I can't believe it's almost April already. Where did March go? Shit, where did February go? It was over before it began! Time is marching on quickly nowadays. I've finally fulfilled one of my life's ambitions by getting myself on Google Maps. Here is the link, and for posterity, here's a picture. I sold my rowing machine this week in…
Panoramic Photographs

Panoramic Photographs

Posted inCreativityNo Comments

This was originally posted on my now-defunct creative blog.

My lovely wife and I recently went on our Honeymoon, and whilst learning how to use the panorama function on my camera, I took some interesting photographs.

This photo was taken in Brixham, which is a fishing town. Looking out from the harbour, I wanted to try and capture the scope and sheer amount of boats waiting in one photograph. This nautically themed image is available to buy as a print, canvas or poster at RedBubble.

Day seven was our last day at Lurcombe, sadly. We went to Becky Falls, which was awesome. I love a good walk. I experimented with the panorama setting on my camera, and came up with some quite lovely shots, the best of which you can look at and buy prints of here, or you can look at them and read…

We went to Torquay on day six. There was a lack of good shops and/or arcades - I distinctly remember there being a good arcade here a couple of years ago. We went on the big wheel this time, it was quite good to see the town from that angle. They were playing Daft Punk's Get Lucky while we were…

We had no eggs left on day four and it was a little bit rainy. This made me want to sadface all over the place, but then I remembered it was our Honeymoon, so I stopped being sad and went back to being awesome. We went to the National Marine Aquarium in Plymouth on this day, and they have a…

On Day 3 we finished off the last of the farm eggs (which tasted so much better than regular eggs it must be said), and went to Brixham. I like Brixham, it has a nice atmosphere, and a nice fishy smell to it. I drank too many random beers the night before, and I was hanging a little bit, so…

Day one. This started at home, early Saturday morning. Unlike previous holidays, where I've not really been bothered about getting up early on a Saturday morning ready to travel, I don't tend to work stupidly early on a Saturday morning anymore, so getting up at 5 in the morning hurt. And it didn't help that I did not sleep very…

34. As is tradition - I must say that I don't feel a day older than 25. Jane got me some smelly stuff, a cool Tetris mug that reveals a pattern when hot water is inserted, and a larger memory card for my mp3 player. The James'ses got me a WHSmiths voucher, and Colin and Myrtle got me a lovely…

I was going to do a big old post detailing the day's events, listing everyone who came and trying to write about all the funny things that happened, but I think I'll keep this one private. Suffice to say, it was the greatest day of my life. I love her.

It was a sad day today. Tigger was taken to the vets and put down. He'd been having thyroid problems for a while and he lost loads of weight. It was for the best really, save him from suffering any longer. In honour of Tigger and his legacy, I'm going to repost an old article from a couple of years…
