Long range capture of this Mallard drake...shot at 550mm. I believe I like this wing photograph the best of any I have taken.
More Mallard-in-flight shots will follow, as that was pretty much the limit of subjects available on the first day out in 2015.
Had a day out with Olly, Em and neil at skipwith common. and fairburn, I didn't take a single bird shot. but plenty of bugs and things..
I posted a couple in the comments otherwise I would never get round to posting them.
I got away from work early today and did a quick tour of the Clapham area. Today marks the contract change of routes 35 and 40, with the routes passing from Abellio to Go Ahead. Two types of bus have been bought for the routes, ADL E40H (MMC) and also these rather more unusual MCV EvoSeti devices, on the Volvo B5LH chassis. You can't knock something until you've tried it, so here is MHV5 doing the honours passing the Falcon at Clapham Junction. 30/4/16.
I had a day out today starting with a fruitless visit to Chichester, Marks didn’t have any of the items I was looking for. I then went on to Midhurst where I bought a skirt and top in a charity shop, the skirt is a designer one. This photo is taken in Midhurst and shows the ruin of Cowdray House which was partly destroyed by fire at the end of the 18th Century and dates from Tudor Times.

A class 116 on a Birmingham New Street to Kidderminster service passes Rood End Yard near Langley Green.25/2/1986. A youngster is evident and probably on a treat with his dad!! Happy days!!
This creation is the second in my series of bicycles. A 1890s Penny Farthing, leaning against a gas lit lamp post. The scene includes a lace parasol, wicker basket and phonograph. The Penny Farthing was one of the last of its models before "safety" bikes were integrated into society. However Penny Farthings were still used for racing until the 1930s.

This creation was made specifically for LEGO House in mind. When the team showed interest in exhibiting my LaFrance Streamliner and gave me the dimensions of the LEGO House Master Gallery space, I felt that the LaFrance wasn’t enough. The idea of building a Penny Farthing was in my mind for ages but loads of life things got in the way - I moved to England from Canada and decided to move my collection with me, which easily became overwhelming and disorganized. Once I had it all sorted out, a few months later I decided to move to Scotland so again my collection was all over the place! I finally moved in to my flat in Scotland and built non-stop for 2 weeks after work, and finally installed 'Day Out in Autumn' (along with 'Picnic in the City') on September 26 at LEGO House in Denmark.
This past year I’ve taken a long break from LEGO. Along with moving my life across the world and some personal life mishaps I was overwhelmed by the attention Picnic in the City got and felt the pressure of wanting to be sure my next creations were of the same high standard. This made me overthink a lot and overwhelm myself, so a break from the brick was needed. I'm excited to reveal to you guys my latest creation, and can say as well that my next one is shortly on its way. I truly do miss the community and building and have felt really disconnected this last year, hoping to get back into continuous building again.
Credit to Stefan Kubin for the dome technique that I used for the parasol - his colour choices were too perfect too that I used it for my parasol and need to credit him on being an inspiration.
Big hugs to Iain for doing an amazing job editing my awful photos taken in the most ghetto setup in my small flat. You are a star - TEAM BICYLE!

With the standard 37 leading I chose a record shot location.
A day out at the Bowl in Cheltenham. Unfortuneately, Debbie and her two do not like having photos taken, so I snatch at them, and they are no good! Thea and her Auntie Jaime
It was a family day out it was plain to see
They`d ice cream and chips then a dip in the sea
Lined up on the wall their tummy`s all tumbled
As inside ice cream and chips got ready to rumble
A fight to the death or until one wins out
The gases they created would make a vicar pout
When peace finally settled as they sat on their backside
Dad asked Who`s ready for candy floss with oysters on the side
