Barcelona. Time delayed Blogging.

Today will be Day One of a time delayed blog from a trip to Barcelona. We have just got back and rather than spend time online while away I decided to Blog after the event.


Day One


The first day was travelling. The trip was very easy all connections were on time transits were easy and the weather good. We arrived in Barcelona on Saturday afternoon and after booking into the hotel we went out for a walk and then to see the magic fountains. This gave us a feel for the underground with a five stop trip.


The fountains only played on Friday and Saturday nights so this was our only chance to see them.


It was well worth the trip we stayed and saw two displays. After it was back to the hotel, food and bed.

Museum of Kent Life

Just to get out of the house today we had a visit to The museum of kent life at Aylesford. Just before the school holiday so it was very quiet. I had set my kit up with what I was going to be shooting with on a forthcoming trip. After a couple of hours I realised that I had over packed and rethink of kit was needed.


More weight than I would be happy carrying for 4 days. 


Anyway I got some images I was pleased with considering I had not been out shooting for weeks and my 'eye' was not in.

iPhone again

Gravesend

I have not been shooting much over the past few weeks, but today the sun was out and I had to do a visit to the bank. I did a few images on the iphone.

London

Had to do a trip to London today not for photography, but did some 'phone' images.

Outdoor Photography

I had another image chosen for the 'Woodland Detail' competition in the January issue of Outdoor Photography. The image was taken at Bedgebury Pinetum in October 2009.

Christmas in North Wales part 2

The snow at Christmas was outstanding this year.

Christmas in North Wales

The first of a couple of posts of images taken in North Wales. 


This was the view I awoke to on Christmas morning.

Snow!

Its been some time since I had the time to make some images.

We are now at the end of the second day of one of the worst snow storms for years. Yesterday I did not have to travel, but today I did my commute by train for the first time ever. It may seem slightly perverse in light of the weather conditions, but as I was only travelling a couple of stops I reckoned I would be OK. As things worked out it was a very easy trip. and with a brisk walk at either end I arrived feeling rather 'humid' in all my weather gear.

London

There have not been many chances to get out with a camera over the past few weeks, but this weekend I had a trip up to London. Lunch at Borough Market, a wander along the thames to the London Eye via the Tate Modern.

Evening Light

A trip down to the prom for the evening light.
