This post reminds me of the episode of Red Dwarf, Me Squared, where Lister tries to find out why Rimmer's last words were "Gazpacho Soup". He finds Rimmer's diary:
January 1st: I have decided to keep a journal of my thoughts and deeds over the coming year; a daily chart of my progress through the echelons of command so that perhaps one day other aspiring officers may seek enlightenment through these pages. It is my fond hope that one day this journal will take it's place alongside Napolean's war diaries and the memories of Julius Ceasar.
Next entry - July 17th: Auntie Maggie's Birthday.
(It's November 25th, by the way - Gazpacho Soup Day.)
So, here we are, a mere 8 months since my last post. It's not Auntie Maggie's birthday (I don't have an Auntie Maggie anyway); I wanted to let my faithful readership know about my new hobby - photography.
I'm very pleased with my new Nikon D60. The D60 is getting on a bit, at about 18 months old now (in technology years, positively ancient!) but feature/quality/price trade-offs made it (in my opinion) the best option for me.
I realise buying an expensive camera won't automatically make my pictures better - it's so easy to take crap pictures with an expensive camera. I should know - I have! But with a good camera in hand, it's going to give me the impetus to get out there and practice.
So feel free to browse my photostream on flickr. Constructive criticism is welcome!
I'll add more existing pictures soon, and new ones as I take them. Visit regularly, or subscribe to my flickr RSS feed.
Enjoy.
