So, into Day 12 we go

Still spending time getting the blog running, so not been out and about, well at least that is my excuse for avoiding the cold and miserable day outside. Following on from yesterday, decided to make this week about things I love. Gives me a focus for the week and means I have a starting point [...]

New Galleries should make viewing images a bit easier

Although I have noticed they are a bit slow to download now, will look into that. Another side effect of the change is the comments made against individual images have gone. Sorry about that, feel free to add them again if you like, but at the moment comments can ony go against and entire post [...]

Day 11 and I call in the reserves

Today was proof positive that this is going to be a hard task to achieve. Finally got time to think about the image for today at 9pm. I wanted to do something that was going to be different to things I had done before and didn’t want it to be a picture of snow (still [...]

The day of 3S: Snowboard, Sledge and Snowman

Who’d have thought we’d ever comprehend getting the snowboard out in the UK. Admittedly, we shouldn’t have, the thaw beat us and the venture for snowboarding was unsucessful, but the homemade sledge and the snowman were fun. Today I learnt that carrying the camera gives me the opportunity for the photo, even if it is [...]

Too windy to walk on day 9

Could not muster the motivation to get outside today. Very windy and pretty much constantly snowing. I’m am not set up for wet weather photography. So it was a late night shoot once the winds had dropped a bit and the snow had eased. So apologies, but these were taken just metres from our front [...]

there’s'now let up on day 8

Good grief, the snow it just keep coming. Love it! Finally a good session out with the camera. Some shots I quite like, think if it stops snowing long enough I’ll be popping out with the macro lens and tripod (and no sproglies) tomorrow to try a couple of shots again, some times my hand [...]

So, one week in ….

… how is it going? It has been a tough week for time, many jobs to get done, but still managed to ensure at least one image is captured a day. Next week I will try to make sure more of them are considered rather than snapshot. Think as time progresses the photo a day [...]

day 7 is a sorting day

Who’d have thought there was so much admin after Christmas. The introduction of children into my life means that there are things to do that never even crossed my mind. Post Christmas one of these is sorting through all the new toys and the already loved ones to make space for them all. This year, [...]

day 6 and bring on the snow

Finally we got some of the snow the rest of the country was enjoying/hating. I am loving it. So, a couple of night shots of the biggest tree in the garden, using a bit of light painting with the husbands powerful “torch”.

blog building on day 5

Caught between a rock and a hard place today. Child free day, needed to get blog running, but also wanted to be out taking photos. Long term view meant I sacrificed getting out there with camera, so that I’d have something to display my efforts on. So, instead, I took some images closer to home. [...]
