OK So you're probably all going "didn't even know you'd been gone!" !!

I spent the last 3 weeks in isolation in hospital here in Leeds with an infection in my brain and lungs :( Sadly this has left me very weak and unable to walk more than a few steps. I have had various pieces of 'equipment' installed around the house to make life a little bit easier but recovery will be a long and slow process :(

Bummer! Photography is a real passion of mine and sadly at the moment I am very limited with what I can do but I have decided to try a 'Picture A Day' Blog for 2007, hopefully this will go some way to stopping the boredom from setting in!! So thought I'd take this opportunity to show you all the first 2 days...

MY PAD BLOG 2007

Would love you guys to check it out, feel free to leave comments and keep popping back :)

Thanks for reading.

Best wishes to each of you for 2007,

Natalya :)
 
Eeewwww. Not fun.
Get well soon as they say.
 
Get well soon! :) Looking forward to photos of every household item you can get your mits on. :lol:
 
Sounds pretty crappy to me. Sorry your new year has gotten off to a bad start. But think of how good your macro photography will be! I love your first two.
 
Not at all Natalya ... you were missed of course ... :D

Saddened to hear you have not had the best start to 2007 ... but happy to hear you are on the mend ... :clap: ... however long it takes I wish you the speediest possibly recovery back to your old self ... ;)

I am sure we will do our best to keep you amused and stop the boredom setting in ... :eek: ... and look forward to your 'one-a-day' pics to give us inspiration ... :thinking:

Take care and be well as soon as ... whilst taking full advantage of the enforced rest at the same time ... :D



:p

 
So sorry to hear your bad news :( I hope taking photos helps to keep you going
 
Welcome back Natalya.
So sorry to hear about your recent problems, but good to hear youre on the mend now.
Try not to get too frustrated with your progress, I know how that feeling of 'when will I feel like me again' can bring you down.
Keep up the blog, keep getting better, and well, I guess youll just have to hang out here a little more now wont you ;)
Take care.
 
Was going to say "sounds serious" but that would be understatement of the year in only the 3rd day :D

Good that your still here, good to have you back, and hopefully you'll make a fast and complete recovery :thumbs:

Take it easy:D

(off to look at the blog:D)
 
Thanks for your kind words guys :) It's really appreciated. Although I am home things are going to be difficult for quite sometime and I need to just realise that for the forseeable future I can't do all things I used to. BUT! I'm a fighter :o) I've come too far to let a little thing like this get me down :)

Thanks also for checking out the blog, I am currently in the middle of taking todays photo but its proving a little more difficult than I expected!!
 
Just popped over to your Blog/PAD Natalya ... looking good with a couple of great pics to start the month/year off ... good luck with it ... :thumbs:

One question ... Talj ... :thinking:




:p

One question ... Talj ... :thinking:

Hehehe ;)

I have been known as talj in various places for many years!! Originally it comes from naTALya and my surname begins with the letter J (Jagger...no relation!) so equalling talj :) Hope that helps? :)

Oh and thanks for the comments!! ;) Very much appreciated :)
 
Sorry to hear about health problems Natalya, Hope you make a speedy recovery.
Just been over to your Blog, really like the mug shot.
 
thanks again for your thoughts and comments :)

Have just posted DAY 3 of my Photo a Day, have gone for laughter today...I hope everyone else chuckles as much as I did :)
 
welcome back!
 
Sorry to hear you've been ill - sending cyberhugs and best wishes for a speedy recovery :hug:

Love the 2nd pic in your blog - the one of the mug. It's very simple, yet very striking.
 
DAY 4 of my Photo A Day for 2007 is up and I would really appreciate any comments you guys have as I struggled with todays!!

Thanks for reading :o)
 
A totally shameful plug for feedback on todays Photo A Day all comments would be gratefully received :)

thanks for reading :)
 
Welcome back! I too am doing a photo a day blog. I'll add your link to my friends list :)

Sorry to hear of your illness, at least you're on the road to recovery, which is the right direction.
Hope you're feeling much better soon. I know how hard it is to find a photo a day without being poorly too, so kudos to you for keeping it up!

I'll be checking back daily, and also feel free to keep sharing the shots with us on the forums. We don't mind a bit of personal pimpage from regulars :)
 
Am adding you to myPAD links and will be sure to check in daily! I am trying to post my image and then comment on everyone in my PAD links list! Gives me something to do to pass the time!

Had a little setback yesterday, I had another blackout andhave managed to sprain my wrist which is a b****r when I was already struggling to walk with my crutches :( Just means at the grand old age of 26 I now have home help coming in twice a day!! Nothing depresses a stubborn independent person more than admitting you cant cope! But hey ho, I'll get better....I WILL GET BETTER!

Thanks for the good wishes...off to add you to my links...will comment on your PAD's tomorrow (if it allows me?) :)
 
Yup it allows unregistered comments :)
I've just left a comment on your day 4 :thumbs:
 
DAY 6 of my Photo a Day 2007 journey. Would love comments/feedback on this image as I am not sure if it 'works' or not :)
 
I've replied. :)

I certainly do think it works. Your images this week have been excellent. And as someone has said on the recent 'day's comments, I think they may do quite well as stock shots.
 
Thanks Marcel and all of you for checking in.

It's not been a good 24 hours for me, a trip to A&E and some rather nasty but nice morphine injections. Am not doing too good but have posted DAY 7 of my Photo A Day.

This may have to be the last post I make for a few days unless my health improves dramtically...we'll see....

Thanks for checking my Photo a Day out :)
 
DAY 8 and there are 3 photos today...would appreciate comments/critiques and opinions on which you prefer :)
 
DAY 9 of my Photo a Day is up, I am finding it harder to come up with unique things in my kitchen!!

All comments/critiques gratefully received :)
 
Health grill? :D
I was going to say George Foreman, but they dont have recesses like that, they have wide recessed with thinner ridges.

And I'd say the lid, rather than the bottom half.
