A Black Five stormed through Folkestone on a fair Saturday morning. Thought I'd go for an "iconic" look but unfortunately right at the last minute I had to switch over to my iSamsony smartbone after the batter on my proper camera died (my fault for not checking the charge after lack of use).
Went for a quick walk around Folkestone harbour with my iSamsony smartbone this evening.
This is a commissioned doodle for someone who apparently runs a pub and will get there rain or shine.
Experienced an early taste of Spring today as this view from the hills to the north of Folkestone shows.
As Folkestone have experience a wet start to November with 140 mm, double the average for the month.
A facebook friend has been feeding a tame robin in her house, much to the dismay of her partner.
As bus services in Folkestone are being severely disrupted by cutbacks and drivers walking out.
I tend to have the best view of the setting sun at this time of the year as the sun sets directly in front of my hobby room window which faces deaf on west.
Today, a visit to a local car show had finally scratched a 40 years old itch that was to see a General Lee in the flesh. I've always wanted to do that since I watched The Dukes Of Hazzard in my teenage years.
Apparently a BBC broadcaster has been accused of paying 16 years old girls for nude photos, that's shortly after a recent sex scandal with another former BBC personality. There seems to be more sordid going ons in Portland Place than in Amsterdam!
Finally caught sight of a locomotive I've never seen before as she stormed through Shakespeare's Cliff at a fair ol' lick of speed. Could have done with some blue sky but at least the ambient lighting was strong enough for fast shutter speed.
Taken hand held on my smartphone from my hobby room window, so not my usual high photography standards but does capture the spooky looking atmosphere.
Had a go at creating a special effect creating old school methods. This was not digitally done using video overlays, the Spock figure stood behind a sheet of glass and the colour "orbs" were from a tablet screen that reflected on the glass.
Last night, I dreamt that I was the owner of a friendly indoors-only seagull and penguin for pets and my actual cat, Jet, didn't mind them being in the house. My brains doesn't half come up with some strange random stuff.
