Skiing 2012 - Part 1

Got back from an excellent skiing trip last Sunday and after a busy week back at work I've only just now had the time to knock up a post about it.

Brilliant skiing conditions this year with lots of snow and fresh powder throughout the week although unseasonably cold for the French Alps. Skiing temperatures ranged from -10 to -30ºC!!

Anyway, I decided to take my trusty old PowerShot S2 as it is smaller and lighter than my dSRL so easier to take out on the slopes and does still produces some great photos. Well, after travelling over to France and missing a night of sleep we arrived at our chalet and the winter wonderland so I grabbed the camera and switched it on. I was presented with the "Please Change Batteries" message - I had only just charged them up before travelling out but tried another fresh set anyway and got the same message!! Tried a few things but could not get the camera to work so gave up and decided you use my iPhone 4 for the trip.

Didn't take too many pictures due to lack of proper camera but here are a few of the iPhone snaps. I will put some others on a future post.









I think that I have now managed to fix the problem that I had with the S2 thanks to This Post I never even knew the camera had a separate battery until I read that - Doh!!

Human Rights

It says......"HEALTH AND SAFETY IS AN INFRINGEMENT OF OUR HUMAN RIGHTS"

Surprised to see something like this on a wall in a lay by in the countryside so I took a quick snap.

Haven't seen too much stencil work around Salisbury since 2008 when I posted this

Camping - Back To Basics

I recently went camping with a group of friends down in Swanage. I took my trusty S2 but the rechargeable batteries which I juiced up before the trip appear to have given up the ghost :(

I therefore, had to rely on my iPhone 4! I haven't taken many camera phone pictures recently as I had an iPhone 3G for 2 years and the camera was really awful so got out the habit of taking quick snaps with the phone. The iPhone 4 is OK during the day and the HD video is pretty good but the camera does struggle in low light and the flash isn't anything to write home about.

Anyway, here is a quick compilation all my iPhone pictures and videos from the weekend.
