An Immature Common Gallinule, also known as a Common Moorhen tests the waters before entering the pond.
change of tack , just bought a MF VIVITAR series1 70-210 mm lens ,they were supposedly among the best lenses back in the day .. it arrived next day delivery not bad for a £24 purchase and I set it up on my EM1X with focus peaking etc.TBH im extremely pleased with the results so far heres a sample and its definetly a keeper
This is just a shot to test to see if I can upload from my phone from the iCloud as I can't log in to my yahoo and Flickr from my laptop dew to security issues raised from yahoo my old phone number was used as a security buffer no need to comment on this
Once again the lens (Nikkor 18-105) is not mine, but it belongs to Max... but, you know, I had to make a couple of shots before being sure to buy it! :D
tested out painting some kneepads
and the boots are horrid I know
Please don't just fav and leave, comments are much more appreciated
earnest but tense desire, a keen anxiety to succeed.
(this is not the first time I post pictures of these chairs, I just thought it was appropriate for what is going on in my life, right now)
Testing what may be my new camera once my back is sufficiently recovered to carry a backpack again, hopefully in the new year. As you would expect, I’ve carried out a rigorous, highly scientific test:
1. Can I carry it? Yes, all the way to the garden, no problem at all.
2. Does it fit in my pack? Probably. It’s around here somewhere.
3. Will it focus close enough to photograph a small pile of frosty leaves? Yes.
4. Are said leaves sharp? I should say so.
5. Will it photograph other stuff? I don’t see why not.
6. Have I comprehensively compared it to other cameras? Not really. I like this one.
7. Was it an impulse Black Friday buy? Maybe. I don’t see what that’s got to do with it.
8. Have you told the wife? No need. She can’t tell it apart from the old one.
9. So that’s that then? Yep. Proper job.

Featured today is a kitchen timer with words from a timed typing test in the background. "Get ready for a ten-minute timed writing." Does anyone remember those words?

Just recently I’ve seen quite a few of my contacts heading over to 500px (for those of you that are unfamiliar with it, it’s a new photo social networking site, but unlike flickr you can vote for images to reach the front page). Now I know there are plenty of other photography social networks around, ephotozine, photoradar, x1, even facebook, but what I find interesting about the rise of this new one is not the site in particular, but the my contacts behaviour in approaching this new site. Many are posting what they themselves consider their best most successful work, filtering their new uploads to present them in the very best light. Now, there is nothing wrong with this at all, in fact it’s a good way to gauge a new community and gain valuable feedback. But for most new members dipping their tow into the water, their new community is largely the same faces with different avatars. There is nothing new and it’s like a different pub with the same friends, it feels fresh, but people still behave the same.
Any social network is based on its members and the rewards come from the social interaction. Personally I find maintaining several different social networks are very difficult. Investing limited time in different places weakens the experience and even changes your brain. ironically I was a listening to a neural scientist yesterday on Radio 4 that said , (and I paraphrase), our new fast and fleeting world of quick face book texting, email and the quantity of distractions is damaging our neural pathways. He said that people generally find it difficult to concentrate in the depth due to distractions and the quality of concentration is improved with no distractions from email, text, ect!
Anyway I digress, but the point I want to make is that anything that you really engage in, in depth offers bigger physiological rewards; it pushes you further and enriches your life.
Oh, just for an experiment I posted a new shot to this new site first to see how I felt about it. I personally will keep only one social network, but I will stay with the one that offers the deepest and best engagement with the people that I respect and find inspiration in their work. Where that will be in the future time will tell.

Marco Montanari mi coglie intento a studiare il testo di "tempo reale" prima di entrare in cabina voci per registrare il brano dell'album matumago x-press...
grazie Sfrevol!!
ed ecco il testo dell'inciso e la prima strofa:
Crea la realtà , il tempo,
radici nelle forme s’offre alla continuitÃ
per realizzarla, ci lasha orme,
ke okkio umano non ricordi se non cerkerà ,
dorme nelle nebbie dell’etÃ
ormeggia in porti grigi salpa con la creatività enorme
fiera della vanitÃ
deformerà l’istinto libero e la carne degli dei
coi suoi sei 6 sei sacrifikerà !
Se vai nell’emporio del tempo e lo spazio,
cerki l’ampolla con dentro il composto d’equinozio e solstizio
col sole ke si ferma, qui dalla terra ferma a lassù sulla stella,
lenta come creshita di erba su colli pregiati
per i vitigni ke vi si sviluppa...
avvisi di paniko sholgo in una densa skiuma ke tutto lo stress avviluppa
faccio shendere strippati per ritmi frenetici dalla luna colla capa per mezzo di shuttle shaluppa,
seghe e pugnette e BACILARE(1) poco poco
ti rendi conto quanto ce ne resta poco, dopo
il tempo passa sempre troppo poco svelto se t’imparanoi
passa a lampo se lo godi ed altro ne vuoi,
impara come noi altri a fregarli
dall’avamposto del sogno rompo incantesimi e trattati di Darwing
We went through some things I'd like to try ...
and then she said enough!
We took a much needed time out from the preparations to sit in the garden and have a Miller Lite together.
