Getting ready to go bed...



...while I wonder about the nuances of Battlestar Galactica...

...and Frani kitten's, like, I'm just yawning, and eating Emma Rugg's hamsters is the furthest thing from my mind, that's the godshonesttruthgov...

Cotton thread...



Today I'm off to see a beautiful lattice made of cotton threads, currently installed at the Red Gallery, Hull. It's the work of Sarah Evans who is, quite frankly, amazing.

Animals do the funniest things, really.



...Cats are so funny...



...when they lick their noses...

A snoozy, Sunday afternoon of photography



The thing about photography is that it makes even the most dreary, damp, overcast weekend a pleasant one. I'm not sure why or how it does this: maybe it's something to do with the entire process being so often so unhurried: metering, focussing, composing, holding your breath as you gently squeeze the shutter into action. Maybe, it's the temporary darkness that comes over your vision as you bring a huge black camera to your one remaining open eye and peep intensely through its tunnely-viewfinder, at once walled away from your subject and yet, intrinsincally, a part of it as your brain records how it looks, perhaps for the first time with any accuracy.

Well, whatever. Here's a picture of a vanishing Humber Bridge.

Weddings and children...



Finally, after reading and re-reading Thomas Hardy's 'Darkling Thrush' poem (something of a tradition amongst certain members of my household) in celebration of the new year, I got round to post-processing photos from a wedding I attended a few weeks back.

There's something very similar about photographing animals and photographing children - I'm just not quite sure what.
