We’ve got a reasonable selection of books. I’ve not read most of them. I thought I would take the opportunity to read some of them. Thing is, I think I’ve got the bug. So now, I have a dilemma. I am currently reading the Photographers eye, As you might expect it’s making me think aboutContinue reading “18/365 Book Choice”

17/365 Hoverflies
They say you should never publish any of your bad work. Is this a bad picture? We have two trees at the bottom of our garden. In the space between them there are a bunch of five or six hover flies that gather. They are quite mesmerising to watch, and I would love to getContinue reading “17/365 Hoverflies”
16/365 – A Light Fitting
OK, admittedly a slightly unusual photograph, but it is one taken today. So I am maintaining the intention of taking a picture everyday. We were having problems with a new light fitting, the bulbs wouldn’t fit. An electrician had tried, we definitely had the correct bulbs (G9), they just would not fit in the holder.Continue reading “16/365 – A Light Fitting”
15/365 I nearly forgot
Not only did i nearly not go for a walk this morning, I almost forgot to do my daily blog. I have every intention of writing something everyday, even if I have nothing to write about. During the week I do my facebook entry, but this is a follow up, which I very much wantContinue reading “15/365 I nearly forgot”
14/365 The Boat
The boat in question is the £5.5m racing yacht. I got to the waterfront, as the project managers, and technical experts were considering the move. I wanted to watch the move, but they were obviously taking their time. As usual, I walked away, only to look back a few minutes later, to see the boatContinue reading “14/365 The Boat”
13/365 A dramatic Sky
Monday I overslept, Tuesday it was rain, this morning even though slightly breezy it was dry and so I was able to get out for a walk. My reward for bothering was a lovely sky over Portsmouth. I love mornings like this. Mind you, I like a clear blue sky as well, but that isContinue reading “13/365 A dramatic Sky”
12/365 The Bird Table Redux
The bird table is at the bottom of the garden, I can’t see it from the office, so I miss out on activity on it. I installed a Neos camera and bought a cheap tablet to watch it. I haven’t quite worked out how to get photo’s from it to my collection – easy withContinue reading “12/365 The Bird Table Redux”
11/365 A meal out
We booked a meal out at a decent steak restaurant. We were celebrating two birthdays and Anniversary which we had saved up over the lockdown. We felt quite safe there. The tables were a good distance apart, and only the one waitress came anywhere near us. No something we will do very often, but itContinue reading “11/365 A meal out”
10/365 The Battle of Fallopia Balschuanica
For today’s tale, it helps if you are familiar with the lexicon of Star Trek, The Next Generation, for today I am relating to you the story of the Battle of Fallopia Balschuanica. Fallopia Balschuanica might sound like the name of a remote stellar system, but in reality it is a garden plant . LikeContinue reading “10/365 The Battle of Fallopia Balschuanica”
9/365 The Pumpkin Fairy
We have a pumpkin growing in the garden. We’ve had some marrows in the past that got to a reasonable size. I wonder how big this will get? It is always interesting to follow the progress of these things. I had to do a little bit of scrabbling around to get a picture. I wentContinue reading “9/365 The Pumpkin Fairy”
