Disappointing (365: 109) – Re-edited, so no longer straight out of camera. However, I think this is a much better picture.

Looking for… (365: 103) – heaven knows, but I’ve not found it. I’d settle for a couple of photo ideas. 2 pictures

DERA Eastney, Portsmouth – Silhouette.

What a Difference a Beer Makes – Product Placement (365: 96) – Today Thursdays and the 365 days project conspired to really get me down.

I Don’t like Thursdays – By Thursday I’m so tired I’m just useless for anything, so Thursday’s tend to be the worst day of my week.

Trapped (365:91) – No time today. Too busy working on the hall. (re-titled and re-edited). +1

Just Me (365: 88)

Safety in Numbers – Reprise – Not the picture I originally picked for this day’s 365. Nine years later and this is the one I prefer.

Wrapped in Thought.

Morning Shave.

The Red Dress (365: 32) – For my final foray into the Copycat mini-challenge, this was going to be ‘The Red Shorts’ but then I thought I’d go one better… One-minute read

Deliberate (365: 31) – Or if you prefer. ‘Red tie at night…’ Re-edit. I typically had one hour to grab and process a picture each day. So many of the shots and much of the processing were hurried. I think the original shot would have worked better if I’d decided to cool down the lighting. +1

High Contrast.

Pensive. It’s taking a fair bit of digging to discover why I have this picture. It turned out that I’d planned a 365 days picture — but it went wrong. This was my ‘safety shot.’

Self Portrait, January 22, 2007.

Old cuttings of my father – I’ve had these pictures for years I thought it’s about time I posted them. +1

They Built Their Own Yacht – Packed away in a box under the bed I found this newspaper cutting from 1960. It tells the story of how my father and a work colleague built their own yacht. I’ve also written about some of my early sailing experiences, in particular a couple of attempts at drowning myself. Five-minute read, 5 pictures
