My old man in his natural habitat. A new taproom.

I'm really enjoying 35mm focal length at the moment despite many finding it dull.

I took the back toilet soap rack off the wall to degunge it. Being chrome plated steel, it's suffering a bit from corrosion but it'll last a year or so longer (I hope)...

 

[AndrewFlannigan]

After a quick dry, I refitted the soap rack and loaded it with a new cake of soap...

... (not forgetting to push the thin old piece of soap into place, by way of saving the planet, one ounce of soap at a time!)

Caravaggio in Belfast by digitaria, on Flickr

A trip to the Ulster Museum in Belfast. They currently have a pair of Caravaggios. The Supper at Emmaus, on the left, is on loan from the National Gallery as part of their bicentenary celebration. But the museum has reunited the painting with (on the right) The Taking of Christ, on loan from the Jesuit Community in Dublin. It is believed that the two works were commissioned together by the same patron and would likely have hung together in his residence. They were separated at some point and have rarely, if ever, been seen together since.

(entrance to the museum and this exhibit is free and it wasn't very busy)

Halfway up a heavily wooded hill, a small stream runs down it in a crevasse, hmm, so I guess this is what they mean by Bosky

Hi, the apple harvest should have started. I suppose, the farmer is still waiting for his helpers from Eastern Europe :






The pears need a little more time ... :

 

[Clive K]

I was working in the Vienne Department today and had my Leicasonic V-LUX bridge camera with me. The light was perfect in as much as there was a light to medium cloud for much of the day.

 

[Carpy2001]

Becoming a regular visitor.

I was actually born on the base; Dad was stationed there and we had a service house on the perimeter.

Hi, shopping at ALDI's. Trying French cider :










Picking up my MERCEDES E430. The waterpump could not be replaced. A special tool was needed the garage did not have. So, I had to find another one to do the job ... :

 

[BADGER.BRAD]

Walter White and Jessie's mobile meth lab has been spotted in Dudley ! ( You will either know what I'm on about or not !) Poor battered old low grade Samsung smart phone, the best thing I can do with the images is give them a retro edit !
