Waxwings, Nottingham 2004
Pictures taken just behind the Carlton Road Library in Nottingham. The light was lousy - it had snowed a few days before and was threatening to again - but although dark the images seem to have come out quite well.
Mute Swan
A selection of mute swan pictures collected together from various other photo pages hosted here.
Nottingham Sunsets, 2003
More sunsets over Nottingham, this time from 2003.
Baslow, Peak District
After doing some work in Manchester, the boys from the Freedom2 Chichester offices managed a detour via a village called Baslow in Derbyshire. I wonder how that happened? Could they be dropping someone off in Nottingham on the way instead of taking him back to work?
The Garden Café furnished us with coffees and some fine omelettes - although I had scrambled eggs and salmon on toast, Bob had another omelette instead of pudding - and then we had a relaxing walk along the Derwent. Well, it beats working.
Manchester Trips 2
Up in Manchester to teach people how to use our systems
Chichester 3
The Cathedral pics are mostly test shots while I waited for the return of the peregrines - only had to wait a week or so as it turned out.
The others are random stuff seen in and around town: the Terminator 2-style burned out cars are the aftermath of a garage fire, and they'd been moved out of the way by the demolition crew.
Docklands 2
Going back to the docklands hosting facility to fix my broken server. To be honest I only know this because when I came to re-do this gallery for the new, new gallery code I could read it on the first image, a picture of the Icon Bar report into what took the server offline.
Dumfries to Chichester
You can tell when I get bored or nervous - I start shooting everything in sight. This is a record of the journey from Dumfries in Scotland back to Chichester on the south coast of England, which took three trains, a 'plane, a bus, and about nine hours.
I took many pictures of the clouds from above when on the 'plane, which was in part due to both boredom and nerves. As I was above the engine I switched to a widescreen mode I found while playing with the camera to cut out as much machinery as possible. I wouldn't have been able to take any pics if it wasn't for the nice Goth girl reading Empire magazine switching seats with me - thanks! :)

Norfolk 2003
The old version of the website broke galleries into separate pages and directories, and required an introduction page just to show up in the list. This is no longer the case, but to avoid dead search engine links here's a quick overview of some of the photos in the Norfolk 2003 collection!
There are 14 galleries in this section.
