Snapshots…
So this is Christmas…
Like you I’ve spent far too much money, written lots of lists and trudged around far too many shops for my liking.
Autumn Mists
It’s dark in the morning now when I rise for work. There’s a chill in the air and that familiar reluctance to emerge from under the warm duvet has returned. As the long hot summer fades away to reveal the coming autumn the light is noticeably different now…
No tripod necessary…
This one was taken while on a walk at Snuff Mills in Bristol after heavy overnight rain. When we reached the weir the river was running pretty fast and wild. Here I’ve experimented with a longer shutter exposure – but with no tripod at my disposal I had to attempt the task hand held!
Summer is here…
At last! The Summer holidays have finally and mercifully arrived. A handful of weeks with the promise of catching up with life, the absence of an alarm clock and a blessed relief from the classroom.
Get the bunting out!
Yes, get the bunting out and blow up the party balloons because it’s my birthday today. And it’s a milestone year – I’ve actually managed somehow to make it to 60 years of age.
Bristol Harbourside stroll
Bristol’s Harbourside area is full of history and interesting things to photograph. I passed through during an early morning stroll to check out Whapping Wharf. Here are a couple of photographs taken on my Sony RX100 II camera.
Church views
After another hard day in the “office” I decided to cut through St Mary Redcliffe church on the way home. It was a sunny day and the light inside was good so I had a quick wander and saw a few things I’d not seen before.
The return of film
I came across my old analogue film camera, a Pentax P30n to be precise. I haven’t used, or even seen this camera for a very, very long time. I’d forgotten all about it. Or that there was still a film in it…oooops!
Soggy Easter
It’s Easter Sunday today and there’s a possibility of snow forecast for tomorrow. It will definitely rain, heavily, much as it has all week.
Still waiting for Spring
That’s the first week of my Easter holidays gone by and the weather has been cold, wet and miserable…
