An occasional Photo Blog
Although I did manage to cut the lawn on Saturday afternoon the evening brought with it torrential rain. Sunday morning I was out and about with the camera but thankfully the Pentax’s waterproof features were not needed. As you can see, Saturday night’s rain did cause a bit of flooding down in the village but today, Tuesday, the water has gone and some sunny images are on the cards for the rest of the week. Reason enough to enjoy a big fat ice cream in our favourite restaurant’s garden.
Welcome to my new project: Summer-fourteen.
Saturday morning saw the beginning of the school holidays. The traditional kilometre long traffic jams heading south through the Alps already made the news on Friday evening. Thousands will be bound for foreign lands to enjoy a week or two of all inclusive indulgence and a break from day to day life.
Once again I’ll be using the opportunity to stretch my legs in half empty commuter trains and enjoy a sort of holiday feeling by photographing all sorts of mundane subjects under the summer sun.
Sun? The sky looked decidedly grey on Saturday morning, and judging by the weather we’ve been having during the week the sunflower would probably be the only sun I’d be seeing all day. Fortunately I was mistaken, the afternoon was pleasant and the evening brought with it a fascinating light. As a matter of interest I made it home before torrential rains set in for the night.
