I have had a busy day and have only just found time to wander about pointing the lens at whatever I see, which isn’t much at all as I misplaced my glasses. As you see, I have now found them.

It’s a beautiful day
Overnight frost – the first this winter! There were ice puddles to be cracked on the way down with the bin bags this morning – but the sun was shining and the sea was flat calm, with no wind to chase the waves. Too beautiful today to be confined in a windowless room, so I …
Infinite Possibilities
A large portion of the day has been spent in wrapping my grey matter around the pairing of my new camera with various devices. I have a remote shooting/viewing wi-fi-connected app now installed on both the smartphone and the tablet and the special utilities on my PC are up and running and communicating nicely. It …
New Kit
We were woken early by the unexpected arrival of my new lenses. We get two courier deliveries a week: Wednesday and Saturday and usually at lunchtime. Wednesday parcels come at 12:30 and Saturday they come at 13:10. This predictability of delivery is one of the side effects of living on a small island. I’d hesitate …
Lightly Blurred
I’m still spending a lot of time in an install-fest on my rebuilt computer. A large chunk of today went in [url=http://www.blipfoto.com/entry/3997368]creating my 365 shot[/url].

I could not resist these onions when I saw them in the shop the other day. It’s French Onion Soup for lunch today. I wish that I had checked my images before starting cooking, though. I shall have to try an onion shot again in the future and attempt to improve on the appearance of …
Kettletoft Harbour
An unremarkable image for today’s blip. Why? Today is all but wind-free. Almost dry too. In fact, the sun is out on occasion. Sadly when I had time to go out and experiment with my old and heavy 100-300mm lens on the new tripod, the sun went awol and it was spotting with rain. The …
Bread and Dip
Lunch comes to my Blip rescue once again. I made these garlic and herb baguettes to mop up the oil that was dressing our lunchtime ravioli today. There was loads of bread, and precious little oil. I really must get myself into town soon.
Papa Wheel
Life on the 59th Parallel and I put together our new Country Spinner wheel today. I took plenty of photographs and will write up the process on our website some time soon. When we had finished we decided that we needed a comparison shot of our teaching and hire machines. So, here they are, our …
