186/366 The River Stort Navigation

Since I bought my new Nikon D800 the weather has been awful…to be fair, no surprise for this year. So when the sun was making a rare appearance this lunchtime I made a quick dash out with my other new purchase…the Nikon 14 – 24mm f2.8 lens.This is a wide

Bishop’s Stortford Camera Club Summer Program tonight….which meant I showed off the new D800 and lenses to anyone who cared to listen 😉 We met at Hatfield Forest in light showers and walked the 800 metres to the main lake to be greeted with a downpour. Fortunately, being in a

It’s been an exciting day at Seton Towers today with the arrival this morning of my new Nikon D800. I immediately dug out the battery and charger and set it charging so I could use it at lunchtime. With the battery charged I just needed a subject – drizzle outside

183/366 The Thames at Richmond

I’m at the half way point of my 366 journey today and I, rather fortunately, had the London Photowalk to help get a nice picture for the occasion. We visited Richmond Park today and I took this picture from Richmond Hill overlooking the River Thames.

Tonight’s photo seemed to be doomed from the start! The evening started well with the inaugural meeting of the Dunmow Photography Club at Orange Street Photography. A decent turnout saw a number of Dunmow local photographers meeting for the first time and this promises to be a good resource for

180/366 Phew, what a scorcher…

It’s been extremely hot and humid here in Dunmow today, but at least the sun came out and we got away from the unremitting grey skies we’ve had for the last few days. So, come the evening and what better than to take a stroll along the River Chelmer in

179/366 Tuneful Tracks

I really struggled for a subject tonight. I tried washing up bubbles and then knitting before I decided on the subject. I used 3 different lenses to try and get what I wanted but that didn’t work either. In the end I fell back on my newly cleaned and restrung

178/366 Strolling down the River Stort

Tuesday night means Bishops Stortford Camera Club night and the excellent summer program continued today. We congregated on the edge of the town centre and took a walk along the River Stort. It was overcast and muggy, but at least it was dry, so no sunsets tonight. Instead here’s a

177/366 Look Out

It was a lovely sunny evening today so I popped out into the back garden with my macro lens to see what I could find. This fella was definitely on the look out, for what, I don’t know, beut he was very alert…excepting, of course, he didn’t seem to notice
