Pairs...

When  I was sorting through today's photos, I thought these pairs went together quite well!

I especially love the reflection of the sky in the pond :)

I tried to film a flock of long-tailed tits, but most of them had flown away. They can still be heard, faintly...

Nice Moments...









Well, I'm enjoying 2012 so far!...
 Last year had lots of good times too, but the year flew by so quickly... It feels as if a whirlwind of good times entered my life at the start of the year, and bestowed good things into my life throughout the year, and then the year was over all of a sudden, and I want to somehow be able to preserve the memories for ever...

I've got lots of photos scattered around in various folders on my laptop, and various rolls of film waiting to be developed, but it might have been an idea to do something a bit more concrete, so I think that this year I'll do more blogs - well the project366 should definitely help preserve memorable times in 2012...

Sometimes it's just a nice moment, rather than a big event, that makes life that bit more special... Like yesterday, for instance... a spontaneous walk on Tynemouth beach, including a spontaneous breakfast in the cafe on the beach. See pictures above...

Project 366, Day 3 (video): staring at the sea...

 
3-366
 
A short clip of the sea... I loved the clouds and changing light in the sky, and the spray on the tops of the waves, and the reflections continously being uncovered then hidden, as the sea flowed in and out...

Surfer, Tynemouth, UK


This isn't the best photo I took today, but I like the way the surfer emerges from the waves, with the spray looking quite ethereal and misty along the tops of the waves.  I like the way that movement has been captured in one shot...



footprints...



I couldn't resist taking a photo of these footprints on my walk this morning!

Slightly strange moment of the day...


When I was having a walk this morning, it was rather strange to come across this tin of dog biscuits - presumably left there for dogs to help themselves to...

Apologies for the fact that it's sideways! For some reason I can't rotate it. If you'd like to see this upright I've also posted it here (click on the word 'here')

Being pensive on the beach... (project366 video, Day1)

Me and Iona had a lovely walk on the beach yesterday. We took loads of photos as we usually do, but we also made a few short little videos, including this one of my eyes...

I'm not sure how long this will last, but I'll try to post a shortish (mainly under 2 mins) video every day this year...

Happy New Year! Welcome to Project 366 - Day 1 !

Hello! Happy New Year!

Well, a new year has begun, and I'm starting another project - time will tell how long I manage to stick to it! Another photo challenge - this time I've decided to take a photo each day this year and upload it to my blog. I'll maybe add it to flickr as well, but I don't want to be having to post it to too many different places, or that will make it too complicated, and it will be straying too far from the simplicity of the project that is so appealing- one photo, once a day, for one year...

Here is today's photo:
