Music and Photography

  As I was driving to one of my calls recently, I had my music on through the car sound system. There was a time I would have said stereo, but sound system is very “now”. I have a large and diverse taste in music but on this day, I was thinking not about the genre but the music itself. Why, for instance do I like certain pieces and others not so much? Why do I like certain instruments? To give an example I have the Beethoven...

Being the best

[caption id="attachment_1511" align="aligncenter" width="730"] Being the best by getting very wet[/caption]     I was listening to Desert Island Discs. A lady Judge was being interviewed and she said the way she had got there was by being the best at what she did. Just for a laugh, I put this into google. Well, technically, the search was “how to be the best photographer”. I found this 11 Tips for being a better...

The Sea

  There is something about the coast and the sea that gets to me.

The Small Stuff

      Recently there has been an advert on TV I cannot remember who it was for, but they said to look for and enjoy the small stuff. It is those bits you will remember.

The River at Dawn

The river that is 5 minutes from my house has always had a problem. There is a constant rumbling his that I had presumed was from the town bypass. This is not the case. The noise comes from a sluice that I have to walk past.  Bit of a “doh” moment there. At 4.30 am on a Sunday morning there is little or no traffic about. So, it became apparent that I have been wrong. That the cascading water was considerably noisier than I had ever...
