Result!

I went out with my ‘new’ camera this morning, and snagged the following photo (among others) I am over the moon. I would have been anyway, as we had extended views of it (bearded tit) but actually getting a clear photo made my day.

 It’s raining, so I can’t (well I could) garden. I’m going to have a leisurely afternoon catching up on photo magazines. Also we’re on a really good week with the Dig Phot OU course. We’re looking at a sort of history of the photo, set in various cultural climates, e.g. Pop Art. I have made a ‘Jackson Pollock’ out of some downtrodden winged seeds, so when I get a bit more energy (up about 5.30am) I will do more experimentation. Here’s the Jackson Pollock.

There was one sad thing. Last night when we got in, Ali had left a message. Liam had fallen over in the school playground (grass) and cut both hands on some glass. He had to go to hospital and had ‘glue’ on one hand and butterfly stitches on the other.

Apparently older kids get into the playground at night. The janitor checks every morning but had missed the green glass in the green grass. Anyway, Liam showed us his bandaged hands on Skype this morning, and didn’t seem too bothered. He was hoping to have time off school, but no such luck.
