I know I’ve posted (variations) of this image on numerous occasions, but I think each one is different. This one strikes me as being a bit atmospheric, even if I think so myself, so as usual – I like it. And so to tonight’s piece. Earlier in this week’s writings, I spoke about a film,Continue reading “229/366 Good writing / Writing Good!”

What with nearly 28 miles completed, I think it’s reasonable to say that the week has been reasonably successful. I have been fortunate to be able to get out every day, and every day has been a pleasure. My worst day was yesterday, but even that, at 2.36 miles, that was a success, achieving asContinue reading “228/366 From a Walking point of view…”

I’m not really sure what the problem is. I certainly have more than enough equipment. I know it isn’t just a matter of setting up and starting recording. Whilst I could do that, with no preparation, and no real subject, it would be an incoherent production. There are then, two issues preparation and subject. PreparationContinue reading “227/366 I am thinking about Vlogging”

I don’t know how many pictures I’ve taken this week. I’m willing to bet that it’s not far short of 100. That equates to three rolls of film. The last time I shot a roll of film would have been the early nineties. Between 1992 when I left Berlin and when I acquired my firstContinue reading “226/366 Favourite Picture”

The picture is absolutely nothing at all to do with the weather. I took it this morning, and with a little bit of cropping, I thought I wonder what that looks like In B&W? I have to say I quite like it, OK, perhaps I should give you one which does bear a passing resemblanceContinue reading “225/366 The Weather”

Two photographs for you; Same Camera, same time, same picture. The first picture taken with the iPhone in Live mode. Those brief few seconds of movement that are Live don’t translate across to WordPress, so you can’t see the movement. Live mode on the iPhones camera has always annoyed me, I’ve never seen the pointContinue reading “224/366 IT does that?!”

Not a picture of the waterfront, about halfway down the half of the High Street on the left hand side as you are walking towards the waterfront is St Mary’s church this is where the Magnolia tree is growing. A Magnolia in mono seems just about right. Without driving anywhere, there are only a coupleContinue reading “223/366 Out for a Walk”

It’s Magazine Time again, issue 250 of B&W Photography turned up last week, and I have spent the last few days reading it with pleasure – I must admit I didn’t enjoy No. 249 as much as this one. Don’t know why. There were several pieces, apart from the news and the general articles thatContinue reading “222/366 B&W Photography No 250”

I managed to get out for a walk yesterday and today. Only a total of five miles, but that takes my total walked since the beginning of the year to over 250 miles, so I am on target for Walk1000, which is good. It’s been a very successful walking week, I managed to get myContinue reading “221/366 Out for a walk”

I must as well be up front, I have done absolutely nothing in respect of the the Vlogg. Not good enough at all, but time just seems to go so quickly. I should do a time analysis thing, because I’m sure that I waste a lot of time. The leads me in to the wholeContinue reading “220/366 Out for a walk – Not Vlogging”
