Photography #101

I haven't done much photography for a while but as we all know amateur photography is all about being in the right place at the right time...

A Goldfinch... apparently

Game of Thrones S6 EP1 /FAIL!

Accessed my Sky HD box to start the first recording of season 6 this evening only to discover that the word 'FAIL' listed next to the recording. Fucking Sky and their piece-of-shit hardware.

Game of Thrones is the ONLY reason I don't fuck my Sky subscription off and as soon as it's finished I will anyway, I'm fed-up with Sky and their overly expensive shit.

Not only have they dumped their overspending in Football coverage onto us poor peon subscribers by increasing the monthly subscription, again. They have also, in my opinion, increased the amount of bloody annoying ad-breaks, it's a total fucking joke.

I'd rather spend the £100-odd quid a month they're fleecing me with down the pub.

I'm now downloaded S6 EP1 via On Demand, I'm only watching it tonight in case I find myself reading some retard journalist's 'review' of it which will probably contain an ass-load of spoilers. I've already seen two articles picked out by Google in their News section that threatened to reveal spoilers.

Grr I'm angry tonight.

BHS Into Administration

Details here

Nooo! BHS is the only place I can get a decent 'normal' pair of jeans. All other clothes shops sell stupid expensive poncy types such as ripped, overly stonewashed, covered in weird flaps, or oversized so much that they put my ass-crack on show!

FU Instagram

Well we're back from Worcester, Wasps won convincingly :)

After a looong train journey and loads of beers later we are in our local Walkabout Pub where my brother has just grandly /ragequit Instagram... put simply (by him) it's shit!

Worcester Warriors v Wasps

I'm off to Worcester today to see this game... a win will give Wasps significant progress in cementing their position in the top 4.

Worcester won't be a pushover though, they almost scraped a win back at the Ricoh earlier on in the year.

I've never been to Worcester before, I wonder if the stadium will promote Worcester sauce on their pies?

I think plenty of ale will be consumed despite my reluctance to do so as I had a heavy one last weekend but Rugby + no driving + Saturday + Good company = alcoholic carnage!

Ducks

Ducks crack me up... they always seem to me be in a constant state of utter confusion as to where they are at any moment in time.

I often see them, usually in groups of 2 to 4, waddling around on roundabouts, in car parks, next to puddles in waterlogged areas of grass and all the time looking, utterly confused!

Don't get me wrong, I see plenty if them where they're supposed to be, like in rivers and lakes but, occasionally, some of them seem to have this 'senior moment' where they just get lost!

Ducks, ya just gotta love 'em!!

Email Read Receipts

These absolutely fucking annoy me... I'll read your message in my own goddam time you fucking control freak! Imagine I pressed 'Yes', then I'd be under pressure to respond in a timely manner, making that one e-mail the sole focus out of a potentially busy working day and that's damned annoying, especially if it's from a cold-call(e-mail?) salesperson where they think I've got all the time in the world to deliberate over their fucking digital print media portfolios.

"Ooh I'll just click that 'Yes' button right there!"... said no-one ever.

Gianni Infantino doesn't look 'real'

It is just me or does he look like something that come out of a Taiwanese toy factory?

Or is he is actually a member of the Founders?

Pub Crawling Again... #2

Okay next pub, and if anyone has been reading... well, fuck it, you don't know what pub this is... suffice to say it's a place that serves alcohol and that's that.

So fuck off.

Pub Crawling... again

Ah well, here I am in a pub again, on my own, again...

But, what the hell, lets report it, again.

A Brief Blogoshpere Interlude...

I haven't posted for a while due to shear lack of inspiration...

Recently I've been playing with Strata 3d, I used to use earlier versions a lot but circumstances prevented me from keeping current with it. However recently my work required me to revisit it in order to do some 3D, plus Photoshop CC's 3D features are pretty limited.

Here's something I knocked up whilst messing around...
