This is a picture from part of the route that I normally follow. I have been following this walk for literally years. It’s not that I am bored with the walk. I’m not. But, there are other walks in the town. There aren’t other walks that I am aware of that have the same setContinue reading “298/366 Walking”

Perhaps a subtitle should be; “For a Plan”, with a sub-subtitle of “to plan for a plan” for a blog. I’m not sure I can do that, it kind of changes the purpose of the blog, but on the other hand haven’t I been doing that? For many weeks now, I have been working reasonablyContinue reading “297/366 A Nice Day”

It appears that Friday, which is writing about writing is turning into a review of the weeks writings. After last weeks review, I found that it was a bit of a pain to go in to each blog, re-read it, make a note that I can write about. I bought an A5 diary towards theContinue reading “296/366 Diaries, Journals & Blogs”

Last night I spoke about photographic opportunities. Tonight I’m supposed to write about the weather, according to my self imposed schedule. I think today provided me with an opportunity for a photo that I like and a topic that I’m interested in. When I left the house for my morning walk, there was a distinctContinue reading “295/366 Opportunities”

What I wanted to do was to get the boat sat on top of the pole, I couldn’t go back any further without going over the side of the bridge, and I couldn’t move in the right direction to get the boat to line up. As it happens, I still like the picture, very much.Continue reading “294/366 Photographic Opportunities”

It’s been a strange day. Mostly I got everything done that I planned. The only trouble was whenever I sat down, I wanted to go to sleep. I sat down at about 2PM, and decided to just give in. I slipped in and out, and finally surfaced at about 4. Even at the weekend, IContinue reading “293/366 An Afternoon nap”

On my walk around Gosport today, I went to a part where I don’t normally go. No particular reason, it’s just not on my route. It’s along the waterfront at Gosport Marina, not Haslar Marina, the other one. It has been a gloriously sunny day, it was far too nice to stay in. I decidedContinue reading “292/366 Is this Gosport?”

I’ve just finished reading this months issue of country walking. There was an article about pieces of art placed in naturally beautiful locations. I acknowledge that I haven’t visited any of them. If I haven’t visited any of them, how can I possibly comment on them? Can I even ask the question is it appropriateContinue reading “291/366 Outside Art”

I caught this picture behind Trinity Church out on my afternoon walk. I’d had a good morning, clearing the birdseed out that the messy so and so’s chuck everywhere, but they are such a joy to watch that I don’t really mind. I had a bit of a stint on the microscopes, they are allContinue reading “290/366 Saturday”

I think I’ve realised the mistake I have been making with this photo. I’ve tried it several times, and although the reflection is excellent, it’s not as true as I can make it, because of the buildings in the upper part. I need to try it from a slightly different perspective. Learning something about aContinue reading “289/366 The Week”
