Always, always, always, there are people in my way when I try to photograph this door! I don't blame them, it's so lovely - but I do feel that it's MY door, and they should wait til I have done my thing!! What a whinger!!!!

What usually happens when it snows in Stow, is what we call Snowciability, or Stowciability - perhaps there isn't enough snow this time, or perhaps we are all rather jaded from Lockdowns and the wretched virus....

Lockdown has taken enough of my time. In the train to Amsterdam and 30 minutes later I’m wandering through a deserted town. The part of the town were people not come when the sun is down. I will show you the places I found, one every day if possible.

'LOCKDOWN WALK' - MAY 2020 - NIKON D3300 & TAMRON 18-200 VC

Between Christmas and New Year, Tier 4 Level lockdown. I've taken to cycling the empty streets at night even if it is 0 degrees. One place is open on the right however.

Some of you may remember that my first lockdown project was to take my 40 year old guitar and renovate it. Project two was kind of the opposite. Build a new guitar but make it look like it has been played for forty years. Also I wanted to recycle where possible. The wood is from sepele sill boards from when the double glazing went in 20 yrs ago. The metal scratch plates are from a cooling plate from the old Raeburn cooker. In fact, although I am very happy with how it looks, and more importantly, sounds. I am already "pimping" it. My current project is teaching myself etching with acid. So the scratch plates may get cleaned up and etched. Wish me look-what could go wrong?

I'm taking this time to look at old photos.

"Candle in the Wind" signifies for me the reason why we light candles - for hope and a better future and for remembering those who have passed.

 

Many thanks for all views, fav's - and particularly comments - all are greatly appreciated!

 

Happy Macro Mondays to you all!

I was aiming to capture the largest full moon of the year rising over the local hillside windmill, but as usual my elevation calculations were way out and it passed too high, though that didn’t really matter due to the amount of cloud cover. As I had the camera all ready to go I took a couple of snaps of the moon with the clouds partly obscuring it, and was drawn to the semi-abstract nature of this one, the clouds resembling turbulent waves.

Lockdown lifting (Halleluhia ... close your beack and keep your mask on ...)

its not Kenya or the Amazonian Rain Forest, but...

Marco Mondays theme is "Label" so it was a perfect chance to show my "How Many Days I Have Been It Lockdown" click counter.

 

At the moment for me there is no week or weekends, just days which I number and this is "Day 84"

 

Taken with my Nikon with 50mm with minimal editing with Affinity.

 

Happy MM everyone :))

 

19/11 Lockdown evenings - playing around with a white box

Dahme an der Ostsee zu Ostern, sieht jetzt auch nicht anders aus.

Anyone here remember the old TV series Time Tunnel?

 

Back to more orthodox star trails. I'd have preferred a more interesting foreground than the top of our soon to flower Wisteria, but it was that or the white plastic eves of the neighbour’s roof.

 

Would have been nice to have longer star trails, but my battery depleted from 100% very quickly, and battery changing isn’t an option as it always results in a kink in the trails.

 

Cool meteor at 9 o’clock.
