.. not. A cockup, TBH - thought I was out of frame when I fired the flash - one of the perils of working in the pitch black!
my sister and her family flew out to bali on sunday. my oldest niece, krysty, had things to do, so she flew out yesterday morning to join them. she had two hours to kill in sydney so mum said she'd go along to the airport and spend some time with her (and to collect the bananas my sister had bought for mum - $5kg up north compared to $13-14kg here in sydney). i'm on holidays so i decided to join them. big mistake!
mum was up at 4.30am to get the train/bus to my place. i got up at 5.30am to be ready to meet mum downstairs and get the 6.50am bus to the airport to be there at 7.30am (when krysty should have landed and been transferred to the international terminal).
krysty and my other niece's friend came down to sydney from coolangatta and because they did the immigration / check in thing there, when they transferred from the domestic flight to the international terminal in sydney, it was done internally - meaning they were already inside the customs vacuum so could not come back out to the real world... i did question this with my mum on monday night but she assured me that my sister had assured her it would all be ok.
musn't grumble - i like going to the airport and watching the people come and go :)
as suggested by shallwin :) If you are a hen, you probably will fall for him at first sight.
A male Red Junglefowl the ancestor of our KFC
Somehow, this cock is better looking than my cock ( I mean my chicken)
Hmmm...somehow cocks look better covered in feathers
This one is often seen in the company of a couple of nice looking hens.

sometimes a light leak can be disastrous - hopefully no one was walking along this jetty when it struck.
Livingston -v- Dundee May 2005.
Dundee drew and were relegated. Livi used an allegedly ineligible player.
Plenty of seats inside but some cockup meant Dundee travelling fans had to watch from outside the ground. Tam McManus. Caballero also played.

Classic Festiniog Gala - a Tribute to the late Alan Pegler
Interesting composition this! (otherwise known as a cockup - using portrait shutter release button I occidentally pressed it against the fence!)

This is how Yahoo hancrafts SERPs. Sorry about re-posting this mut I just fear that the original might suddenly disappear from Flickr. This leak is another cock-up from Yahoo.
This is my latest bit of tinkery. I made 4 pin hole cameras out of photographic paper middles (made of very thick cardboard and capped with two plastic ends) and this is test number 4. They were all shot onto Ilford RC Multigrade (gloss unfortunately).
The first three of the day were all shot on location somewhere else but having come home and developed them, they were all very overexposed making me think my hole was bigger than I first thought. So after my first three cockups I produced this one with a 10 second exposure from the roof of my house. I then took a photo of it on my digital camera and inverted it in Photoshop, nothing else done to it.

This smartly dressed guy is no ordinary cock, he's a male Red Jungle Fowl A super cock among the cocks. He wears a bright red comb and wattle, strong, confident, sturdy, cocky, resilient and undoubtedly the king of cocks.
His long sharp spur can easily inflict serious injuries to any other cock who is cock enough to mess around with his hen. He would stop at nothing until all challenger cocks are entirely annihilated. Sometimes even non-cock subjects deem threatening are targeted including human. There are reports of this fucker vigorously attack and destroy a M1 Abrams tank because of its menacing gun turret pointing straight at him. He even managed to bring down a fully armed F15 fighter jet flying at 15,000ft on its way to a sortie in Iraq because there is pic of a horny cock painted at the underside of its starboard wing. Fortunately the unwary pilot manage to bail out successfully. Only to find himself being attacked and shredded to pieces once landed on the ground where the cock is waiting anxiously.
Wish my cock (I mean chicken) is as gorgeous as this cock :)

an uncommon photo of a very common bird. Still retaining some of the colourful features of its wild relative, the original red jungle fowl.
It's also a rare sight to see one walking in the park these days.
He is like a piece of tasty walking Mc chicken. It won't be long before it ended up on somebody dinner plate.

Taken with a Vivitar "Ultra Wide and Slim" camera, this cheap simple camera has developed something of a cult following, it has a 22mm lens and a fixed shutter speed.
Shot on Maco Eagle developed in Rodinal 1:25 for 12 minutes.
I messed this up fine style, the lid came off the developong tank shortly after I poured the developer in! Although I replaced it immediately, severe fogging was inevitable, I've done what I can to rescue the negs in the scanning, but the results are pretty poor.
Basically my camera took too long to switch on and I was unprepared. DB Cargo Class 66 66080 passes through Tamworth with the 12:31 (5 late) Bescot Up Engineers Sdgs to Toton North Yard, which on this occasion included RHTT stock.
A colourful cock looking for mate/food
This guy is the ancestor of our KFC...he does'nt look that tasty at this stage.
Can he fly far? a burning question posed by one of my curious followers...the answer is...I'd never knew of any cock that is capable of sustained flight. The only cock that can do that in this planet is a cocket.... But in order to turn it into a practical proposition, there is a hose of other cocky engineering problems which he needs to overcome, such as what propulsion system to employ, what's the top cock speed he's able to attain, will his cock head drop off at lift-off ?, will the vortex created at his tail section disrupt the airflow under his cock wings in a manner which causes the entire cock to spin out of control even during a straight and level flight? what kind of cocky fuel to use for max power take-off ? would the cock split into 2 pieces if 2 of its critical engineering parameters were not correctly set in one of the elecocknic control module?? There are cases where the pitot tubes is blocked by dauber wasp's nest and lead to the malfunction of the airspeed indication system. This could potentially result in a fatal crash and kill the flying cock in a flash. Luckily this kind of incidence has became a thing of the past as technology has replaced the obsolete pitot tube with a thing called the cock mouth. This latest gadget will eliminate all the potentially fatal problems associated with the out-of-date mechanical design. The flying cock can just simply and conveniently open its mouth during flight to sample the air stream, a differential pressure is then generated between the tip of its mouth and the tip of its tongue and its cock brain will be able compute the actual airspeed accurately and keep the cock flying straight and level especially in autopilot mode. The wasp will have to find another place to build its nest as the cock usually keep his mouth shut after landing.
One critical aspect is during the final landing phase which most of the engineering goes into designing its on board computer. The hardware must be robust and rugged enough to withstand the extreme vibrations when the cock touch down. The computer must not overload and cock up due to the huge amount of data which it needs to process at this instance. The software must be structured to disregard the low priority jobs for the high priority ones to avoid receiving the scary 1202 and 1201 computer overload alarms just like the Apollo 11 did. There are millions of things need to be done right just one thing wrong would certainly result in a fatal cock crash killing the fragile cock instantly and even some other curious cocks and hens watching nearby That would be a horrific cocky disaster.
Worst of all, what if a nasty naughty malware/pc virus somehow escaped detection from the free anti-virus software website www.whyUsoCock.com suddenly come alive and screw-up the operating software and blow the entire cock out of existence during landing time. We may never know for sure..........so better not to know
Nevertheless, the cock must be kept alive at all cost.

I took this picture today at the Asda near work. This was right in the entrance, it's the first thing you see!
The oh-so-mountainous top (I can't bring myself to call it a summit) of Cockup, with Great Cockup the pimple on the ridge in the distance.

I've always been an advocate of natural lighting. I still am. But I've also been interested in other ways of lighting a shot. And there are so many ways of doing so.
One way I've tended to shy away from is flash. In the past I only had a fixed head flash, or built in flashes and got lousy results. Until discovering the freedom of digital, and before seeing the inspiring work of so many people on Flickr, I didn't know what to do with a flash and so just didn't use it. But recently the idea of getting a decent flashgun popped into my head. I still don't really know quite what to do with a flashgun but I'm sure it will open up all sorts of possibilities.

the day the planes hit the WTC, i'd spent nearly 7 uninterrupted hours on Donington Park. a cockup by the organisers meant less than a quarter of the normal attendees, and i was in and out of the pits all day. nearly half the attendees went home after lunch (!!) as they were too flogged to continue. tyres (2 days old) torn to pieces and footpegs ground down through the hero blob and into the peg on the left, and on the right... i ground off about a third of the length of the peg. think about that for a minute. sun and effort and sweat: back at the hotel nearby, the leathers could almost stand up by themselves. and this pose so neatly summarised my own state i had to take a photo.
awesome day.
so many morons get taiwan and thailand confused. apparently a few work in the royal mail (uk) too. the mailpiece was correctly labeled Taiwan...
Stitching large areas for hours on end can be like driving in the snow â hypnotic. When it comes to the red work in the tail, the direction of the stitches changes every other one. The reason for that is that the different directions reflect light differently, so it looks like there are two shades of red being used, rather than one. Stitching hypnosis can (and does) set in though, setting your hands on automatic while your mind has a wander. This often results in âwaking upâ only to find you have gone in the wrong directions for quite a while. To help prevent this sort of cockup, I mark the directions ahead of time. This usually works, but every now and then, the hypnosis gets me and I keep stitching in one direction anyway.
Taken from the shelter (NY 282 337) on Meal Fell. Today the shelter provided little protection against the bitter northerly wind and driving sleet. This was a rare glimpse of scenery through the thick cloud.
See where this picture was taken. [?]

My last two Lake District pictures didn't keep you guessing long. I think this might be a bit harder. The point for where I'm standing. A bonus point for naming one or more of the visible hills.
