I got back from a work trip to Paris yesterday after 24 hours, through 3 countries on 8 trains, 3 buses, 2 ferries and 1 Taxi.
But i did get to see the white cliffs of Dover! This was taken on a Sea France ferry, surrounded by many screaming children.
On the way to Calais, we feared that all the ferries were booked up for days but luckily we had no problem getting one when we arrived.
Very happy to be home, so many people still stranded in travel chaos across Europe. Sparing a thought for them today.
If you're familiar with my photography, you'll know I really don't do much night photography. So for something a little different, I went on a mission to have fun and enjoy the darkness" with KmountMan last night. We had a fun 3 hours driving around town and shooting different things. I came home with some rather neat photos. Atleast we didn't have to worry about harsh light...LOL :o)

This is my third day of shooting snow sports since the late 90's (but that was with film). This time I got to take Sketchy's D100 and my Sigma 28-70mm 1:2.8-4D. It's a little tricky, but I managed to employ the circular polarizer as well (some of the shots came out better than others).
Coming Soon, a brand new set of photostories. Coming to a Flikr near you!

Okay in all seriousness I've decided that I'm gonna start posting photostories with my Monster High gang (note that not all of my gang are in this photo, these are just the MAIN main characters!) I'm looking at starting after Christmas, so keep your eye's peeled for teasers!

I thought I would see how I managed getting about on my own with my one hand.. I surprised myself. It was great walking around the city again. There was a lot to see because of the RISE festival.
December 22, 2013, Christchurch CBD New Zealand.
Street artists armed with spray cans and paint rollers are coming to the rescue of Christchurch's struggling suburbs and city centre. Dozens of large artworks have been created on walls across the city this month with many more going up this week.
The RISE street-art festival has commissioned a dozen large street-art paintings in the city centre, while the From the Ground Up project has organised about 16 large artworks in the city centre and Sydenham. Christchurch business owners and city leaders believe street art will help regenerate areas hit hard by the earthquakes and draw tourists to the city.
Canterbury Employers' Chamber of Commerce chief executive Peter Townsend said street art adds ''a whole new dimension'' to what the city offered.
"Putting street art in significant places in our city has the potential to make Christchurch unique,'' he said.
''It can create a real point of difference for a city and transform otherwise ugly buildings into an asset for the city.''
RISE festival director George Shaw said vibrant street art changed the feel of a city.
''If you paint amazing art on blank walls it brightens everything up and makes the place feel relevant and alive.
''That is desperately needed in cities across the world and especially in Christchurch.''
From the Ground Up organiser Jacob Ryan said about 20 New Zealand artists had created artwork in the city for the project.
''We wanted to get the city going again and make Christdhchurch a more interesting place. The aim was to brighten up the city. It has a real impact on this scale. Christchurch is the perfect canvas.''
Sydenham Quarter chairman Anthony Barker said street art had brightened his quake-hit suburb and attracted shoppers.
The business association helped get permission for street artists to use walls in Sydenham for the From the Ground Up festival.
The RISE festival also includes a major street-art exhibition at the Canterbury Museum opening tomorrow. The exhibition will feature one of the largest private collections of Banksy artworks in the world, work by international and local street artists, and new work by Australian artist Ian Strange.

After coming down from the tree, the bear cam through these branches and into the clearing where I was standing. A nervous and exciting moment.
Construction worker: "Damnit, when the hell is this train gonna get here! Wait, I think I can hear it...."
" 'Cuse Me! Coming through!"
"Holy.....what the hell? THE Iron Man, in a subway tunnel!?"
"Jarvis! How far until we track down the quinjet!?"
" Continue along the subway tunnel sir, take a right at the next junction, then follow that track until you reach a subway stop, the thief is there."
"Got it, time to catch this bitch!"

I take this road everyday to office and back. I always thought of making a light trail shot here. This is not a perfect place – there is no road divider and in the evening traffic is heavy only at one side (people coming home). But thick and tall vegetation on both sides created a nice “V” (or leading line, the way u see it). I just had to wait for a evening with interesting sky.
