Winging it. Manchester

Forgive me its been a while...

We went to the airport to catch a plane for some holijollies with the family. Booked not to long before the big day, we had two flights instead of the one that would have been ideal, if all was well we would had 2 hours to get though slow moving immigration, grab our bags and run for a connecting flight.
As shown here at Manchester waiting for our first light to arrive it looked kinda murky to me, it was rather late coming in, not because of the fog, but winds at Philadelphia where we were going to make the connection.

Thanks for looking.

Parfum, Diptych. HMM!

Its been a while, been busy recently... thought it was time for a macromonday, its what mondays are for right?

Anyway here's a couple of snaps in a diptych of some contrast and lines from a bottle, always like the various lens effects that the glass and plastic make.

Anyway hope you are all doing great.

Last light at the Mile. (Happy New Year) Crosby

A mono treatment on this square.
Would love to say that it was the close of light for 2011 on Crosby beach, but its reprocessed from one taken about a year ago.

Its been a hard year for many, with the balance of ups and downs.

But looking back on a year in black and white and forwards to a full of colour 2012.

Happy New year.
