Another photography thread ^^
Hopefully this one (and me) is here to stay now :-)
Lily after a walk sat in the fallen in the leaves
The wind blew her fur so she needed brushing later lol :)
What a lovely photo! I envy you having a dog. I’d love one but I just couldn’t deal with all the ‘picking up the poo’ side of having a dog. Love the bandana/collar too!
Today up in the ‘smoke’.
.......and yet, as a practically minded autist (not as a mobster...honest) .... my mind can conceive of a variety of "mechanical means" (replete with leak proofing ideas) that could readily envisage more like 6no, individuals.
There was a period of my life during which I was deeply (and most sincerely) concerned about how my mind can be readily led, drawn and tasked to thinking of matters that are not, at all, Number-esque! I generate mental solutions and optimalisations by default!
Then, I came to realise that I'm just an autist and that i do this sort of "space planning" by default.....whether that be shoes, T25 spare bits, plant pots.....or the "disappeared!"
Happy Tuesday, mate.
The mob would call that a two man boot ( trunk)
Tidy! (in my best Welsh accent)
Impressive work mate. (Thumbs up emoji)
Finished a full restoration on this one recently, it’s called the gold model, the only part I didn’t do was the pinstripes, that’s why they are straight!
I really do like the first one.....can you get it full width (wing to wing) from the same angle....or did you try that? The XJR is such a deep set, low, wide "road muncher" ...I'd love to see it full width.
I've been photographing my classic Jaguar as I've been working on her and my girlfriend suggested I use a b&w filter, which I have to say does add a real charm to them.
I can't deny, I do like these pictures!
Thank you.
Pegg said: knew a boy at school from Lewes, he was called Lewis
When I was at school I knew a Stuart Stewart.
Pegg said:I remember him saying that an effigy of the Pope is burned, but I'm not sure whether that's true.
Yes, it is.
It is because of Guy Fawkes being a Catholic, so an effigy of the Pope in place at his time is burned.
Pegg said:I just saw that there was an effigy of the Prime Minister this year...
Yes, the effigies are brilliant.
The event also commemorates the 17 Protestant martyrs from Lewes who were burned at the stake.
Here's a Wiki link for anyone interested:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewes_Bonfire#Lewes_Borough
The amount of people there is mad:
'up to 5,000 people taking part in the celebrations, and up to 80,000 spectators attending in the county market town with a population of just over 17,000'
I just saw that there was an effigy of the Prime Minister this year...
I love these photos Debbie.
I knew a boy at school from Lewes, he was called Lewis - really - I remember him saying that an effigy of the Pope is burned, but I'm not sure whether that's true.
I'd forgotten about him until now!
The route of the Lewes processions (see below) is boarded up beforehand!
That gives an idea of the dangers that abound:
Following on from Pegg some photos of the madness that is Lewes on bonfire night (rather a lack of health and safety).
This was in 2018.
It's a fantastic historic event if you can just allow yourself to cut off from the mayhem and utter sensory overload.
And yes, children do walk along with blazing torches.
Oooo those are beautiful photos ^-^
Don’t try to build a tree house, you will fall out of it.
Seeing as it was just Bonfire Night, here are some old photos from a display a few years ago... when I had a camera!
I didn't take this last one, although I was there!
The colours look beautiful too me lovely blends :)
This was taken on the way home today, unfortunately I couldn’t get the whole arch in. The sun was setting so the colours aren’t good.
The scene from The Omen with Ravens is always unsettling, I’m sure inspiration was taken from Hitchcock. I have, ‘ To kill a mockingbird’ on my audio list, my son assured me that no mockingbirds were harmed in the making of it.
Roy said:I think instantly of the crow scene from Dumbo
I think of The Birds by Hitchcock via Daphne du Maurier.
I prefer the short story, which is very different to the film.
I love crows but there is something quite ominous about them.
