednesday, laying down on the job, so I could look my subject in the eye.

The hard bit was getting her to look me in the eye.

40 to 40 - Day Eleven - Portrait in the Park

40 to 40 - Day Eleven - Portrait in the Park

Spent half an hour with the kids at the Botanic Gardens in Rhyl. It was great to do some lifestyle photos with them, along with some pictures of the gardens as well.

I just loved this shot, reminded me of some documentary type photos of a few decades ago, when the photographer is spotted by the little girl on the park bench, with her mother and sister.
