Jet



Coming up to 3 years old, this dude is turning out to be a well behaved indoors-only puss. Occasionally he does like to let me know who is the boss, but he is a good boy, really.

Moody Selfie



Yesterday evening, I had everything all set up to take a still life photo of fruits using my two flash guns - only to find one flash gun wasn't working. The batteries inside not only ran out but leaked, so after I took that flash gun apart and cleaned out all the gun and got it working again, I then had to change the battery on the remote sender.
  It was a bit of a faff, and by the time I got everything working again, it had gone past midnight so I packed everything up (it took so long that the fruits in question went mouldy!). However, I did manage to take this last minute quick test photo using the trusty Nikon D40.

So let this be a lesson to myself, never leave AA-type alkaline batteries inside devices for too long.

Murkiness At Folkestone

 
 


A real pea souper this evening as we go through a chilly spell. The mist then retreated out to the nearby sea (as I live at a coastal town) the following day, which made things look rather hazy and lazy for a time.

Moon Shine

 
As sunlight bounce off the Antarctica snow cover onto the dark side of the moon.

And a random night time photo of ASDA as viewed from my famed west-facing hobby room window.
