Can not make up my mind.. yet. Will do soon ;)
Today some guy had to measure my windows because the room is getting new ones when I'm leaving, aaah! Then I realized the thing I'm going to miss most are my windows. They are so big and nice and amazing light and everything <3 But now I'm getting an apartment, so that's a lot better. But the windows are tiny ;__; Noes!
Didn't crop this on purpose!

Another hot one here today!
Pressed for time and feeling a little uninspired today!
I wandered down the street after work today to grab some milk, took my camera with me as I am now accustomed to doing . . . and look what I found . . . bins, red bins and three of them at that! Coupled with some graffiti I think they make fro some pretty decent looking trash!
There are several of us working on a 365 project, and if you'd like to follow along, here are links to the others:
Cheesy (and wonky!) I know but it made me smile! And I'm behind on my pregnacy photo project, so wanted to do this one before I'm in week 25.
I've got more ideas of what I want to do in the next few weeks...so watch this space!
Just one week on Teneriffa, Spain, Canary Islands, Europe with my Fujifilm GFX 100II,GF 45-100 & GF 20-35...
These are my impressions from the island, from the forests (Eukalyptus, Lorbeer, Kanarische Kiefer) and from the mountain Teide.
This concrete pillar was built off the East Coast of St Mary’s island in 1914 as a rangefinder for coastal defence guns at Tynemouth Priory.
Back in the day they wouldve only seen this is the day time but after some wicked waftery by top led fettler Mike Ridley the St.MArys rangefinder is now visible around the clock :D
Originally i had planned on going Aurora hunting but as that would be happening at around 8 ish and i work near Seaton Deleval i arranged to meet a friend of a friend to teach him how to use his new 550D before hand instead of driving home then all the way back. Also i knew the full moon would be rising behind the lighthouse, somthing which ive tried to witness before but always been hampered by clouds :[
After messing about and generally amazing Paul with orbs and just generally showing him how to take a photo lol we were joined by Mike. As we knew by now the Aurora dream was dead for another night so we ventured over the causeway and down to the rangefinder with said friend of a friend Paul scrambling about in his 'good clothes' haha.
Its amazing to see this side of the grounds at low tide which by then was only 0.2 meters and infact quite scary looking back towards the lighthouse at how high the range is between tides, approx 5.2 Meters! I love going out with Mick, hes so helpful and it was a real treat for PAul who litterally has never even took a photo, never mind seeing the dark art of light painting haha. After this he was grinning ear to ear as we headed back to the carpark.
Thanks again Mick for the knowledge in scrambling around down here in the dark and just for your enthusiasm and advice :)
Please check out Mike's Stream, its great :)
Also speaking of tidal ranges check out Michael Martens Tidal Range Photography project... He went round some of the spots in the UK and photographed them to show our huge tidal ranges.
In the Mediterranean, the tidal range (the difference in altitude between high and low tide) is usually measured in centimetres. Around Britain, it varies from one metre on parts of the North Sea coast to 15 metres in the Bristol Channel – the third greatest range in the world. The foreshore of Britain is therefore a vast debatable land, concealed and revealed in a twice-daily tidal magic trick.
ODC-My Lucky Charm
I just got a new lens (105mm 2.8 macro lens) and took a shot of my favorite, stand by lens, my 24-70mm that I carry with me all the time attached to my D800. I took this shot with my D7100 and the new 105mm lens. I love my 24-70 and consider it "my lucky charm" because I always get great shots with it.
Undergoing restoration at Duxford Museum.
History:
The Mi-24, which has the NATO reporting name 'Hind', was developed during the mid-1960s to provide a multi-role military helicopter-of formidable capability. It appears to be evolved from, the Mil Mi-8/Mi-14 family, but a combination of reduced size and increased power gives this aircraft improved manoeuvrability and performance. While of the same basic configuration as its predecessors, and with a dynamic system based on that of the Mi-8, the Mi-24 has a more slender fuselage suitable for the gunship role, but with sufficient capability to accommodate a crew of four and a maximum of eight armed troops. The tricycle landing gear has retractable main units and a semi-retractable nose unit. Short-span cantilever shoulder wings with considerable anhedral are a distinguishing feature, and each provides mountings for a variety of weapons. Entering service in 1973-74 and deployed initially in East Germany, the Mi-24 has developed during military exercises into variants for armed assault, for anti-armour use, and for use as a helicopter escort, well able to oppose enemy helicopters in air-to-air combat. About 1,500 'Hinds', in production since the early 1970s, are currently in service with CIS forces. The type saw much action in Afghanistan, used as the proving ground for many operational improvements to the 'Hind'. The type was also used in the Iraq/Iran war of the early 1980s. The Mi-24 has been widely exported and a number are in service on most continents, with examples delivered to, or operating in, Afghanistan, Algeria, Angola, Bulgaria, Chad, Cuba, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Hungary, India, Iraq, Libya, Mozambique, Nicaragua, North Korea, Peru, Poland, Sri Lanka, Syria, Vietnam and Yemen. Production continues at a low rate and by 1991 more than 2,300 had been built. FAI records set by the A-1O experimental variant of the 'Hind' gave some indication of the type's capabilities, as when on 2 September 1978 over a 15/25km course it achieved a speed of 368.4km/h.
