Steel City Snapper photography
35mm, medium format and large format film photography (with the odd bit of digital every now and then…)
You may need to click on the picture to see it larger, but there’s a clue there to let you see exactly where I was standing when I took this photo. 🙂

Following on from yesterday’s post about typos, after a bit of faffing about in Firefox I now seem to have a working spell checker when typing blog posts. Hopefully, from now on, there will be fewer spelling errors in my posts!
I have to thank adventurepdx for suggesting that Chrome has a spellcheck feature which might need to be switched on. While I currently use Firefox rather than Chrome, his comment pushed me to see if that browser had a similar feature and if it also needed to be activated, and it did! I now get a bunch of easy-to-spot wiggly lines beneath my many typos, making them much easier to spot and fix.
So, thanks adventurepdx for throwing me a life ring. 🙂

Dotter around the shore of the lakes at Rother Valley Country Park are these life ring holders. They all show environmental wear with cracked paint and algae growth. I expect that they are regularly checked to ensure that they’re fit for purpose, but they have a definite patina’d look about them now.
Although the lens on this compact camera doesn’t feel as sharp as some others I use, it still has a nice took to it. There’s a painterly feel to some of the images it’s made and I like the way it has rendered the waterski cafe on the opposite side of the lake, along with the caravan and (way back on the top of the hill) a white-sided building.
