Classic Car Exhibition

The annual Classic Car exhibition took place at The Leas today. Just like last year, the weather and lighting were spot on perfect for it, but this time I used my new Lumix FZ45.

The Dark Side

Made use of the shaft of sunlight that beamed into my hobby room earlier on this afternoon. I have done this kind of thing before but I used my new D3100 on this one.

All The Fun Of The Fair - Revisited

Night time long exposure photos of Radnor Park fun fair. Tried to ...repeat and improve on last year's attempt but I do feel that it is no better as 1) Caravans, lorries, generators and vans blocked more of the view. 2) The rides weren't arranged that well photography-wise 3) None of the rides moved for ages as there were hardly anyone there and 4) It was cold, windy and wet. I used my new Lumix TZ45 for this session. No adjustments has been carried out on the photos themselves.

My New Friend

Next door's kitten. The one that could jump a hundred feet to catch unsuspecting passing butterflies.

Donkey Derby

The annual Donkey Derby took place at the town over the weekend.
Incidentally, the morning started off as being wet and windy and the event was threatened with cancellation . . . but then suddenly the sun came out on the moment and thus made for an excellent photography session.

The Clearance

Nice bit of back end clearance as the cloud belt - lit up by the setting sun - recedes into the eastern horizon.

Results Of A Walkabout

As per the title, really. That's where I continued to make good use of the warm weather and good lighting. Oh, and my new camera.

Backlit Flowers

Some flowers lit up by the early morning sunlight.

Don't Mess With Me

My oldest school mate, Ian Fraser, looking hard. But in actual fact he's a real teddy bear.

A Fine Day

Excellent lighting made for a very good photography day today.
The black cat being on the prowl is Chad. This is a rare moment as he doesn't like to stay out in the sun for too long (black fur and strong sunlight doesn't go well together).
