Blue Hour

At the Old High Street here at Folkestone on a damp November evening.

Wet November Continues

A Super Wee

Ever wonder where heavy rain come from?

Wetter Than An Otter's Pocket

As we experience a wetter than average November here at Kent, and it's only the second week of this month.

Rainbow.

Not seen one of these in a while, a complete 'bow as viewed from my not quite so famed east-facing mother's bedroom window today as the wet changeable theme continue.

Halloween

The obligatory Halloween doodle.

Rough Ol' Day

Summing up this time of the year.

Big Bird

Did this for a friend who is an impressionist, but do you recognise the bird?

Not The News

As the various local newspaper media faces another hard working week.

Scottish Life.

Did this doodle for a couple who are living in the far reaches of the Scottish Highlands.

My Doodle Blog.

 This is my doodle blog . . .

https://thegreatdoodle.blogspot.com/

 . . . if you are interested in looking at all my past doodles.

However, I have decided to stop putting new doodle materials into that blog and instead will appear in this very blog right here amongst my photography. It's where I have decided to consolidate everything into as one ongoing blog.

Macro Rainbow

If you look really closely at a fur on a black cat under sunlight, you could see that it isn't entirely black but made up of millions of tiny iridescent-like colour. Much like how snow isn't entirely white but millions of colour all scattered about.

Yes, the telly is rubbish today.

Taking Shelter

Some random guy made a dash for shelter during heavy rain at the harbour area this morning while I was under the arches waiting for someone.
I only had my £99 Sony mobile camera to hand, but I like the way this photo came out.

"I would have got away with it if it weren't for them pesky kids".

Have finally spotted a Scooby Doo "Mystery Machine" van here at Folkestone on a gloomy damp Wednesday morning, so that's another thing ticked off in my "photo spotters book, even if I only had the mobile phone camera to hand.

Breakfast At Tiffiny's

Not quite, it's just mother and the cat in the morning.

"Dad, it's treat time".

A peckish Jet this afternoon.

Summing Up Our Weather

Finally we have been getting some proper soaking rain much to the relief of my parched lawn. Trouble is, the changeable weather is making it difficult knowing what to wear when going out.

Evening At Harbour

Folkestone inner harbour on a calm May's evening.

Actually, I hurried down there after seeing reports on Facebook of bioluminsence (tiny light emitting sea algae) being spotted in that area, but I didn't see anything of the sort and I didn't want to go home empty handed with my camera.

Stanier Black 5

Finally ticked something off in my "bucket list", seeing an actual Stanier Black 5 (my favourite type of steam locomotive) in the flesh for the first time as she raced through Shakespeare Cliff at a fair ol' lick.
It was a challenge with my camera as light levels suddenly changed from brilliant sunshine to dark clouds in seconds.

Lighting Test.

Had a play about with a "left over" photo from that recent late night colourful photo session. Jet then sat on the stool wondering what I was doing and he just happened to be in the right "zone", I fiddled about with the photo and greyscaled it to see how the lighting looked like and thought it was rather cool.
