Harbour Lights

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Went down to the harbour area again this evening, certainly a good way to get fresh air and exercise.

First real sign of Spring as I took this on a mild and sunny February's day.

Cock Robin

 
 
I think this one is a bit late for Christmas. Caught this fella using my Lumix compact with the lens on max zoom.

Moon Halo



Caused by moon light being refracted inside millions of ice needles that makes up cirrostratus.

Moonshine.

 
 
 
Is this what you would call a light drink?

What's that?!

 
 
As I tried the D7000 and f1.8 prime lens on him with only the hobby room lights for the lighting.

Big Boy

 
 
Jet getting to be all grown up and now my hobby room stool is too small for him to sleep on.

Contrails

 
 
A contrail filled skyscape this evening, taken from my hobby room, looks like airliner planes are making the most of a powerful fast moving jet stream,

Windy

 
 
 
This is me summing up the weather so far this month.
I hung myself upside down, took the photo and then the photo was rotated and the result is that wind-swept effect on me.

December Sunshine

 
 
The Winter season doesn't always have to be about strong wind and heavy rain, something last winter was well known for. This was captured this morning using my four years old Nokia N8 smartphone while on a stroll.

A Day In The Life Of Me

 
 
 
 
 
 
Wasn't at all a bad Saturday. Met up with former work colleagues in a pub - and there has been blue skies all day!

A Chink Of Hope

 
 
The low Autumn sun cuts through the broken stratus this afternoon, as viewed from my hobby room window.

Black & White

 
 
At first sight, this might be a five minute digital job using paint shop pro, but it is an actual photo of an old toy snake puzzle resting on a sheet of black and white paper, then changed the colour in the photo into as 2-bit monochrome.
  Incidentally, if you divided this photo evenly into none blocks using the Rule Of Thirds method, they will all be the exact same size as the middle patterned one.

Bah, humbug

 
 
Almost that time of the year, which does bring out the Scrooge in me.

Jet

 
 
 
 
Did a proper little photo shoot with Jet this afternoon.

Can't really go wrong with a colourful sunrise as this was taken from my bathroom window at 7 am.

November Sunset

 
 
 
 
 
 
This was a sight for sore eyes after what has been a grey, drab and particularly wet day. The top image was taken with my Panasonic Lumix and the bottom one on a Nokia N8 smartphone.

Halloween Spirit

 
 
This is what I'll probably look like in the afterlife. Whooooooo.
