I was bored installing some display drivers for Windows and had a rummage in my draw to see if there was anything interesting in there. I found this old compass and decided to take a picture to try out my new Tamron 70-300mm lens.

People said to me when I was considering buying this lens, "Why put such a cheap lens on your camera?" My intention was to get a cheap lens for occasional shooting. But I really like this! I'm not sure a lens costing £600 more would have given a result 6x better, it might have. This is good enough for me though :)

I made this for Cynthia. I wish the compass really worked. :/

In case you forget which way is North, the designers of Elmina Castle built a handy compass outside to help you aim the guns. The only problem is that the enemy can blow up the compass.

It was great to see the performers on a bigger stage.

At 208 degrees, the shot was taken in a S-SW direction. Helps to orient the map in GoogleEarth when geotagging the photo.

Home of my favorite bar in Surrey, Amberjacks. It's a noisy trailer trash bar of no merit, but it's comfortable, somehow. You can order from the main restaurant menu if you ask nicely, so the food is better than at most bars.

EDIT: I'm so glad I took this shot, as a few months later, the Compass Point and Amberjacks are being torn down to make way for some hideous new building near King George Station.

I don't think I've seen a Metrorider since Ipswich got rid of theirs so it was nice to see one again.
