September, 2008 - FirstView Pictures

[huwevans]

This thread is for posting of FirstView pictures for the 1st of September, 2008. Please read the main About FirstView post, if you have not done so already. You may post only one image here, and it must have been taken on the 1st of September, 2008. Please remember to include the basic details - time and place of shooting, and what we're looking at. If you want to put in a short paragraph explaining what's going on, or why you chose that one, or whatever, then please do, but keep it brief and relevant. Any discussion beyond that can go in the 'Comments' thread. Please do not post comments or other replies here - they will be deleted. This thread is for FirstView image posting only.

The picture thread will remain open for a few days in the first instance, so please try to get your contributions in promptly. People who are perhaps away from home, or need time for film processing, or are otherwise unable to post their images in the initial time slot should pm me - I'll re-open the thread later in the month for late additions. In all cases please remember that the forum image posting rules apply (see the 'POSTING IMAGES' sticky post, which can be found in the Appraisal Gallery).

Finally, once again I would like to draw your attention to the new FirstView Gallery site - we would like as many contributors as possible to make use of this for hosting their FirstView images in order to maintain as complete an archive as possible for the future. Of course if you prefer not to you are still welcome to contribute to the FirstView threads with images hosted elsewhere.

Tidied up the flower tubs in the front garden earlier this morning. This was the last glad standing up and most had been ravaged by caterpillars, so I cut them all down. This one hasn't reached the recycle bin yet.

You can't start off the afternoon without a nice mug of tea, tasting especially lovely from the AP Mug!

..rather than extreme ironing.



Currently hurt and recovering from my cycle accident, I managed to do some ironing (painfully) whilst watching a video of the Vaughan Williams prom from the weekend.

Nearly 3000 miles pedalled since the end of April, with still no idea where I'm going....... The bike does look better than me though!

This was taken on arriving back home after riding 34 miles this morning.

This is Justin nicking coffee from my office again because he's too bl**dy lazy to get it from the canteen.

Picking up monthly prescription from the vets.

Also trying out HDR thingy which certainly brings out the shadow detail (also noise )

Orange wine, just starting to ferment after the yeast was added yesterday.

Took at 6.15 this morning. Finaly paid off the mortgage, but the deeds are so damp, must have been kept in a dungon. Drying out in the sun.
