I’m away to town on Wednesday, for a day at the Orkney Science Festival. First up is a session on Pinhole Photography, at the Picky Centre. I’m going to have to find out where Pod is hiding the Altoid tins. I’ve managed to unearth some B&W film. Looking forward to being inspired. I’m in the …

Pod and the Pot
It’s veritably weeing down today. Light levels have been low all day. I’m attempting to tidy up in my workroom and make space for some “studio” work as the winter comes on. Naturally I was distracted from my task… This wee mustard pot came from the Harray Potter when we visited recently. My artist’s mannequin …

T shirts and umbrellas
What I [i]was [/i]going to say was: it’s t-shirt weather again, very warm and still. The sea is like a mill pond but there is a lot of towering cloud about and I can well believe the predictions for possible thunderstorms. Even as I was unloading the camera card, the heaven’s opened. Stair rods, cats …
Batch baking
Oh dear, yet another bread photo. Today is a boring but busy “house” day and I am unlikely to come up with any more interesting shots. That’s Granary Batch Rolls made, plus 3 white Baguettes. I’ll freeze them shortly and we shall take them to East Mainland with us next week. We shall be fully …
Turn of the season
The harvest is in and I should therefore not have been surprised last night, when languishing in the bath, to hear the first of the sleekit beasties scrabblin’ away underneath me. Ther are further signs of the season’s turn in the mass of hips that are upon the rugosa. We still have the last of …
X marks the spot
No matter how many photographs I take today, the Blip has to be this one. We no longer have an electoral station on the island and all voting is now done by post. Just making sure that these get off the island in good time. If you are reading this, could you do me a …
1801
Took the camera down to the village with me when I went to the bottle bank. Took a handful of shots – it was very still and there were good reflections in the harbour despite the grey flat light. None of them took my fancy in the end, so here is a shot of the …
A Limp Effort
I took my camera with me when I went to the surgery this morning, but saw nothing to catch my eye. It was the same story this afternoon when I went to Spinning Group. Ultimately, I found myself Blip-less. Here’s the info leaflet that I brought home this morning. It has exercises to improve the …
Mown
Back to normality after our brief holiday. No door or window fitting today – a break badly needed after tackling the bedroom window fitting. Mr L continues work on debugging the camper van. Parts have been ordered and we are begining to plan a second trip. I finished unpacking the van and cleaned it out. …
