Fifty album

Here are another couple of pages from my album

 

Yesterday I said I had come up with a new project, I am still doing the car show rooms, but as they have to be taken at night and most of our evenings have been wet lately, I have had to stop for the moment.  After my post the other day re projects and reading your comments I some how came up with the idea of photographing telephone boxes to this subject matter but I have done and I am really quite excited about it.  I am mainly looking for red telephone boxes, so far I have five photographed and another one I know of that is in someone's front garden so shall have to knock on the door and ask first.

I was hoping to post two I took on Sunday, but my computer is misbehaving at the moment and will not let me upload photos, although I have managed the above two it has stopped working now, so will post this and try again later with the boxes. xx

Another week flown by...

I was doing so well with blogging regularly then everyday life interfers and it all goes to pot!!! Last week became a blur after Monday :( struggling to remember what I actually did apart from drive around like a mad woman cursing the farmers even more as my nice clean car is now back to square one and caked in mud again!!!!  Not impressed.  Anyway tomorrow is a new week and I can see it is going to be a busy one again.

Tomorrow evening we are meeting up with my cousin and his partner as they are down here for a week, really looking forward to it as I haven't seen them since last year.  The rest of the week is the usual -  work.  I have had the weekend off and I actually did some scrapbooking..... shock horror I hear some say, yep I carried on with my Fifty album and really enjoyed it. Here are the first two pages,

This is me and my mum, it is a very simple page and I haven't decided yet what journalling to do hence the big gap on the right :)

 

 My dad and I - the journalling says "I had not seen these photos before, until May 2013, when I processed the negatives at college"

 

As it says I processed the photos from negatives I have from when we cleared mum's house out, I hadn't seen them before, so you can imagine my excitement as well as the emotions (dad died when I was 11, just turned 50),

 

I shall add more pages as the week goes by. 

I remember now that last Monday Mick and I went down west to find the Tinners Way path on the Penwith moor, apparently it is 36 miles long but we only did approximately 3 (that was enough for my leg - that is another story in itself) anyway it wasn't a very exciting walk but here are a couple of photos I took.

These stones are known as Chun Quoit and you can read about them here

It was a glorious day whilst we were walking but it did come to rain in the afternoon.

 

Thank you all of you who told me about your photography projects, it is nice to know what inspires others to take photos of certain things.  I have come up with a new project and one that I am very excited about and we went out today so I could start collecting some images, I shall tell you about it during the week.
