A shot of Bournemouth town centre after dark.  The large balloon is the Bournemouth Eye, which is a helium balloon that can carry up to 30 passengers and despite having lived locally all of my life I have never actually been on it. Taken in Bournemouth, Dorset, UK.

Sandbanks sunshine

January 3, 2012

First off Happy New Year to you, I hope 2012 brings lots of happiness and good times!

I was sat in the passenger seat of my car as we drove home from Sandbanks yesterday evening, wistfully daydreaming of Christmas and New Year while enjoying the view of the sun setting over Poole Harbour.  All of a sudden I had the urge to grab my camera from my bag and snap a couple of shots while the car was in motion.  I didn’t have much time to think, so I just grabbed a couple of quick shots while passing between parked cars.  Looking at the photos in the evening I have to say I kind of like the lens flare (I realise some people absolutely deplore lens flare, but that’s not the case for me).

This is the first bit of sunshine I have seen in 2012.. fingers crossed there will be plenty more to come.

Classic Cars on the Prom in Bournemouth

January 1, 2012

Today was Classic Cars on the Prom in Bournemouth, Dorset, UK.  Shortly after I arrived it started to rain cats and dogs so I didn’t hang around for very long unfortunately.  There were lots of lovely old cars so I maged to get a couple of shots despite the dreary weather.

Classic cars have such character, they are just screaming out to be photographed.
