  • More in the Same Vein

    This one of a Lancaster Bomber was taken in Aldershot last year, The Farnborough Air Show was on and the planes were turning over the garden we were in. I blended it into a different sky as the original was rather grey and bland.

    The next was on the same day in the same garden. A spitfire blended with the sky, then I added the memorial statue of a Pilot from the Battle of Britain Memorial on the cliffs above Folkestone.

    Never Was So Much Owed By So Many To So Few

    Both these aircraft are from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight. I would like to think the second image is a fitting tribute to the "Few".

  • New Skill

    Well all we is getting here is rain, watch the news and see snow everywhere. Still at least we can get around.

    Another evening class last Wednesday, and starting to get into some interesting techniques. I created this one from 2 pics one a statue which I blended into the cemetary scene. I quite like the effect.

    I will have to do the follow on course I think.

    We are getting some interest in Hazels sugarcraft too, maybe she will get some sales soon, heres hoping.

    Ok thats it for now, catch you all later.

  • In the Snow

    Well it was the heaviest snowfall for 18 years in the South east. Commerce, education, and transport ground to halt.

    Blink and we would have missed it here in Folkestone, by 1430hrs it had turned to rain and by 1800 hrs all traces had disappeared. It actually suited us as we had to drive to Ashford to visit my dad in hospital.

    But not to be undone we did venture out on foot earlier to capture some images of the big event :DD. The first was taken by Hazel of me fumbling with numb fingers to adjust my camera.

    Of course I had to get owners backers so caught one of Hazel on the top of the cliffs overlooking the Channel.

    We did walk about 3.5 miles and took lots of pics so will revisit and post as I edit them. I know some of you have caught it far worse than here so hope you are all keeping snug and warm, speak again soon.
