210/365 - In the pub
I'm over in St. Helens before I head down to the Cambridge Folk Festival tomorrow so me and Dad went out to the Sandpiper for dinner.
Not sure how many photos I'll manage to upload over the next few days but rest assured they will eventually appear.

208/365 - Geeking about
I got new printer today, it is nice. However I couldn't afford one which was network enabled so I have set about building a print server from some spare bits I had in the house.
This is the mother board.

207/365 - Change Is Possible
Today I took inspiration from the car park payment machine in Newbridge's White Water Shopping Centre.
Every time I go to pay and I'm feeling a little like I'm stuck in a rut, it reminds me that 'Change is possible'.

207/365 - Stripey Dawn
One of the unique advantages of fatherhood is geting to see things like this. The sun made an amazing pattern of orange stripes, accross the cornfield in front of our house, as it rose this morning.

203/365 - Celebrate
Labhaoise got some great news related to work today, not going to go into too much detail but it was great!
We celebrated with some faux Champers and a starbar!

203/365 - Fifty fifty
My new (well new to me) 50mm lens has arrived. Pete got his ages ago and has been making great images with it ever since and *everyone* on flickr seems to have one so I finally gave in and bought one from ebay. I went for the mkI version as it is supposed to be better built and has a better manual focus ring. This lens was discontinued in 1990 so is a bit of a collectors item too.

202/365 - THE OY QZ
Labhaoise and I played scrabble this evening using a pocket Scrabble set.
It is possibly the smallest scrabble set I've ever used!

198/365 - Infinity
I've been struggling with this theme all week. I have tried things with mirrors, long tunnels made from Lego and real tunnels, but none of them came out well.
So I've just had to take the easy way out with a picture of the inifinity symbol on my 17-85 lens.

196/365 - Geometric
I had another one of the themes lined up for tonight but I just couldn't get it to work out as I wanted so I had a quick scout around for something else.
This is the driver's side headlamp of L's car, a KA. The curves and intersecting lines very much say 'Geometric' to me. Also I looked on Wikipedia (afterwards) and this is not too disimilar from the 'Tomahawk' geometric shape.

195/365 - Bokeh Bokeh Bokeh
I dug out some christmas lights and but them over the back of a chair, put Labhaoise's guitar in the foreground and snapped away.
There are a few more on Flickr if you care to look.

I have no idea why but it is easier to get a London snow storm in Cambridge than a Cambridge one.

194/365 - Colour
This is my response to the 'Colour' theme set by Andy.
It is a house made out of very brightly coloured fake Lego bricks from the 2 Euro shop.
Once I finished the house I noticed that if you looked through the bottom that it looked pretty cool. So I set up the flash and this is what I got.

194/365 - Lifestyle
This week my brother has set me 5 challenges/themes to use in my 365 shots. I've got the 5 titles swimming around in my head and I've spent all day looking to tick one off so when I found this receipt in the Tesco self service checkout I instantly thought "Lifestyle" - sure its not the perfect lifestyle but none the less. I've also been wondering about doing my own version of Ceal Floyer's work so I think this fits the bill (pun intended) on both counts.

A bit of a challenge
Dearest Readers,
Andy and I have passed the half way point of our project 365 and, I'm sure he won't mind me saying, we are getting a bit stuck for ideas. Taking this on board Andy concocted a challenge whereby we nominate themes for the other.
These are the "rules":
I guess all that is left to do is set the themes for this week:
Pete's Themes for Andy

Andy and I have passed the half way point of our project 365 and, I'm sure he won't mind me saying, we are getting a bit stuck for ideas. Taking this on board Andy concocted a challenge whereby we nominate themes for the other.
These are the "rules":
- We each name five themes on a Sunday, they will be published on the blog (see below)
- All the themes must be used before we resume our normal photography adventures
- A single photo can encompass more than one of the themes
- Each theme can only be used once
I guess all that is left to do is set the themes for this week:
Pete's Themes for Andy
- Winter
- Blue
- Paradise
- Conformity
- Lifestyle
- ABC
- Colour
- Bokeh Bokeh Bokeh
- Geometric
- Infinity

191/365 - Buzz off
On our walk this afternoon I found loads of bees on a lavender bush. I tried to get some shots but the bees were pretty quick. At least I didn't get stung!
