Scotland – The Isle of Staffa – Basalt Columns, Fingals Cave and Puffins…
I’ve been going through some of my old photos and pulled out some from a camping trip to Scotland. It’s been a few years since the visit and I’m definitely planning a trip there sometime this year, I’ve seen some inspirational photography from various people on flickr and it makes me want to get back […]
I’m sure I’ve been here before…
On Saturday evening my wife and I decided to head to the coast and she kindly agreed to let me chase the sun for sunset. It’s not that fun when you’re not into photography like me driving around trying to find that perfect place. We set off with the intent of going to Swanage, with […]
Avebury – Wiltshire
This morning I headed to Averbury, I set my alarm for 4:30, I clearly remember waking at 4:30 and turning off the alarm. Then the next thing I knew, it was 5:30… So, I rushed around, the dogs were excited to see I was getting ready to go out, little did they know that they […]
Kimmeridge Bay, Warbarrow Bay, Lulworth Cove and Durdle Dor…
Last weekend I went to Kimmeridge Bay on the Jurassic coast. I arrived just before 5:00 am and it was only a 1 minute walk from the car park to the beach itself, so carrying all my equipment was a nice easy. There was a sliver of the moon in the sky, but enough to […]
Dungeness & Camber Sands…
I’m so behind on blogging at the moment, it’s unbelievable. I’m going to blog dump this weekend and get up to date… I took a trip to Dungeness and Camber Sands on the 2nd April. Dungeness was absolutely fantastic, what an amazing place, the only thing that let it down was the weather, it was […]
The Natural History Museum…
I had a recent trip to the Natural History Museum with a friend who had picked up a Canon 7D. Love the camera, but I’ll definitely be sticking with my 50d for the time being. The journey to the museum from my house is pretty straight forward by car, but when you get there, parking […]
Transfer complete…
I transferred my previous blog posts from 2004. Haven’t read them for a while and have to say it brought back a lot of memories about the journey and the amazing people I met on that journey… It’s amazing how life can start to fly by and you forget the lesons you learnt during your […]
Moving to blogspot…
Finally got a blogspot created and I’m transferring all of my previous blog entries from Windows Live Spaces… They are entries from the past, but I enjoyed writing them back then and carry a lot of good memories…
Day 11 – It’s a long way back from Tipperary… I mean Shuwak…
I awoke at 7:00 this morning in dire need of coffee, the accommodation was more than adequate and definitely an improvement on the hotel we had been staying in. We each had a room, there were provisions for making tea and coffee (sachets Nescafe of 3 in 1 coffee). We had a few jobs to […]
Day 10 – It’s a long way to Tipperary… Err I mean Shuwak.
I agreed with Carlo last night that we should get an early start in the morning so we ca make an early start on the work before we set off. When we left last night we still hadn’t received our security clearance so we wouldn’t be leaving at the advertised time of 8:30 anyway. I […]
