model towns

i was hoping i'd have some pictures of the vans tours visit to coppull trails to post but, seen as they didn't bother going, i've not. i got shouted at for not updating this so i thought i'd put something up. these are pictures i made on photoshop [during my free 30day trial]. you take a picture of buildings/streets etc, then on photoshop you can make it look like a model town. well that's the idea. here's my attempts.

exciting stuff, eh.

rain rain go awayyyyyy!

it's raining outside.....again. just like it started to do as soon as we set off for manchester gates last night. luckily it stopped after a while, and i managed to take some piccies, mostly of the rainbow. i thought i'd post a couple from last night, while i sit here and wait for summer to arrive.

thunderstorms in july?

the weather seems to be getting more & more extreme. for a while we had sunny, summer like goldcoast, then we had rainy rainy goldcoast, then more sun, then more rain, then thunder, then it was really hott, and by the time i got home there was a full on thunderstorm happening. crazyyy! the pictures from today are up, and to the right :] i've not really got anything else to say.
send me an email if you want any cards or prints and i'll get it sorted for you :]

i've just noticed the date is 06/07/08, wowiee!

mmhmm

last night was the first time i've been to manchester track when it hasn't been blowing a gale and/or raining, which meant i actually had a reason to get my camera out :] and use my 85mm lens, which i really should use more often 'cause it's ace [not that any of you care, or know what i'm on about]. anywayyyyy i've made an album of the pictures i took, incase people want to see themselves, that can be found here. it'll be deleted in a few weeks like so if you want the piccies get them quickk! oo i've used a new album layout for it, let me know what you think of it pleaseee?

the sea & sunsets & racing.

i told you i'd have all the hartlepool pictures posted by midday :] there's two albums; one from saturday & one from sunday!

i think i'll do this by listing notable things of the weekend.
ethans injury - before he even made it on the track. other peoples inuries - two broken wrists & more. clean toilets. the nice security guard who let us in to see the ship by the marina after hours :] people from cornwall making the effort to come up. the sun shining, and the rain holding off. finishing early enough to get home by tea time [even though we didn't] ice cream for afters. 6 in elite. whaaaaa? ace racing to watch, despite the poor turnout. less dust than at the regional. the track being open after practice on saturday.
[i'm bored now so i'll add more when i think of things]

ethan's having his op today, he's got a gashed open chin, & he's broken his fib & tib, and needs a plate & screws. he's fine though, and should be home tomorrow.
*UPDATE - ethan's had his op & all is good :]

send me an email if you want prints or cards making of any of the racing pictures. details are on the right of the page.
