A Day Out on the Wherry Albion
Wednesday 19th of June 2024
One of the members of my local photography club is involved in maintaining an old wherry – boats which were used to transport goods around Norfolk before trains and cars became common. I and some other members of the club were offered the chance to spend a day on one of the wherries, the Albion, with the provisio that we provide the Norfolk Wherry Trust with a few pictures each for promotional p…

Backlog: December 2019
Thursday 2nd of February 2023
Finally, the last month of 2019! As with the previous month, finding pictures wasn’t actually a struggle for a change; in fact I had to be quite selective to reduce the choice to just these ones. Even so, three of them are from the same morning fog adventure, and two are pictures I’d previously not really paid much attention to. It’s interesting what a fresh pair of eyes can reveal. This image is …

Backlog: September 2018
Monday 4th of November 2019
September is when the Raveningham Country Fair takes place, so of course we took Em to see it. There’s lots to see — steam engines, birds of prey, arts and crafts, and classic cars. steam engines at Raveningham Country Fair bird of prey Zoe and Em and a shiny rainbow unicorn Since she’s quite mobile by this point, Em loves looking around the garden and garage. She obviously has no sense of self-pres…

Holiday in Malta 2017, day 3 (part 1)
Wednesday 19th of April 2017
Today was quite a busy one, so I’m splitting this post into two parts to avoid having 33 pictures one one page. blue railings on a red wall First up: the Blue Grotto. We had planned on going here the previous day but the bus didn’t show up, which turned out to be a good thing as it started raining not long after we got on a different bus to head back to the flat. hikers at the airport bus stop The…

Lowestoft and cloudy
Monday 20th of March 2017
It had been a “mostly cloudy” kind of day, but the occasional break for some sunlight gave me hope so I went for a wander around Lowestoft pier and waterfront. Alas, almost no sun. Plenty of rocks and rust though! ‘Warning Drop’ sign on sea wall rusty fence support on sea wall fishing trawler and reflection fishing trawler deck harbour entrance harbour entrance light sea wall rocks covered in seaw…

Fuji 14mm at the beach
Sunday 16th of August 2015
Strictly speaking I shouldn’t be doing this. The rules state that one should only use a single lens for the year, and I chose the Fuji 35mm f/1.4, yet here I am dallying with the 14mm f/2.8. In my defence, I like to think I’ve been photographing for long enough now that maybe I don’t need to stick quite so rigidly to what is essentially a learning exercise. I’m still primarily shooting with the …

Holiday in Malta, Day 7
Tuesday 8th of April 2014
Posts in this series: Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Day 8 My last full day in Malta, and it was a lazy one – I got up late, and didn’t really go anywhere adventurous, instead opting to go to Marsaxlokk again for lunch with my parents. Before that, though, I went for a walk around Birżebbuġa since I’d not really explored it much yet. backlit street sidelit postbox fruit seller newly-bui…
