Caroline and I enjoyed an afternoon of musical entertainment at Dungeness in the company of The Transients.
Phil being the drummer.
I've dived into the archives to find something a bit different to break up the photostream somewhat.
This one does, however, follow the current theme of calamity...
A few years ago a group of us went to the Lake District in late November to get into training for our trip to Nepal the following Spring. Overnight whilst we were snug in our tent the weather broke and dumped a load of snow so we woke to a winter wonderland.
Properly armed and equipped, we climbed Bowfell with a bit of puffing and panting as we waded through the increasingly deep snow. Unfortunately when we got to the top, one of our merry band collapsed due to a previously undiagnosed heart condition. Being nearly 3,000 feet up, and a long way from the nearest road, there was nothing else for it but to call the intrepid mountain rescue.
...and along came this big yellow bird!
I can now understand how journalists work. Even though a friend was in a bad way, this shot was impossible to resist - it's not every day you find yourself underneath a Sea-King helicopter with your mate being dangled along with an RAF crewman on the winch line.
This was a good reminder that no matter how experienced and well equipped a group may be - we had literally 100's of years experience between us - there will always be situations that catch you out in the mountains.
I'm glad to say that it ended well, Phil got properly treated and he was fit and well enough to come to Nepal with us 5 months later.
ou la copine.. j'en sais rien.. mais j'ai pris cette photo le 22/07 lors de mon passage à Mulhouse en pensant à toutes les belles photos partagées par Hélio Phil (www.flickr.com/photos/132311475@N06/). Ceci étant dit, en toute modestie, on ne joue de toutes façons pas dans la même cour.
Cette photo a été prise au 300 mm, emmener un objectif de 150-600 mm aurait été beaucoup trop lourd en train. Mes convictions écolos m'interdisent de prendre l'avion ou la voiture pour me déplacer en longue distance. J'en prends mon parti au détriment d'une certaine proximité.
This is Phil. He is my photo-geek wingman.
He's a proper photographer with a website and everything . . . look:

Phil is on a mission for me tomorrow .. if he does well he will get some extra seed as a payment. Actually this is 2013.. not sure if this is Phil.. how do you tell pheasants apart??
This image was taken prior to the one I posted on Friday. I wanted to get a wide angle shot capturing not only the city skyline, but the intense colors of the sunset as well. I can't really tell you the last time I saw/photographed colors this vivid. It was such a blast experiencing and photographing the sunset firsthand.

Once again I am leaving most of this set with no comments.
Thanks for your visits, very busy at the moment but will get back soon
Poor old Phil is dying. He has retreated to a plant under the hedge and is hidden from view there. At first I thought he had been injured but his behaviour has been changing over the past 4 days. He has given me oodles of fun and photographs so I will miss him :-( On the up side he has become one of fattest pheasants around and has had an ideal life :-) (This was a little yoga stretching last year)
