On a trip into town the other week I got dropped off in a taxi as near as I could to the market place (what's left of it anyway!!) and walked the rest. This is when I took a better look at what was around me to see if I could make any pictures out of it. And I was lucky. There is a scene waiting to be captured of some beer barrels outside the back of a pub, in a blink and you will miss it corner of the lane. I stood looking at it seeing if it worked, then sat down to take its composition. It looked a bit dark and dingy, which was perfect for the image I had in mind. The results are as follows below along with a second set of pictures taken of a side of an old house, with more wall than windows and peeling of paint. I think these pictures work, but I just don't have a file they can go in on the site. So I am showing them only on this blog as extras and random stuff/ I hope you like them?
RANDOM Images
Random Stuff !!!
Just a few random things I snapped while being at Mum and Dads. It got to the golden hour and this beautiful light was streaming through the front window, gently lighting up the scatter pillows on the settee. It seemed to pick out the fabrics textures and subtle colours which I liked. There for a fleeting moment, then gone all to fast. I also took snaps of a glass of orange juice with metallic straw against a black glass outdoor table and a riot of colours from the garden in the background.
An hour in the life cycle of BBC News 24
I was bored one day, something that does not happen very often as when I do feel bored, I just go to sleep. End of problem. But this time I grabbed my camera and tasked myself to find things of interest on BBC News 24 channel in one hour. Surprisingly I found and a variety of different things including Rihanna at the Super Bowl, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. Government select committees, Earthquakes in Turkey and Syria, The war in the Ukraine.weather reports, and Boris Johnsons financial shenanigans. Not bad for one hours worth of news? And highlighting the fact that I either have nothing better to do with my time, or too much time on my hands. You decide.

So what’s this all about? Well you have to do something in this dystopian world so I thought I would do a bunch of things just for the fun of it. So collected here is a few of the best oil on water creations done on my dining table. Some apple blossom photographed in my mini studio after it fell of the tree. An interesting pot plant and slowed down water droplets into a cup.
