Back In Time

Today, I have transported myself back in time yesterday and took this photo tomorrow.
This is the "old town centre" taken today, under grey overcast skies.

That's What I Call A Kodak Memory

As Kodak fight for it's survival (it is on the verge of bankruptcy). I thought I'd turn it into a themed photography project using an action man and a £2 Box Brownie recently bought at a boot fair.

It's A Small World

Decided to get back into this "tilt and shift" method - the art of processing a photo to give it the illusion of looking at a scale model. The two photos were taken today using local features, since the weather continued to be fine and settled - albeit rather cold.

Another Sunrise

Got to see another decent coloured sun rise this morning. This settled quiet spell is certainly producing the goods!

January Sunrise

Another lovely sunrise this morning, as seen from the back of my house.
I'm gonna have to be more prepared and take myself to a better location for this kind of thing, but colourful sunrises - and sunsets - are very unpredictable things! That's why I do miss my daily commute to work when I was working.

Bright Moon

The ol' moon has got his hat on this evening. Spotted from my back yard.

Virgii formation

Spotted over the Strait Of Dover earlier on today.
Caused by cloud condensing into as ice crystals - which can be seen as those wispy bits - but turning to as rain and then evaporating before actually reaching sea level.

Winter At The Beach

Snow may seem to be lacking so far this winter, but at least I was able to get out with the camera whenever the weather does become bright and settled (in between the stormy stuff, that is!). What you are seeing in this batch of photos are Folkestone Harbour and the beach to the east of it.

Morning Has Broken

After what it has been a rough and rather windy couple of days, things settled down enough to produce this nice hued dawnbreak this morning.

A Fine January's Day

It was a nice day here at Folkestone, so I went for a wander about the town to blow the cobwebs out of my lungs.
