Had a walk up the river from Llanstumdwy and what a river it turns out to be. with all the new leaves out on the trees and the bluebells, I can think of few better rivers for photography.

Rain

 Did some shots last night of the river then some more after the rain of last night.

Prom on a Gray afternoon

 Down on the Prom on a cold damp afternoon.

First Sun of the New Year.

It's been a very grey and overcast start to the new year, but today the sun came out late in the day.

Went down to the riverside and did a few images.

Chicago

The cold has arrived. The air temperature has dropped by 30 deg Fahrenheit over 24 hours.

Good news is that the clear air has moved in and visibility is great. the queues for the Sears/Willis tower were 2:30 hours so it was given a miss. The boat tour around the rivers was a great trip with a very knowledgeable guide.

Rainbow over the Clyde.

Weather in Scotland is on the mixed side, and with spending time with my mother I'm just trying to get a few pictures when I can.

Today was a shopping trip, fuel for the car and then a drive to see the view from Greenock Esplanade.

There was a hint of autumn storms in the air.

iPhone 8

Well its a month since the last post and lots of things have gone on but not much photographically.

Big thing is I have a new phone. So took some pictures on the phone and with the Nikon and here are the results.

All images resized to 1500 pixel across.

iPhone tweaked on phone

Really very impressed. Quality is far better than a pro digital from the turn of the century. and the phone only cost £200 more than my first 160mb CF card!!!!

Upnor and the Medway

Well finally managed to shoot a few frames of new images. Down by the Medway and being out of the wind it was almost trying to be warm. The light was not great but with a bit of post processing, got a reasonable image.
