Wet Evening Walk in London

Back in November we visited London. We where out with our friends and as we returned to our hotel it started raining. These pictures where all taken with my compact Sony RX100mkiv, all hand held and some at quite high ISO. Good fun.

New Years Day Multiple Exposure

Been playing over Christmas with Multiple exposures and the so called Pep Ventosa Technique. This morning on our walk around the village I decided to take Multiple Exposures of the water tower near the house. A nice, crisp day with good lighting. The road was reasonably quiet, I did manage to include a car(s) in each Capture.

All images combined as layers in photoshop. I found with this set I enjoyed the results obtained by using Hard Mix and Pin Light Blending modes.

Ely New Years Eve 10Km Road Race 2018

My Son-in-Law Andy entered his 3rd 10K race today in Ely. Another Son-in-law Jon was the Race Referee and Daughter Zoe was a Marshall. So I decided to go along and watch, and take photos of course.

The annual Ely New Years Eve 10K Road Race is held in Little Downham. 616 men and women took part.

You can see the results here 

The race started at 11:00. Right from the start Number 162 Chris Darling from Cambridge and Coleridge AC took the lead and after 31mins 45sec he won.

First Girl was Daisy Glover from Framingham Flyers in 36 mins 53sec in position 15

Andy (number 684)  who had a target of sub 50mins achieved  49mins 54sec and came in at position 252. WELL DONE ANDY, I am proud of you.

Jon did an excellent job of Refereeing apart from the fact he kept shouting in my ear at the finish for the runners to keep moving :)

Chris Darling Wins the Race

Daisy Glover - First Girl over the line.
