Read MoreWe’re shooting Architecture this week. Go out to places and shoot structures that we might not pay enough attention to – the sleek glass façade of a modern skyscraper, or maybe something with an art-deco frontage from decades earlier.

Read More. Details from nature is my other option, the ball hydrangea has weathered the winter well, and I love how the structure and texture has begun to show.
