Hello World – This is Me!

Blogging 101. Day 1. Task 1 – Introduce myself and my blog. Yes, I have signed up for another WordPress project! Some of you might already know a bit about me and this blog, so apologies for any repetitions. Hopefully I will be meeting some new people too.

Back to Work

A fairly easy introduction back into the workplace today. Thankfully there were no disasters while I was away and no-one had cleared my desk or office. No nasties in my email inbox either. Good to start in a positive way, although I was not exactly filled with enthusiasm. I have spent most of this evening… Read More Back to Work

Cycles and Punts

A title that needs to be handled with care. Today was the last workshop for the Inspired Light photography course, as we turned up fully loaded and ready to shoot everything that moved or threatened to move in the beautiful city of Cambridge. We were not blessed with sunshine, but it was reasonably mild and we were… Read More Cycles and Punts

Photography Class

The class this evening focused on critical feedback on our own work, and it was very pleasing and reassuring to hear favourable comments from professional photographers. It encourages me to pursue my interest further, to learn more and to become even better. I include three of my favourite shots for your enjoyment.

I have also been busy doing photographic things on my computer this evening in… Read More Maxed Out

Composure and Composition

The day began with clearing the snow from my car which I didn’t clear yesterday, but now it was frozen on. At least I didn’t have the walk to the station and instead gave my arms some exercise with the scraper. I was interviewing for locum staff today, so hurriedly had to compose some suitably penetrating questions.… Read More Composure and Composition

Exposure

The photography workshop was very educational, but a true artist has to suffer, and being exposed to the elements this morning certainly put us to the test. This hobby can be expensive because of all the photographic equipment one is tempted to buy, but there are additional costs in terms of in(thermal)vesting in some good… Read More Exposure
