I just uploaded my photos of the Bristol Balloon Fiesta Nightglow to Flickr. Click the image if you're interested :-)
Given that it tooke me about 26 miles of riding to get to the bridge I figured that once there I should really take a picture...
This morning I made a serious attempt at photographing star trails. Rather than sitting out in the cold for a few hours on my own I decided that to get a method down I'd try shooting out my window, allowing me to stay inside in the warm and also use my computer to remotely take photos for me. This way I could watch a dvd while seeing photos magically be downloaded onto my computer without having to press a shutter button or time exposures manually.
I'd had a previous attempt last night, messing around taking shots out my window and got to an exposure time of 990 seconds for a single photo. After managing two of these my battery gave up as it wasn't fully charged to start but with two images I could test out the stacking of the photos to see how it would go.
Dave in the queue at the Big Pit: Sitting waiting for our turn for the underground tour at the Big Pit. Dave either has an obsession with his iPhone (it was almost never out of his hand, while he 'stroked' it's touchscreen) or I am too boring to keep him amused thus him needing a distraction :-)
Dave Attempting a Panoramic Photo: David attemping to photograph a panorama while on the Brecon Beacons
UPDATED WITH A THIRD PICTURE:
I've been messing about stithing and playing with the photos I took over this weeked while my friend Dave was visiting. The first day that we went out the weather wasn't that great with us only just missing getting a thorough soaking from the rain. As the panorama photos that I took are not really the cheery beautiful sunny kind I decided to have a play and do something different.
Spent some time today playing with some screen cursor tracking software. The results are below.
I only have a couple of pictures of Bill the cat but you can see them below.
I had a bit of fun photographing my parents cats over the Christmas holiday. Nancy the cat sat for a photo session...
