Colwick Country Park, May 2006

A walk around Colwick Country Park, with lots of goslings.
London, January 2006

A proper test of my new camera: London in the Winter sun. The lack of an image stabiliser coupled with the low light conditions made for some frustrations, but it wasn't as grainy as I thought when I first got it: I'd accidentally pressed the high speed button and got a high-ISO, very grainy pic. Also don't know how to use the rose properly - it's supposed to shield the lens from glare, but just ended up getting in the way of my wide-angled shots.
We weren't quite sure what the hell was going on when we started getting ushered down this covered roadway, until we ended up with a big crowd of people watching the Horse Guards doing their thing - so, a nice surprise in the end.
Nottingham Castle, March 2005

Despite being Nottingham born and bred, I'd never been on the guided tour under the Castle - the caves known as "Mortimer's Hole". So on a trip back to the city (when I still lived in Chichester), my folks finally took me. As well as looking at spooky caves and dungeons, you also get to hear a lot about the history of Nottingham, including the Saxon foundation (at the Lacemarket nearby) and the start of the Civil War (the raising of the Royal Standard at Standard Hill near the Castle - apparently no-one took much notice and they moved on).
There's also some photographs of the Queen Elizabeth pub on Bottle Lane - just before it got knocked down.

Norfolk 2003: Hunstanton Seal Trip, 3rd September

A boat trip out to see the seals. The camera didn't have the best zoom lens so it's mainly pics of the folks and the boat, and some distant shots of seals on sandbanks.
