For several days my wife has been watching the long distance weather forecast with an intensity that isn’t usual – unless there is an outdoor Women’s Institute event scheduled, which there was, a driveway sale. We had everything in place, during the week members of her branch have been bringing contributions. Every evening would watchContinue reading “115/366 The weekend”

114/366 The Starlings
Oh dear, what a dilemma. I am in the lucky position of having three blog posts lined up. It’s not that any one of them is time critical, it’s the excitement in the anticipation of writing them. I suppose the first thing I should say that although the post title is Starlings, the photo isContinue reading “114/366 The Starlings”
113/366 Technological Impatience
So I had this idea about technological impatience. Now, what I’m talking about is films. I sometimes find it difficult to watch some films from the 70’s and 80’s. I can’t help thinking that things like mobile phones and decent computers . I think it’s mostly in crime shows. That seems to be the areaContinue reading “113/366 Technological Impatience”
112/366 A ring or Bright Water
It was raining for this mornings walk. I got water on the lens. This was the effect. You’ll be saying the pictures has no relation to the title of this post – that’s correct, I needed something to cheer me up. Why’s that? I always look forward to the arrival of my magazines. This weekContinue reading “112/366 A ring or Bright Water”
111/366 A busy Bird Table
OK, bear with me, I know the picture is unrelated to the title. Firstly, the bird table. I came downstairs mid morning to make a cup of tea (I’m WFH). I had loaded the bird table early in the morning, and it appears that the starlings fly around different feeding points. There were easily aContinue reading “111/366 A busy Bird Table”
110/366 Boats in the Mist
From Monday morning, I see this scene every morning that I go for a walk. The boats are always there, I can’t recall them ever moving. This one morning, last Monday (30 Nov) was the first Misty morning for quite a while. I’ve been looking forward to seeing one, so I was determined to getContinue reading “110/366 Boats in the Mist”
109/366 A misty morning
Or, should it be a ghostly image? This morning’s mist has provided a bunch of pictures that i quite like and which I can spin out over the next few days. Take this one for example, a simple street scene but notice the ghostly apparition walking along the double yellow line? How did I getContinue reading “109/366 A misty morning”
108/366 The Bird table
Firstly, let me say, I have only just noticed my error, and I’ve been doing this for almost a third of a year (indeed, only 14 days short of 122 days), because it’s a leap year. It’s not out of 365, but 366. I will have to remember to keep that going. I was goingContinue reading “108/366 The Bird table”
107/365 Out & About
I went out for a walk this afternoon, not far only a couple of miles, but I had a reason for going out. I’ve bought a GoPro Hero9 video camera. One of the main reasons I bought this particular model were the. Claims about stabilisation (bear with me). I knew GoPro’s had a good reputationContinue reading “107/365 Out & About”
106/365 The Snapshot and Art
The monthly magazine, Black & White Photography turned up on Tuesday. As usual, I put aside The Story of Art to read it, and I’ll do the same when my other favourite magazine, Country Walking arrives sometime in the next few days. Usually when I read the magazine at least one of the articles sparksContinue reading “106/365 The Snapshot and Art”
