Day 4 from 37 – 17th July 2012

37 Days – Holiday project.

I don’t intend to underline the fact that age is creeping up on me, but I remember when ‘wireless’ was another word for radio. Families would huddle together to hear the news on The Wireless:  A beautifully polished wooden box that had to be switched on five minutes before your favourite programme started, otherwise you would miss the beginning whilst the valves warmed up.

Today not just the radio, but many other fascinating gadgets seem to work wonderfully without wires, so I’m particularly proud to have an original, working, telegraph pole at the bottom of the garden with lots of old fashioned wires on it. A monument to antiquated technology and the perfect perch for the local blackbird.

Day 4 – Wires: Panasonic DMC-LX2; f/5.6; 1/500s;
ISO 100 – Straight Out Of The Camera
