Day 59

Well this wasn't what I has in mind.  I'd taken some shots of old A&P but,  again the laptop wouldn't read the SD card!?@$%  So instead I've got this one of the two moggies sleeping... ahhh...

Day 48

Oh Dear...
Be careful, this is what half a bottle of red wine and a curry will do to you.. I'm in Cardiff and, once again this is the best I can come up with??
To be fair I fell asleep and woke up about 5 minutes ago so I have that in my defence.
Hopefully tomorrow, weather permitting, I should do better...

Day 47

Long day...
Umm.. struggled today. This only just fits the criteria. It has been a long day.
This was an (unsuccessful !)  attempt at a Pc/TV arty shot. It's been a long day, I'm tired.  On the plus side this years date for the Photo-marathon is 12th June.  And it's digital. Should be fun.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.
This was one of those 'spur of the moment' photo's. I was watching The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (as you do) and reading this article here where it suggested using the 'P' mode.

So I did..
