Some rocks I fancied.

I’m concocting a cheesy plan with @sad_ivan to use our SGs in the upcoming #deathofpop show we’re doing with @krakatoa_band. They need a bit of stage time, even if they’re not what you think of as surf guitars. On the other hand, Link Wray used one for a long time so…

I’m still enjoying this custom jpeg profile I’ve made for my Fujifilm XE1. Still not missing shooting RAW.

Great times at the surprise party for my dear old mate @johnthevudio at Punjab restaurant. An eccentric fella with a heart of gold.

Trying out new jpeg settings on my little Fujifilm XE1. Never used a digital camera I liked this much. Straight out of camera jpegs can be tweaked to look so great.

Another day, another bird hide. Loads of flamingos, avocets, three-banded plovers, Kilitz’s plovers, whimbrels, greenshanks, African oystercatchers, even in the Southern winter.

@withoutaleaf has some time off after her last job. So we went down to the gloomy West Coast National Park. Despite the weather, time well spent. Fascinating scenes on the mudflats.

One more from the hockey. Just because I like the mist.

At the hockey stadium. Not many walk-ins at this early, misty time. But the players, coaches, and parents were already fully getting into it. It’s an international tournament, apparently.

Misty morning in Observatory - looking down from our balcony onto the neighbourhood cult compound. Took the opportunity to take my #pentaxmx out in the mist, down to the international hockey tournament happening just a hundred meters away.
