Photo365 – Day 162 – The Price of Gold

I was at the petrol station today and, as I’m sure you’re aware, the cost to fill up a tank is now stupendous. Will it soon be as valuable as gold? Perhaps that’s why they supply gloves! I came back with what I’d intended to shoot…a bunch of shots of poppies, but it was this […]

Photo365 – Day 161 – Olympic tape

I bought some tape…like Sellotape… but from a pound shop. It’s quite annoying that they sell 5 rolls for £1, so it makes people think they have a bargain. But the amount of tape on each roll is so little that the total on all five rolls is probably less than on one good quality […]

Photo365 – Day 160 – resyncing with water melons

Tonight I installed lightroom and am re syncing my catalogue. As I do this I’m working my way through a bag of water melon sweets from one of those old fashioned sweet shops. If you’ve never tried these and have a sweet tooth I’d highly recommend them. Yum Yum… The shot was taken with the […]

Photo365 – Day 159 – Loading programs

I’m almost back to where I was at the weekend before the computer drive died…although still behind on the photo365 project I managed to squeeze a few photos in. And am playing catch up now. This was taken yesterday using the self timer to add to my above lap shots of me feeding my face. […]

Photo365 – Day 158 – grrr…f***ing computers

Day three without a PC so I decided to take it to David to see if he could fix it. Result – The Seagate 500Gb Sata harddrive is kaput. It’s the second drive to die in less than a year! This one just gave up without a real warning. No virus, no grinding noises. Luckily […]

Photo365 – Day 156 – Observer

My last blog was titled unlucky and the following night I was unlucky…my computer hard drive decide to stop working and went into a loop on boot. As the windows logo appeared I saw a quick flash of that famous blue screen of death and then a reboot. I back everything up luckily but it’s […]

Photo365 – Day 155 – Unlucky

I went out in the centre of Worksop with the Oympus EP2 and 14-42mm zoom to do a bit of street photography. This was my favourite from the short session. I’ve titled it unlucky for obvious reasons.

Photo365 – Day 154 – skull

I’m not sure why but skulls fascinate me. This one taken this morning on a garden table is of a medium sized bird -probably a blackbird or starling. It was found in a shed. I used the Pentax K20 and 100mm macro.

Photo365 – Day 153 – Letter Z

The final part of my alphabet series is the letter Z taken in the garden of a spinning washing drier. I looked around for where the best cross over of lines was, and then span it round to an appropriate background. Taken with the Pentax K5 and 100mm macro lens.
