Into Milano
Into MilanoSamsung Galaxy S
It's not all fun fun fun as a Zamyatinite, sometimes we have to fly to nice places and run between transfers and drive for ages to get to where we are going and then have a four hour meeting. Still a view of the Alps is a bonus when you're flying from Zurich to Milan readying yourself for the airport and a drive to Lugano.

Despite what I said about HDR, this just looks good and since the camera on the Samsung is so bad into the sun I think I needed it.

Gloomy Wednesday
Gloomy WednesdayNikon D5000
Blimey two pictures in one day, such lucky people you are.

This chap is from our house and not black and white believe it or not. I went out back for one reason or another and saw the moon was shining as bright as anything and splashing off the tiles on the roof next door and what with the telephone wires I thought it was a good picture... I could be wrong. Despite that by the time I got my camera the cloud started up and I stood there like a plum in my back garden for about five or ten minutes... yes that's the sort of commitment you get at Zamyatin. It was cold too, add that to the commitment stakes.

So there you go a pretty poor picture (because I would like to have got some definition of the moon but then again I don't think it was really possible, so I think I should be glad of what I got. No doubt if I showed this to my Wife I would get the usual that I get when I take a picture... “It's too dark”... you decide.

Spring Has Sprung
Spring Has SprungNikon D5000
Finally out of the house, not only has Spring sprung but so am I, sprung from all sorts. Not the best day for pictures and in fact the picture I should have taken should have been in my own back garden but there you go, somehow I decided not to take the shot jst because I couldn't be bothered which is a shame because I think it would have been better because the scene and the light was, so instead when it was nice and grey we all headed out to Fogg Lane Park which is pretty uninspiring for me since I had never been there and there's very little of note there to be honest but my Wife used to go there as a kid and it doesn't really matter how featureless the landscape, if it's there in a memory from years ago then it takes on a whole different meaning.

So here we go, daffodils in Fogg Lane Park, let the joy be unbounded.

Duck Crem
Duck CremSamsung Galaxy S
A bit of a test today, first is the test of a walk around where we might end up living (though recent happenings may say different) and a first because it's my first HDR picture which personally I'm not sure I approve of on a photo site. To be honest if I were to do that with every one of my pics, then I may as well photoshop everything and end up with an immaculate airbrushed collection. It sort of kills the element of skill and sometimes the occasional unconventional shot just works, but then again if you're here then you don't need me to say that.

Needless to say there was nothing much happening last weekend and so all I took was my phone, you never know next weekend might be different but then again I wouldn't bet on it.

Eagle In Flight
Eagle In FlightNikon D5000
It's been a long time since I took a picture and I think it will be again, but I thought I would grace you with an archive pic from Chester Cathedral. I spent a while taking pictures of this bird and I think this is the best one.

The reason why I took so long is because I wanted to get it right, and I'm not sure I have, I fired off a load of shots to get it right but in the end we have this one. I could see the light coming in from the window in shafts but couldn't capture it as much as I would have liked.

Anyway enjoy the snap
