No dog shot today although we had an agility trial. We had almost continuous rain all day which made it impossible to shoot agility pictures. During lunch break we had a short dry period and I quickly grabbed some shots of a wheat field nearby. The almost golden wheat was covered with droplets and was real attractive to look at. Too bad the sun wasn't shining to make the golden tones more intense.

Time to get some rest... and some warmth after being soaked to the bone :-(

Sometimes you find potential photo subjects in the least likely places.  This was a floral arrangement in the ladies room of a Thai Food restaurant I was having lunch in.  Of course being part of the daily smugmug group, I had my camera with me :D!

Who needs illegal drugs when you have light like this! OK, the saga of the missing book. I eventually found it this morning, under a balloon, just don't ask! I also found £11.20 in the car while I was searching, so a double success. It also instantly relieved my stress levels which were stratospheric last night. Apologies for going AWOL from the Dailies, but I had other things on my mind. Now I'm back, but have 170 photos to process!

Having de-stressed myself I decided that I needed a treat to finish the process off, so I took a trip to a new nature reserve that I'd not been too. The light was magical, soft and golden, the air was crisp and cold, the ground frozen where the sun hadn't reached. I'll post some pics when I sort them out, but this will do for now, straight out of the camera.

Oh does anyone want anymore excitement? The police cordoned off our housing estate last night, imaginations ran riot. It turned out that a conservation volunteer on the local nature reserve had found an unexploded mortar shell while laying hedges!!!
SmugMug > popular all-time > 27.7.08 - Classic English Village Church?

Yesterday was really hot and humid, and when you can't eat anymore ice creams or drink anymore ice cold ginger beer where can you go to stay cool? Well I decided to explore this old churchyard and get some shelter under the trees. Skellingthorpe is just outside Lincoln, about 8 miles from my part of town. The church looks very old, but it is deceptive. I've found it very hard to get information on it, but I think it dates from the 1500s, although it was re-built in 1865, and again in 1916 after a fire. It is certainly very photogenic. I have a small gallery of shots here;  http://johnloguk.smugmug.com/gallery/5548064_iTvPM#339889684_BAiMi

It took me ages to decide on a Daily from these. I did several sepia conversions, some B&Ws and a couple of nice watercolours, but eventually went for this one.
