2010 Skiing Intermission

Heading to La Plagne in French Alps later today for a skiing holiday so there will be no blog updates for a week or so.

We've had a fair bit of snow here in England over the past month or so but it will be make a nice change to go and ski in it rather than trying to battle to work through it!

Here is a shot of me from last years ski trip.

State of the Union

Another photo from my archives. Taken using the macro light

Must Have Gadget

I reloaded my main computer last week and am now finally getting around to creating a better filing system for my 10,000+ photos.

As with all tidying, you come across things which were long forgotten and for me these are random photos of random items!

This is a macro shot of a Bang & Olufsen Beocom 2 taken on 16 December 2005 with my trusty Canon Powershot S2. Over 4 years later and you still see these phones on TV shows all the time so it must be a bit of a degign icon.

Watch this space for other old photos from my collection.

Dark Religion

Came across a couple of night shots of Salisbury Cathedral on my computer.

They were taken around the same time as the Comic Relief Cathedral shots.

More Beautiful You

Back a month or so ago, I blogged about some friends that were starting up a website. I had helped them out with some seasonal photos.

Now that the site has been up for a while, I thought I would post a few more of the pictures from the photo shoot.

Why not have a look at their site at www.beautyu.co.uk and take a look.

It's Snow Time

Well, it's that time of year again when England gets some snow and the whole country grinds to a standstill!

Really want to get out in the snow with my camera and take some winter shots but unfortunately I am one of the ones who can actually make it in to work so haven't (so far) had the chance.

Just in case I don't get the chance, here is my view of the virgin snow on Tuesday morning just before driving in to work. Not a great image as it was taken on the iPhone's rubbish camera but you get the picture!

Another Year Gone

So that's it then...the festive period is over. It's official now in my house as the tree and decorations came down yesterday and it's back to work tomorrow!!

Hope that you all had a good New Year and now we can look forward to what 2010 has to offer.

Here is my naked tree shortly before being dragged outside then chopped, drawn and quartered!
