Slightly dark camera phone photos again.

As you can see from my post the blog thread I went to a show that included audience participation yesterday. One part of this was to make fuzzy felt pictures for various words. (images being easier for a dyslexic person to process) These are the images from yesterday (that would be unique to yesterday's show)





The word top-left in the first is "Heart" the word top-left in the second is "Dark".

Two of the pictures (it was a sadly small audience for a great show) were mine. Any guesses?

The Scar-face and the kisses?

Half right. The kisses is one of mine.

The scarface kept having an unfortunate problem. The show is performed in schools and therefore the boards all have a small piece of velcro on the back to hang them up. The face of Scarface kept sticking to this (they were stacked up prior to display) making it a very surreal presentation.

A few more camera phone images. It works better where there is a decent amount of light.

A coffee I had in Brighton the day of the show. (Just liked the pattern on top)



The oddity of weather. As you can see from the foreground, I'm stood in bright sunlight. The hill in the background is half a mile away at most. Sudden fogs like this are not unusual next to the sea.



How confident are you about your parking ability? The road above where I took this picture does get some spectacular views (I'd love a house there) but is parking like this worth it?



If I ever get round to writing an autobiography I think I now have a title. The utensil on the left was provided with the food in the bowl this morning. Do rush out and buy a copy of "Eating Porridge with a Fork" when (if) it comes out.

Love it!

The one with the fog is a really cool pic. I bet one has some pretty nice photo opportunities quite often there. Fog does that...

I hadn't emptied out the camera since last year (really, there were pics there from before christmas), so while Isort things out and take my time to upload and post the best pics here, enjoy these pictures from you'll-see-when, as 'tis (not) that season.

And space fight!

Pew pew pew!...


(Edit): Also, let's set a date for when we'll do our global AGers picture-at-the-exact-same-moment! Also, decide on how we'll do it (will we go somewhere nice, just take wherever we want, do it at the exact same moment or if you'd rather, at the same time of the day etc.)

Also (sorry to spam) here's some animals, first of all a tiny picture of a squirrel (it's originally bigger, but I only cropped it in PB after it was already uploaded and automatically resized ):


And some baby owls (as taken by my father):


And there's more where those came from, in case you're interested

I like the space fight picture!

And about the exact same moment: is that the same moment in the day of the photographers (so at different times CET for different places on the planet) or is it the exact same moment in the day of the earth (so at the same time CET for different places on the planet)?

Awww Up, love those cute little fluffy animal pictures
Yes, that means I'm interested in more of those pictures

About the same moment thing: I think both are interesting, but that the exact same CET time could give some problems with it being night and all for some of us I think that one would be more fun though, as it would mean all around the world people taking a picture at the same time, and seeing how time is something relative or something like that.
Maybe we should just try both and see what happens.

Very impressive bulldog. If you'd like me to resize them to a more easily viewed level then let me know.

Here's a street scene where I live. Nothing too exciting about it. Tall terraced houses. A railway arch.



Here's another. Cuboid block of flats, etc



There are various ways of getting between these two points. The most direct, however, is by turning right from each of those pictures and going up a narrow pathway or down a narrow set of steps respectively. Do so and these mundane street scenes will give way to this.







An oasis of parkland hidden away. All towns and cities should have places like this.

Nice MG there on the first picture Step. And I agree with you on the parks. Enschede has lots of parks and they are heavily used.

Which one is the MG?

I am reminded I didn't say which of the other fuzzy felt pictures was mine. Car chase was mine as well as kisses. My wife said it looked violent. The person chasing has an umbrella, not an axe. Honest!!

Beautiful work Bullsie! I never knew you could do stuff like that on a sewing machine.

Aww Step! Now I want to go to Hastings! The park is beautiful and I must say British terrace houses look amazing.
