More Power
To go with my new flashguns, I thought I’d better stock up on some batteries.
Dog Cam
This arrived in the post this week. It’s a video camera.
New Flashgun
Today’s shot is of one of my latest acquisitions, a new Yongnuo YN565EX, which is the Yongnuo equivalent of the Canon 580 EXII. Only it costs 1/3 of the price of the Canon.
Pylon in the Fog
Today’s photo comes from a cycle ride around the north of Letchworth out in the fields.
I liked the opaque nature of the sky as the pylon disappears into the fog.
Concert Audience
Today’s shot comes from another concert. This one was from my choir’s Christmas concert at the United Reformed Church in Baldock.
College in the Winter Sun
Today’s shot is of the North Hertfordshire College building in the Broadway in Letchworth Town Centre.
Street Life
I don’t do much street photography, but really should get into it a bit more.
Early Morning Squirrel
Today’s shot was taken at around 7.15 in the morning as I arrived home from a night shift.
We get lots of these in the garden every day.
Some more New Toys
These bad boys arrived in the post today. A set of off-camera ETTL triggers by Yongnuo to take use with off-camera flashgun work.
Another Hobby – Phase Two
So I’ve constructed the model soldiers and this is them having been undercoated with primer spray.
Once they’re dry, I can begin painting them.
Another Hobby
When I was much younger, I used to collect, paint and wargame with miniature figures.
A few years ago I sold my collection on ebay, but over the last 2 or 3 years have been buying some 28mm plastic Napoleonic figures.
TV Abstract
Today’s shot was taken before going to bed. I decided to try a macro shot with the compact of the TV screen.
Moon over Letchworth
I saw the moon in a late afternoon walked in to town and shot it with the compact.
Another Tess Shot
Another quick shot of Tess as we went for a walk over to Norton Common.
Another Tess Shot
Just a quick shot of Tess in the garden before I went off to work.
Morrisons
Today’s shot was taken on another walk in to town.
Tess and Sarah
My middle daughter is home from university to work at the Police Commissioner Elections.
Sunset over the A1
Today’s shot was another on a cycle ride. I noticed the sunset as I crossed over the top of the A1 Motorway.
One last Email
Taken at bed time.
My New Laptop
I bought a new laptop today. My old one seems to be completely dead, so I treated myself to a brand new 8GB RAM machine.
St. George’s
Today’s shot was taken on a cycle ride. I stopped off to grab a few film shots on a box camera and fired off one of the same subject on the phone.
Sunset over the Wires
I went out into the countryside north of Letchworth with a couple of old box cameras and some 120 film.
Letchworth Houses
Today’s shot was taken during a bike ride around the outskirts of Letchworth.
This is a row of old houses on the road from Letchworth Hall Hotel towards Willian village.
The Facade
Today’s shot was taken on my walk into town.
I’ve posted a few different shots of the Town Hall, which has been empty for a couple of years.
How tidy is my Office?
Today’s shot shows where I spend most of my time away from work.
Fortunately, it’s only me who has to sit here.
The Bushel & Strike
Tonight I broke my record in cycling. I only started 2 months ago and could barely manage a couple of miles.
Now I go out 4 or 5 times a week and ride between 5 and 15 miles.
Walking Past
Today’s shot was taken on a bike ride home from the town centre.
Night Rider
This is my bike setup for an evening ride. I love riding at night and love riding in the rain, which is just as well in the UK.
