A 1977 Chevrolet Corvette (no longer with the "Stingray" surname as of that model year), as seen in my neighborhood. T-tops off... the only way to roll in mid-summer.

We returned to the lockers after our morning dives, which would have been our last shore dives outside of the house reef. We were intending on doing a couple more dives at Calabas, but we weren't expecting to see anymore different creatures.
We've heard about a resident octopus at the dock, but we've never seen it before. When we walked to our lockers, 2 divers were returning with stories about the octopus being in a pipe near the dock. So Luis and I jumped right back in.
Unfortunately, the octopus was wedged inside a pipe, behind a couple of dead corals surrounded by fish parts and broken shells. It looks like it has been bothered by many divers and is not coming out at least for now. I'm ashamed to admit that I think I woke it up with the flash on my camera. Oops!

I have woken again - it's ten to six, I'm not likely to sleep again so I'm lying in bed (that's my head on the pillow) listening to After Henry which I've downloaded from BBC iPlayer.
2-sided Inspiration Card made for The Print Shop gelli printing group.
I used some pink and gold microbeads for a bit of added dimension.

Many fishermen sleep on the untied catamarans, he was one to be first awake. They stay their waiting to give a hand when their mates come back from sea.

The magic of the sleepers. After leaving lovely London Euston you awake at the likes of Dalwhinnie with ex WSMR/Chiltern silver machine 67015 up front in the snow early on February 29th 2016.
I only want to awake
If I can have you by my side forever
I miss you already
Our deep conversations
Of our friends and foes
Riding horses through the fields
Walking through the penetrating fog
Godiva is a 33 feet high puppet which is travelling from Coventry to London as part of the Cultural Olympiad. When she arrived in Northampton she was presented with a bespoke pair of riding boots made by a local manufacturer - size 72! Unfortunately she was wearing a long skirt, which meant that we could only see a small part of them.
After receiving the boots on the Market Square she made her way around the town centre preceded by a motley crew made up of the Mayor,and some Councillors, corset wearing Morris Dancers, Belly Dancers, the 'Ministry of Cycles', and 'Wicker Maidens' - who I assume were the yong ladies bearing flowers.

VWS1502 © Copyright VW Selburn 2011: As a young girl I camped with my brothers on the banks of the River Tyne. It was safe and exciting to be out all night. We didn't sleep of course; the fog horns kept us awake half the night. It was impossible to sleep, and I didn't want to miss a minute of whatever was out there. My mother was worried about us early one morning and sent my father on his bicycle to check up on us. My brother heard him coming toward the tent and almost clobbered him with an axe because he thought someone was coming to harm us. It worked out well though because in the morning we had our father there to cook us a breakfast of bacon and eggs and fresh baked rolls and butter from the local baker. It was ok to have campfires by the river at that time. A memorable night indeed.
There are a few landmarks in this damp and grey photo. They include: Lord Collingwood's Monument, a huge statue on a column and plinth which, if you wanted to walk around the top of it you would mount the huge stone stairway to it. Four cannon used to be mounted on smaller plinths bordering the stairway but two have been removed. The Old Coastguard buildings still stand watching over the river mouth. In the background, Knott's flats, a monolith of a building housing families. The green, above the buttresses at the bottom of the cliff face, hides below it a once accessible WWII arms battery. As a child I used to go down into the pitch black walkways even though we were not supposed to. Like my brothers, I used to hide in the dark passageway, waiting for the silhouettes of new explorers, and I'd jump out to frighten them. (Under peer pressure I could be a horrible little beast too!) It was a great shame that the local authority covered the area with the grass and a car park. This photo was taken from the Tynemouth North Pier on Shootaboot 12 2010.
