    Hardy lot you guys

    Yesterday's Challenge Cup final, a minute or two after the heavens opened. Fortunately I stayed in shirt sleeves as I was nicely undercover but it was fun watching everyone grabbing the rain gear (and the speccies from the front few rows hot-footing it undercover) And I swear that's a hint of...

    Best way to keep up with sporting events near you?

    Fixtures are generally put on the league websites a couple of weeks in advance at the most as they are always subject to change, especially when cup games are on. That also means, for my age groups at least, then the club websites won't get updated until the beginning of the week before the...

    RUgby Football League

    So who have I got to gain inspiration from now then????? Better get out to the amateur grounds more often now guys. (Yes I know Gary does) Might have a poor lens but was doing the best I could and learning from those on here the better type of shots to get. Good job I purchase one paper at...

    Thanks Anth - I'm lucky in that I only have myself to worry - no more dependent kids! Also get into Manchester before 8 and start work at 9! No rush to get home, hubby can wait for his evening meal:lol:

    Thanks. All taken on my P&S so far - #3 was taken on a very grotty night, late & wet. At least I now know the limitations of the camera. Struggling at the moment with it being dark to and from work, come summer it will be better although I suspect a lot will then be candid shots. There's an...

    Jackie's 52 2011 - Accomodation

    Having given up early last year due to personal issues I've decided to start again this year. Not particularly happy with the outcome of this shot as it was a bit rushed and I was lacking in inspiration. Having to shoot with just my in-camera flash doesn't help. Should have moved the stray...

    Jackie's 221......bear with me on this. 4 from week 2 added.

    Thought I'd try a challenge with a difference this year; a play on a 365 but only working days (260 less 30 days hols and 9 bank hols) unless of course I'm ill in which case it will reduce. The only rules I'm setting myself are to either: 1) take a photo on my way to work 2) get myself out...

    Photo52 2011 - Join In !!! - Week 52 and special bonus out now -

    Ended up ducking out last year after 8 weeks or so. May as well start again and see how far I can get. Have bought a P&S as well now to carry around every day so those moments of inspiration may well be easier to come by.
