I had a cunning plan Paul, but unfortunately I fluffed it completely.

Will have another try at something this afternoon/evening and see how it goes.

I accompanied my good lady and daughter to church this morning - not a comfortable experience due to the unforgiving pews and that fact that I am an athiest :) And now my back hurts.  :'(

Sorry Paul, didn't get an entry done for the comp.  This is the end of week two without my camera coming out of its bag.

I think I might have lost my mojo!  :(

Well Paul, even thought we had a BBQ with some neighbours yesterday, and consequently a few beers may have been consumed, I managed to find a few moments to get something . . which as it turned out is only blurry in the places I intended it to be. Result.

I have to admit mine was by chance. I had no intention for an early start, then seeing the moon where it was I guessed with a brisk walk I would get it and the sunrise in the single frame.  :legit:

Yes you all saw through my pathetic attempt to make a last minute replacement for my first idea fit! It didn`t of course. Thwarted by rain and lack of time I am afraid. Cannot remember a time when I have taken fewer photos. :(

Me too - taking far fewer than usual. I've a major (for me) photo project on which means arranging and keeping a couple (at most) of short appointments a day, but, probably due to still very disapponting weather I don't seem to have inspiration for much else.
