NEW BLOG ALERT

I have a new blog called Grandpaman's Camera.

I am using it to combine all my interests in one place. I also aim to write a post daily, so please follow me and encourage me!

Migration

Some pictures of migrating birds with my Granda's camera. I'm thinking of starting a new project next year, that will keep me motivated creatively now that i'm no longer at University. I'm finding my full time job fills up my time but not my mind.  I'm going to have a scout through flickr and find some 365 projects and tailor one that to suit my life. I want to do something where I have to post something regularly so that i get in the habit.

Photobox 24 in 24 challenge

Photobox have been running a 24 images in 24 hours challenge - would have loved to do it all but i was at work for most of it without any capabilities to upload to the site... just managed two this morning and due to silly internet speed only my first one got in!

"wake-up"

"wrapped up"

My Christmas wrapping that I made a start on last night, i decided to combine plain brown parcel paper with some fairisle paper I found in M&S, packing string and odds and ends.

Inspired by http://www.ohhellofriendblog.com/ i am going to write 10 things I am grateful for, just to take stock and consider. Hopefully next time I go to start moaning about something or other I can stop for a second and think first!

1. Love
2. Family
3. Friends
4. Hope
5. Grace
6. Creativity
7. Music
8. Reading
9. Chocolate
10. Coffee

Bit cheesy! hard to be concise and not cheesy!

Graveyard

 I recently acquired my Granda's old camera a Olympus OM2 which is awesome! I gave up on reading the instruction manual and took it out to test in a graveyard. I really like the colours and the light in the second one
