Louby

Stunning JdB I am loving the panaramic ones, and the cooled lava lake, top notch stuff, thanks for sharing

Oooo I was gonna be a Graphic designer too!! then I found that I liked money more than the thought of going to college what a mistake that was!

Blimey I didn't realise how long it has been since my last blog ..... bad bad Loubykins!Well the woe is me bit first, had a crap summer the end.Now for the good stuff :DFor those who don't know Frog did very well in her exams, one is a very proud mum! and after alot of faffing about finally choose her college course, Graphics, IT, Photography and Classic Civiliations, the later chosen as she had to choose 4 and any of the other course classed as 2 course or an art subject, anyhoo she has to drop one come this time next year and although she has some interest in classic civiliations it was the subject she would drop come next year. Trouble is she loves it... she loves all the subjects some me thinks it's going to be a difficult choice for her next year But she is loving college and doing well so far, she loves the relaxed atmosphere and more importantly (in her eyes) there are loads and loads of fit guys (god help them, one and all) :lol:Rat is in his last year at school, and still not sure what he wants to do when/if he goes to college, doing well enough, although could put a bit more effort into school, but he is too busy playing cricket As for me, I am looking into doing volunteer work for a local old peoples home, I had planned to look into it more before the summer but things happened and didn't get done. It is something I used to do when I was at school and loved it. Just not sure my back will cope with it, will have to see.I have also lost two and half stone... not sure where, if anyone finds it, you can keep it, I don't want it back :lol:Now my foot is healed I can get out with Ozzy, which is doing me wonders, and not just over the mototway bank anymore, Joe drives me over to the lakes or up to Reigate Priory or Reigate Hill, he sits in the car having a coffee reading boring fishing mags and Ozzy and I go marching off at a rate of knotts, I love it! and so does Oz.Well that's enough to bore you for now

It's not until they zoom out that you see how amazing that is! thanks for sharing Ricep

very calm and bright sunny day, light breeze. current temp 19c.

Yet another dry warm day here. Has been very dry month here, only one day of rain in Sept. My lawn is pretty much brown and cracked. And looks like at least a week more of it before any sign of change.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071002110248AAJytyV, well it seems to work DN, gotta be worth a try if you don't like the beasties Personally I love them and glad there are loads about, better chance of getting a decent picture of one. Although not good if you live in a thatched roofed house, remember staying in one in Norfolk, and the amount of spiders was just

I also very much like the one before the plane too! nice capture.

Wonderful pictures WM! especially like the second to last one!

Have merged these two for you lads as I was asked soo nicely

Nooooo , don't say that Cookie!! I'll send you a link of a programme that will help you upload your pics and reduce the size easily

:lol: awww, well if you like you can always ask me and I will do it for you hun

Ooo I see you went up the notorious Steep Hill, I have heard about that many a time, you got some good shots there Jake!

You get some great views round your way don't you! I love watching ships come in when I am down at the Coast Thanks for sharing Cookie, nice to see you are still out with your camera. Any chance you can reduce them down next time you post to 1200 x 800 ish, they will load quicker

Yet another glorious start to the day, albeit chilly with temps currently at 6c, very still with the tiniest of breezes and not a cloud in the sky.

Just had a quick scoot through and came across 'Lady orchid flower detail, Oxfordshire, 2009' Love it! simpley love it. I have done a bit of floral macro which as you said kills the back, so I tend to use the live view on the canon or buy some flowers and take the pics at the table. If you don't mind will have a look through all your work

Would be interested to see your Macro work! I think my next purchase will be a macro slide, will stop all the back and forth of the camera or tripod business, also would love alittle light box.

Cookie will post his pics as soon as he has sorted them

I forgot to say, I did capture a picture of the lesser spotted camera frog, but don't think I should post the picture without her permission, but needless to say the lesser spotted camera frog is a very very rare breed, one of a kind, and can only be found at the BW centre on a sunday every now and then

What a difference a day makes eh? Glorious sunshine, temp currently 14c, just a whisper of a breeze

Dull boring windless dry, although did get a bit muggy around dinner time. Top temp was 19c

Frog and I decided to take a visit here.... http://www.britishwildlifecentre.co.uk/homeframeset.htm If you are ever down this way pop in there, it's not a big place but great all the same great little place and a great chance to get some pics that you wouldn't normally get chance to take.

They are gives you a great effect!

Well I shall make sure I don't break my foot next year! I might be brave enough to come and annoy you all

The footage on tv this morning was awesome, must have been really scarey to wake up to though. Would have given Joe's right testical to have been there with my camera.
