    June, 2009 - FirstView Pictures

    This thread is for posting of FirstView pictures for the 1st of June, 2009. 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 June, 2009. 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 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.

    Inflated my kayak so I could take some pics and measurements for an email I'm sending to an American company that sells sailing rigs for inflatable boats. Hopefully one of their products will fit my kayak

    A corroded wire on a relay switch that sends power to the starter motor of a Volvo 2001 marine diesel. But for the help from members of another forum, I'd probably have spent ages pulling my hair out, and possibly shelling out loads of beer tokens to marine egineer.

    Tree Problem

    General proximity of house, power line, and tree - not good! I meant to cut back this sycamore again over the winter, but just didn't get around to it. Now it's putting on new growth like nobody's business. :-(

    The Ladies 'armless!

    Been building my studio this weekend with the help of my brother. He did all the lifting and the majority of the work. I was helping by supplying tea, biscuits and fastening plasterboards to the walls.

    Found this statue at the back of the studio and took a photo of it this morning as I was cleaning the floor
