An indifferent bunch of pictures tonight so a fairly lame offering. Liked the clarity but that was auto focus and decent number of pixels and nothing to do with me.

Sunshine and grass probably a welcome sight after the winter so far.

Yet another British pub crumbling to the ground, a much too frequent sight these days.

Maidstone by night, taken from Blubell Hill. Nightmare photo with an exposure time of over 2 seconds needed a steady camera and manually focussing on a myriad of focus points meant results could have been better. Tripod next time.

Because I particularly like this picture in the bedroom but did not want to take a picture of a picture.

Probably 50 shots of the cloud drifting across in front of the full moon, this is the best but still not what I wanted. Will try again another evening.

Number 2, stayed in today so a picture of our cat Lottie emerging from the base of the Christmas Tree. A hiding place she will be losing in the next day or so.

Photo taken at 00.10 on New Year's Day. We had 6 Chinese lanterns to be released by the kids on New Year's eve, they joined the hundreds of similar objects floating across the night sky that evening and early morning. I took loads of pictures trying to get one that captured the lantern, the flame and the contrast against the night sky. Not sure what setting I used to get this to work.

A New Camera

My present to myself - Canon EOS 500D
Mission - to take, and post a photograph a day for the year.
The road to hell is filled with good intent, it is now making that intention into an actionable plan.
