I cook every night because I believe it's one of the best things I can do for our health. Last night, I noticed the red glow of the burner under the wok, and the steam rising from the vibrant green spinach.
...posting a few more photos from my trip to Bristol a few weeks ago!

Posting some scanned C41 prints for which I have been unable to trace the negatives. Lots of interesting stuff in this batch though as it covers the period where I was relocating from Birmingham to Essex.
September Mothing 02/09/18 to 08/09/18
My first posting of moth highlights from September, and there were a few to be very pleased with indeed, including two completely new species for my records and great additions to the garden list.
Highlights below of moths recorded in my back garden
Garden species count for 2018 now upto 493.
Here are the new for year species.
Catch Report - Back Garden - Stevenage - 1x 125w MV Robinson Trap
Scrobipalpa obsoletella - 02/09/18 - Dissected by Graeme Smith and initial thoughts were that it was Tuta absoluta, an extremely scarce moth in these parts... it turned out not to be this species, but an equally amazing record and a 2nd record for the County! [NEW!]
Ypsolopha sylvella - 02/09/18 - A fairly regular species here, but was missing last year and I got alpella instead (Which I didn't record this year) They seem to oddly turn up on alternate years.
Duponchelia fovealis - 03/09/18 - A day later and after the great Scrobipalpa record from the previous night, I really didn't expect another new moth for me and my garden again. This is an adventive species which seems to have colonised certain parts of the UK, originally from the Med and North Africa extending to the Middle-East and even the USA. [NEW!]
Dichrorampha acuminatana - 03/09/18 - This is a scarce moth from me, with just one other record from 2014, always a late flying species of Dichrorampha, usually seen mid-August to mid-September.
Ypsolopha vittella - 04/09/18 - This is a rare moth in Herts and maybe on the increase? As previous to this year my 2 garden records were only part of a handful of records in Hertfordshire. Not a very attractive moth, and care must be made to not confuse it with a worn sequella.
Satellite - 04/09/18 - A season first Satellite is always nice to see as they are particularly fresh after recently hatching, the spring ones are always (as should be expected, enduring our harsh winter) a little worn.
Sallow - 08/09/18 - A common moth for me and most people, I recorded a fair few during September, my very first for the year was a really striking example with the bigget dark dots on the forewings that I have ever seen. I also got the paler form f.flavescens a day later.
Lunar Underwing - 08/09/18 - Another common Macro moth and one that sports various hues and variations of ground colouring.
Posting this uncropped as this building was destroyed in the gas explosion and fire of March 26, 2015, that killed two people and brought down three buildings.

OK, I'm not typically known for posting or entertaining photos of kitty cats, but Alex here is a somewhat of an exception for me.
My wife and I adopted (aka "rescued") him about 7 weeks ago from the house a few doors down from us...the owner had 13 cats and they were all outdoor cats. Alex here must have been the runt of the litter because when my wife found him in the yard, he wasn't really doing too well: he was teeny-tiny and starving...like a rib cage with some fur on it. He could barely walk. His digestive system was almost completely blocked up, he couldn't open his eyes because they were crusted shut, he was covered in fleas, he had worms, and he was being eaten alive by ants. In short, he was probably just about to die.
So we decided we would get him fixed up and find him a good home. After many trips to the vet, several health issues, and a lot of daily medications (administered by my wife, bless her patience), Alex is now a very lively, very loving, very healthy, and very...fearless kitten, who is about double the size as he was when my wife found him.
And as it turns out, we were true to our word...we did find him a good home. Ours. :)
Yes, of course I am posting way far too many images of the same things. Conditions changed throughout the day and I liked difference scenes for different reasons. To me this is fun. And there's so little fun to be had in life.
Trying to learn how to generate in-camera jpgs that appeal to me.
Trying to avoid image processing on the Big Computer, if possible.
Trying to "get it right in-camera."
Other than downsizing, these images are, for better or worse, straight out of the camera.
What's missing? Vignetting. I'll go back and check the camera settings to make sure that correction is turned off. A proper image is lightly vignetted so as to draw the eye to the subject.
At the base I'm thrilled to have a full "mini-lab" in the form of a camera. I've come to appreciate just how much effort Sony has put into their in-camera jpg engine. The colors are fabulous to me.
I used the very simple in-camera color-grading recipe. It's Sony "Deep" Creative Style with Contrast set to -1. Easy peasy.

(Posting a slew of stuff to catch up for journaling, sorry) This is love-in-a-mist growing through the forget-me-nots which were ready to pull out. They just finish blooming and get mildew, so very satifying and easy to pull them. Mostly here I'm illustrating how it looks when "past time" to pull them.

We saw these two Maasai tribesmen sharing a bicycle while riding to "who knows where."
I noticed that Maasai men always travel with a stick, and the women do not. When I asked our guide why, he said the men use the stick to scare off snakes. "So how do the women scare off the snakes," I asked. He said, "they always travel with a man."
