Night Time At Folkestone

Decided to make good use of the bright Harvest moon on this fine clear evening.

Fluff

An arty farty film noir photo effect of my sister's cat taken on a smart phone.

The Cube

A recently repainted building taken on a donated iPhone 5 the other day.

Passing Cop Car

Finally, got a better version of the last attempt to capture a passing "blue and twos".

Night Time

Two more night time shots taken on my GoPro, but one shows the westerly movement of the low cloud and the other picked up a passing cop car.

Black And White

Newly Opened Viaduct

Had a quick wander on the freshly restored Folkestone railway viaduct where we can now walk along it. I think the convective skyscape added to the photos.

Night Time

 

 

Been trying to catch the flashing lights of a passing emergency services vehicle, but with no luck. Never is a policeman about when you want one.

Update: The second photo is another attempt a week later, and still no luck but have captured passing distant lightning.

Colourful Building

This cheerful looking building just around the corner from my house was completed this week, and today the bright mid-summer sunshine and blue skies helped to pop out the colours.

ISS

Taken on the Go Pro from the relative safety of my famed west-facing hobby room. The Go Pro could only do 30 seconds max exposure but picked out the light trail easily.

Walkabout

Went for a little walkabout at the Harbour Arm with an old school friend.

Captain Jack Sparrow

I captured a impressionist called Ash White in action as the famed Pirates of the Caribbean character at a hot and sunny Folkestone harbour today. I even got a boat to get up and close to him!

Propping The Sun Up.

Spotted this large transport crane close to my house today. While I only had the smartphone camera to hand, I tried to get arty farty with the photo anyway.

A Fine June's Day.

Went on a rare bike ride on what was a fine and warm June's day and naturally the trusty Nikon D40 tagged along.

Morning Murkiness

Woke up to coastal mist on what could have been a fine May's morning.

Consititutional Around The Harbour

Had a wander around the harbour area with my Nikon D40 and 300 mm Sigma telephoto lens.

May Sunset

Taken from the relative safety of my hobby room window this evening.

Afternoon Siesta . . .

. . . for Jet as the sun beams into my famed west-facing hobby room.

Training Session

A couple more train sets from my slowly growing railway model collection.

Best Of Folkestone

Or almost as the building in the top photo is still under construction (an old arcade place being rebuilt into as a conference place).

Both were taken hand held on a Go Pro then tweaked on the PC.
