Day 3/365 - Still raining!

Day 3 of 2013 (and my 365 Project) and I don't think it has stopped raining since Christmas!  Already clutching at straws as to what to photograph, and keep dry, I tried out Magic Lantern's firmware patch for the Canon EOS 500D...this upgrade could keep me occupied for months; video recording down to 0.2 fps, automatic nine shot HDR capture for stills, focus racking and much much more.

Not really a fair test of its capabilities, I accidentlaly set off an HDR 5 exposure capture whilst hand-holding the camera, vaguely pointed towards the TV - obviously NOT a suitable subject (each frame being a totally different image).  Combining them with Photomatix Pro 4.1 produced the rather abstract composite image below.  Hopefully, if the rain ever stops, I will be putting this combination to better effect ourdoors.

Another day indoors (must buy some waterproofs!).

With the weather dismal, and forecasts for severe winds and 20-40mm rainfall over the next 24 hours, our workshop stayed indoors (again) and we made the most of taking abstract/macro photographs of the artwork available to us in "The Space", Cannon Street, Preston.

Here are just a few of my shots (credits to the original artists will be added next week!).
