This is going back a few months and another result of my ongoing ‘photograph housekeeping’. It is a section of a crystal lampshade I saw in a shop a few months ago.I hope you have a great day.

Some bling!
Fairground
This is a section of a giant Ferris wheel that was at the London Christmas fair last year.
I can admit that I was not brave enough to have a ride.
It is another photograph I found during the ???photograph housekeeping??? exercise I have been doing of late.
The neon sign
This is a picture I took a while back with a lens I had just bought.
Remembering how pleased I was with my new toy makes me smile now.
I took it from the inside of the window.
Tulips in the window
This is a picture of some tulips that I took this afternoon.
Once again it is very cold today, but at least the sun made a very welcome appearance. Everything is much better when the sun shines.
The forecast says it will be sunny over the weekend too. It would be great if this is true.
In any case, have a great weekend.
Well, hello there!
Yes, a whole month has gone by since I last posted anything and so much has changed – It’s a new year for starters!
Ahem, my manners… Happy New Year everyone!
Even though they have not found their way on here (yet), I have been taking a few pictures of late.
Meanwhile, here is something I took this afternoon.
Have a great day.
The end is nigh!
Truly, 2008 is fast coming to an end.
Sadly for me, I have spent most of the last few days in bed nursing myself back to health having been hit by the worst flu bug ever!
I will have to rely on some older photos for now until I have the strength to get out there and capture any new shots. Today, I present a bright and sunny day at the seaside.
Enjoy!
Home…
I took this picture in Florida a few years ago.
Sadly I never did get to find out who lived down this hole. I really wanted to tell the little creature that its home was rather nice.
Perhaps one day he will visit this site and find out that I meant no harm when I called out to him ; -)

A flash of colour
This is a picture I took recently at St. Olav’s church in London.
I am rather pleased with this one as it turned out exactly as I wanted it to. Special thanks to my friend who initially spotted the picture opportunity and also Mother Nature who provided me with the most excellent lighting.
After I had taken the shot, a large cloud drifted in front of the sun and the shadow disappeared.

Take 2! Of late, I have felt a bit lacking in “colour” so I went out in search of colour and came up with a cheeky photo which you can see here. Just in case it was too cheeky, I also posted this cloud today. I am not saying which I prefer!
A couple of years ago, I did some work for an online business magazine. The editor will often frown when he read an article one of his journalist had written, commenting that it “had no colour”.
“Colour” I came to understand was the pizzazz that transformed an article from a dull and boring report into a fun and interesting read.
Of late, I have felt a bit lacking in “colour” so I went out in search of colour and came up with this. In case it is too cheeky, I have also posted this alternative cloud for today! Either way, have a great day.
