Apologies for the dearth of words, hopefully I’ll be back to writing a bit more in the posts soon!

Another quick post this evening as my son and daughter-in-law have been to visit and have only just left.
So, a digital photo I took when we took a trip to Mahon while we were in Menorca. There’s something vaguely Richard Scarry-esque about it. I feel. Maybe Gold Bug is hiding in the scene somewhere. 🙂

Another digital picture from my recent visit to Mablethorpe. The tide had receded and left a lovely reflective sheen on the flat sand, over which this person and their frolicking dog crossed.

As Flickr seems to be having considerable issues today due to the significant AWS outage, I’m uploading a picture directly for a change.
I’ve just picked something I shot a week ago on my trip to Mablethorpe – the place where The Cut, empties into the North Sea via a concrete outfall. It’s another of those things that I’ve photographed on numerous occasions, but the light is quite nice here.

Another quick post this evening as, this time, I’ve just got back from a trip to the seaside.
So here’s a digital shot I took this morning from the bridge across the River Trent in Gainsborough. I took a film shot from the same location, which I hope will turn out as nicely.
I cropped it to a 6×17 ratio, so it’ll probably look nicer if you click through to the Flickr version.

A quick post this evening as I’ve just got back from the cinema (where I saw TRON Ares, which I enjoyed a lot).
Here’s another digital shot from our recent trip to Menorca. This is the Far d’Artrutx lighthouse on the south-western tip of the island. The woman in the shot was there by happenstance, but I think her presence adds a lot to the picture.

I spent the last week in Menorca with my wife (I pre-scheduled the posts with the half-frame pictures that have been popping up over the past seven days – I have a bunch more of those and mean, at some point, to post my thoughts on the camera I used to take them).
While we were away, I shot a couple of rolls of film and also took a bunch of pictures with my little Ricoh compact digital camera too, which I’m starting to post-process. Here’s one of them…

A couple of edited (and cropped) candid shots that I took while waiting to board our flight home from Barcelona just before Christmas last year.
Sometimes it’s good to sit on pictures for a decent length of time. You see them differently and sometimes find things you like which were previously overlooked.

I was planning of writing a post about a trip to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park today, but I haven’t managed to get around to it. So, instead, here’s a digital shot that I took while on holiday last month. I’ve just treated myself to a Nintendo Switch 2, so it seems kinda apt.
