Fading fast

I thought I'd have one more go at these tulips before they were completely done. Appalled to see how many particles I have on my sensor, one of the banes of DSLR photography. All my kit is showing signs of age - like me. Nearly time to invest.

I was impressed by two news photographs in the past week: the David Rose shot of a man throwing a Molotov Cocktail in the Ukraine (number 1 in this series). I wanted to link too to a brilliant shot in today's Daily Telegraph of the Duchess of Cambridge by Jorge Herrera at the National Portrait Gallery. Sadly, I can't find it online. Maybe it will be there tomorrow.

Memories of Dougie (good ones) inspired a little poem-like note I added to the blip posted the other day when he died.
