My place of work

I'm never sure if bluring out the background or foreground looks better - in this one I went for bluring out the background (my office building)

Lazy afternoons ....

This really captured the feel of the city today - hot, humid and just needing to be spent relaxing.

Poppys !

Ended up crawling behind a load of bushes for this one in the middle of Cambridge City Center. Got me a lot of looks and in fact a couple of interested spectators as well. Almost felt like a proper photographer. One thing I've noticed tho - I'm using muscles in places I never knew I had - my ankles from all that crouching, bending and squatting are killing me

My favorite of the lot is the first Cambridge Street shot, great composition

Could you ammend your picture sizes though as the limit is 800 pixels on the longest side and under 200kb for embedding.

Cheers
