DailyPhotos > popular all-time > Sep.22,2006 To smile or not to smile Wanted to capture the drop reflections again. Was experimenting with how many smilies I can squeeze into the drop based on how far away the drop was from the background. This seemed optimal without cluttering up the drop too much. Wish I got this a bit more in focus. Here's the levels corrected version based on all the comments.

DailyPhotos > popular all-time > Day 22 - Windy Day at Prospect Bay Well, weatherman called for snow, then it turned to torrential rain, first with the deluges, then with near hurricane winds. I didn't hear any hurricane warnings!!! The wind gusts were hitting 80MPH or more last night. The windows were bouncing and doors were shaking. So I expected more of the same today. Nope! Remember that saying, don't like the weather wait 10 minutes. Well, it was sunny and blue skies with 40mph winds. I knew where I was headed! Prospect Bay. The bay is one of the farthest tips into the Atlantic Ocean and it sees a lot of wave action. These waves are so unpredictable, I don't think surfers even bother with this area. As you can see, this wave is viewed from upon a hilltop - the average spray heights today had to be in the 50 to 60 ft range when they smashed into the granite rocks. I bet the town is grateful for those granite rocks, they act as a natural break water. Notice the white rock how smooth it is. This is the same type of rock formations found at Peggys Cove, which about 20 miles south from here. The wind was so strong and bitterly cold - I could only take small exposures for roughly 15 minutes at a time. I still feel the chill in my bones. I had to hold the tripod with one hand, trying to keep my foot near one of the legs, and I left the camera strapped around my neck. For a few moments, the wind was so strong, I had to turn around to breathe. :) I had so many awesome shots today! The sun was battling a massive snow storm over the Atlantic. Half the sky was dark grey and dark blue, the other was all puffy white and powder blue. When the Sun was over taken by the thick dark clouds, within moments the temp dropped roughly 10 or more degrees - you could actually feel the blast of cold air. Next thing I know, ice pellets were stinging me in the face, and snow - the sky was full of snow. Thick white puffy snow. That lasted for about an hour, then it was all gone. The sun came out and showcased some awesome rays of light which cast spot lights on the rocks and lit up the ocean. Pretty cool. I could have stayed there all day! I ran out of space on the memory card and batteries died. :( When it gets very cold I notice the camera starts to act a bit odd. Oh well.. next time. I keep telling Barb we should get a house down there. :) PS ... and Barb says NO WAY!!! (signed Barb :). Mar 09 2008
DailyPhotos > popular all-time > 1.8.08 - Absent Friends I seem to having lots of anniversaries at the moment. Yesterday I completed my first 6 months in the Dailies, and tomorrow I will have been in my new flat for a year. Today would have been my 27th wedding anniversary, but for the fact that my first wife Gill died of a brain haemorrhage on July 20th 1986. This photo was taken in January 1985, at the end of a wonderful day walking in the Derbyshire Hills. The original was a colour transparency, and is in another gallery, but this has been cropped and tidied up a bit for the Dailies. Gill and I shared a love of wild places, especially mountains, but as a cash strapped young couple we never got beyond the UK. This was good in that it allowed our daft black lab "Kelly" to go everywhere with us, we were quite a team. We had great plans, but they were all for a future that never happened for us. After Gill died my attitude to life changed considerably, never put off 'til tomorrow what you can do today, you never know what might happen. Much has happened in the intervening years, some bad, but most good. One of the best experiences of recent years has been joining the Dailies and making many great new friends, albeit at the other end of fibre optic cables halfway round the world. You guys have taught me so much, about myself as well as about photography, and long may it continue :)
