Another random mug.



Let's face it, I just like drawing random face. Did this one while I was sitting outside soaking up the early Spring sunshine this afternoon.

Self Portrait

 

Perhaps I was Leonardo Da Vinci in a past life.

Not Just A Pretty Face



Just a quick sketch based on a facebook friend. I wanted to draw something a little different other than my usual cartoon style.

Badger Strikes Again


Did another "commissioned" doodle for a friend, but this isn't the first time I've drawn them. Do you recognise the character in the middle?

Jet is 11 Years Old!




Every year ever since I got jet as a kitten, I have done an official proper birthday shoot of him. This is this year's.

The Old And The New





Went on a night time stroll along Folkestone pebble beach with my trusty Nikon D7000 this evening, I wanted to take a picture of the crescent moon but I got distracted by other ideas. It was a bit frigid, though.

Rays Of Hope


This morning I wanted to replicate the same shot that got me into digital photography 20 years ago. Again, used my smartphone and the rays are lens flare and not a filter. I've included the original shot taken on a Sony Mavica floppy disk-based digital camera 20 years ago for comparison.

Pissing In The Wind





Just been for a constitutional around Folkestone Harbour with my smartphone on what was a bright but rather blustery Monday morning. Perhaps I should get myself a proper camera . . . Oh, wait . . .

It's An Ill Wind . . . Again

 

As our weather take on an unsettled note yet again.

Planet Folkestone


Captain Kirk, we're now approaching Planet Folkestone. Shall I raise shields

Panoramic mode taken on my drone and created in a 360-degrees type app. Yes, it's not exactly original stuff but wanted to do my own take on it for the first time, especially with a contrail-free clear blue sky on what was a fine calm Sunday afternoon. Note the small bit of sea mist at top right corner of the globe making it appear like cloud sitting on a planet.

Winter Sunset





Earlier on this afternoon, I went on a bike ride to Sandgate to pick up a retro film camera and found myself taking photos of the setting sun on my iSamsony smartbone as I rode through The Lower Sandgate Road on the way home. It's only just now my frost-bitten face and fingers have come back to life. Note a slight light pillar caused by sunlight being reflected in ice crystals that makes up cirrus cloud.
