From Blackfriars Bridge – waiting at Blackfriars station for a (delayed) train.
Next time I’m planning that particular journey I’ll take the wide-angle lens. This one can’t really do justice to this view!

It has been truly freezing the last few days. Monday’s snow took till Wednesday evening to thaw. Here’s Tuesday’s picture; a warming shot of fire. Keeping the faith with the 50mm lens. More variety coming soon though – promise!
Technical notes:
Nikon D90, Nikkor 50mm f1.8 AF 1/60 @ f/4, ISO 800. In-built flash.
Snow on the ground; first shoots of spring.
Still keeping going with my 50mm ‘plastic fantastic’ lens. Need to re-learn how to use it to its’ best effect.

Lazing on the spare bed on a Sunday afternoon.
Again, I’m trying out using my 50mm f/1.8 lens without flash. Yes, everyone should get one, whether Canon or Nikon owner – and I’m sure there’s an equally fabulous cheap prime lens from the other major manufacturers too…
Technical notes:
Nikon D90, Nikkor 50mm f1.8 AF 1/50 @ f/14. Experimenting with no flash.
New wall lights put up this morning. Tripped the trip switch, the light’s a lot more fantastic than it was. Result – we’ve got rid of the old horrid cheap-looking ones, and no longer need to buy a separate reading light as there’s now enough room light from three of these.

I met a man who wasn’t there. Day 2 (in a Big Brother sort of voice).
And for the observant amongst you, noooo shoes!

Note to LJ readers: I will fix this so you don’t have to see big images inline at the weekend!
There’s a great article over at Photojojo of New Year’s Photography resolutions – check it out here.
Having read all of the suggestions, I decided that I already do some of them. Others aren’t practical for me. But… I might just try Project 365. It might be a bit more difficult to actually have the camera with me each day at some point but hey, others (Amanda,Simon, Michelle) have inspired me and I think I should give it a go!
Herewith, picture #1. Me. Ready for action.

PS: Amanda / Spongey / Meeshy – best to post to a community or to a group on your f-list that people can opt in-and-out of? What worked for you?
The diet bit the dust for the Christmas break. Variously, I can recommend:
