Well I’ve been a bit slack of late with updates IRT to build, with what NZ Election, AB’s back on the giggle box and a few cockups with the Ark.

 

It was going to plan with this, but main mast fell apart while I was painting it and trying to reassemble the mast was a pain in the ass.

Anyway it’s finally fixed with today I’ve put the decals on which went ok, until I review the pictures I took today and I realised the markings for port catapult are not straight. Oh well, how sad never mind.

 

Tomorrow will be some rigging and fitting of the hockey sticks.

  

Report from Nondon, noon, 21 Dec 2009: Eurostar cockup at St Pancreas Station: missed carriages of justice. Labour pain (New, old New, etc).

A few pictures since Saturday, we have been in lockdown since 1pm Sunday local time now 1pm Friday atm thanks to NSW’s/ Sydney cockup. So I have a funny feeling I might get this finished by Friday, providing I don’t have stuff ups with the rigging that I started late this afternoon.

i escaped from work early yesterday because of a rota cockup, rota? what rota? its verbal arrangements between people in the office at the different times. so spent a welcome hour wandering around Bangor Abbey.

That's what the hill's called! Shot from about halfway down Binsey, the most Northerly of the Lakeland fells.

This shot was originally a cockup as I didn't change the appropriate settings (shutter) when photographing the sky in the middle of the hot Taipei day. I liked what came out, wll, I saw that it could become something likeable. With some tiny tweaks from the RAW file, I proudly present: palmtree!

I spent fully half an hour contemplating the problem of a mirror lockup on my Olympus OM 10 before it occurred to me to check the battery.

 

Really, someone should take it away from me.

 

(Except not really)

The title refers to me, not the owl. Took the pic without re-setting the camera from the moon shots the other night! Hence virtually black image! Managed to salvage this via the wonders of CS3. Just goes to show that Eos 5D's are not idiot proof!!

Belfast Telegraph, advertising cockup.

Location of the famous standoff between the FBI and leader of the Branch Davidians David Koresh whom set fire to his church in which himself and all of his followers lives came to a horrible ending. One of the biggest cockups in US law enforcement,

I found I'd taken the UV filter off my lens with the hood. When I put it back on, I guess I trapped some warm air, which condensed all over the filter. Took me a minute to spot what had happened.

The name was a cockup by Linnaeus - this lovely plant comes not from Peru but the western Mediterranean.

Having bought this out of a machine in Sainsbury's (the ones they put on the way out to trap unsuspecting teenagers), Kaz realised something was wrong.

This photo is terrible. It was not taken for any artistic or talent or to win any competitions. It's really not that good.

 

Why is it photo of the week? Because on a very crap day this brought a big smile to my face and helped me forget about things for a few brief minutes.

 

That's why.

The first picture I took on Take Your Box Camera to Work Day, and it was already getting dusky. I was delayed getting out of work by a series of cockups, so lost all but the very last light on the Day; I made up for it by going back out a bit earlier the next day.

 

Anyhow, this one is just looking toward the end of town where they've put up the Ferris wheel. It's Efke R100 (I still have a handful of rolls left) in my Kodak Hawkeye Ace Deluxe, and developed in HC110 diluted 1/32 for 8.5 minutes; sort of a two-stop push. still had to mess about in the scanning to get much visible here. I'm not bothering to upload any more form the end of this roll.

 

It's the first time I've used this camera - it's a very simple card-bodied box, with one shutter speed (not even a 'B' setting), and a pull-out wire-frame finder at the front. It's the 'Deluxe' model because it has lugs for a string strap; I think you're expected to provide the actual string yourself; mine came in its original box, but there was no strap with it.
