Popped up the Monument for the first time, on a whim. It was good, but there were a lot of steps. (311, in fact. It's the world's tallest free-standing stone tower.)

20_01: World's Worst Wildlife Photographer, 2010


Walking the dog, I stopped in amazement as these two beautiful young deer stepped lightly across my path and stood still, almost posing, in the snowy woods. After scrambling my camera out of my pocket, switching it on, finding it on the wrong setting, and almost dropping it, I managed to get this picture just as they disappeared.

The Gate, Smithfield. 6pm. Waiting for a director who cancelled at the last minute. Reminded me of a comment from Len Cheesman I'd seen earlier in the day on cdpcelebration recalling the acerbic wit of John O'Donnell. O’Donnell, seeing him on his own at the bar, shouts across from the group he's with and says, "Len, don't drink on your own... fuck off home.".
And with that in mind, I did.
