This is my favorite image and I have taken many to get this close to being happy with the end result. I still have many to take I am sure, different sky lines, times of the day, angles.

These are apartments in Hazeldine Way and the few face the river. I intend to contact the occupants and see if they are interested in purchasing a glossy 10 x 8 of thier humble abode (slight irony in my voice when I utter 'humble').

The signs here amaze me.

People sit on each end of this bridge and beg for money. There is a bookmakers at one end, a bar a the other. The chances of meeting a drunk bad loser who has not bathed in weeks is more likely than a some one on a bike, "cycling" at that.

The bridge is so narrow I would rather meet a cyclist ON a bike than walking alongside it as it takes up less room!

I launched this blog today to try and capture my thoughts and also the details that went into the photographs that I have taken.

I try and take early morning, late afternoon/evening photographs most weekends. This morning I woke at 7.00 but couldn't stir in time to catch the light so started this instead.

I use a Nikon D3000 and an 18-55 Nikon VR lens currently. This is my first DSLR after many early years with 35mm Pentax's. I am learning all the time and had some great tips and tution from Steve Morris.
