Went to Foxton Locks today with the intention of getting HDR (High Dynamic Range Imaging) out of my system. Unfortionately its fueled my interest. I only wish my lens wasn’t filthy!
I’ve put the best of it up on Flickr but I wasn’t too happy with the result but I think I know now what’s going on… You’ll need light (not too much), some beautiful cloud coverage, a tripod, decent lens (wide angle seems to work best) and a patient girlfriend!
I went down to Worthing with Lindsay on Saturday to see her Nanna, I complained at the time but actually on reflection had a good time! It gave me a chance to play around with my new best friend HDR (High dynamic range imaging).
I first found out about the technique from Dan Norcott who has some stunning photo’s on Flickr.
On the way home we went over to Bluewater shopping center, impressed with the size but I think Its not that far off Milton Keynes. Home now, in bed, tired and in need of sleep.

We (me and Lindsay) went over to Corby this morning to meet up with Graham & Flora. We milled around a place called Clearance Bargains for a while then went to a Brewers Fayre in Kettering where I had an amazing sandwich featuring award winning sausages!
Flora has a blog called Little F, can’t say I understand Chinese but its great to see more friends on WordPress!
Going to make a smoothie in a bit, then think about fresh bread. Not going outside again today - mad cold!
Nice to meet you Flora!
I’ve been measuring through Analytics my sites Keywords for some time. I haven’t done any specific optimisation so its been fun to see how it all levels out with only relying on Blog entries.
Interesting stuff thought, I’m not doing too bad certain phrases:
| robin gunningham banksy | 11.99% |
| imperial bento | 9.25% |
| robin gunningham | 8.90% |
I get the ‘Robin Gunningham’, ‘Banksy’ thing but ‘Imperial Bento’, those guys really need a website!
I had the pleasure of visiting West Lodge Rural Centre this afternoon. The place was amazing! I’ve never been to a petting zoo before, but I’m a changed man.
I saw the biggest bunny (complete with 4 week old babies), some pigs, slightly smaller pigs, some baby pigs, some chickens, geese, a baby cow, sheep and loads more.
They also have this cool fish farm next door where I fed Koi carp. Couldn’t persuade Stewart to buy a pair of Angel fish or this albino cat fish. Should have cost £4.50 to get in but we manage to scam the door without even realising it.
