Tan in 1964


There's a site called yearbookyourself.com that allows you to see what you'd look like in an American Year Book through the ages. Here's Tan in 1964 ;-)

Eiffel Tower


Quite a bit of post processing added to this one - but the pigeon really was there on the statue's head. Anyway - this was is dedicated to fans of Athena posters.

Sherborne Abbey


Sherborne Abbey - panoramic view - looking quite amazing and well worth a visit. The day Tan and I walked around the organist was playing the Bond theme for "Gold Finger" - sounds amazing with all stops out. More at www.sherborneabbey.com.

Drinking too much?


When the view from your kitchen window is this ... it's time to just by wine in screw top bottles.

Ex-Passion Wagon?

I thought these things were collector's items? Not much of a mobile home anyway. This one is falling apart just outside of Corton Denham near Sherbourne. If you're ever over that way I can recommend the Queen's Arms pub. Truly fantastic!

The more I photograph, the more I understand that lighting is everything. This picture, taken about six weeks ago on a Sunday afternoon, had the light coming in almost horizontally across my brother's front room.

Classic car in need of love

Doesn't a classic MG with Chrome bumpers deserve a little more love than being left beneath an inch of dirt underneath a bridge?

If that were mine....

Woburn (continued)

Here's a close-up of a little monkey sitting on my driver's side wing mirror. The wipers were on intermittent and so, a few seconds, move and scared him away.

It was a typical Autumn day in Britain as you can see. Everything soaked by a drizzle that didn't stop all day.

Woburn Safari Park

Nothing quite like having monkeys all over the car. Even though the weather was awful we still saw rhino, lions, zebras, monkeys (of course), giraffe, penguins, bison, chickens, boa, elephants, lemurs and a few deer-like creatures we didn't recognise.

Here's a picture taken from my bedroom of the trees behind my house. The image was then filtered, in the new pixelmator, using the "glow" filter.
