Blue Skies

Sadly, it was rain, rain, rain today, so it’s nice to look at this and remember.





Self-portrait in weird location

29 04 2008

I couldn’t resist this excessively shiny black floor as a medium for a self-portrait.

A Pause

27 04 2008

I was at a conference this weekend. I took my laptop, intending to put up a post via the hotel’s internet access. But by the time the dancing had finished at 12.30 midnight by the time we had finished discussing the important matters of the day, I wasn’t really up to getting to grips with the hotel’s internet connection, so I fell into bed instead (not literally).

This picture was taken on my journey into Central London. My connecting train was cancelled, so I took the opportunity to capture the shadows at the beginning of the day.

A Hint of Candyfloss

22 04 2008

I do wonder if my post titles are being affected by one of my current activities, which is buying tester paint-pots to try out on the walls of our newly-refurbished bathroom: mellow sage, couscous, noodle, jersey cream (other shades are available).

This is quite different picture to many of those that I post of Jenny. It doesn’t show anything of her humour that is so much part of our lives.





Playing with the shutter speed . . . or is it playing with me?

Bathroom

19 04 2008

Whilst we were away, we had our bathroom refitted. We moved the glass-fronted bathroom cabinet out into a neighbouring room, but somehow the glass shattered, leaving a pile of safety glass on the carpet. We need to replace the cabinet; for now it acts a makeshift stand for toothpaste and other bits.
