30/10/2010 - Day 112

I picked up my camera for the first time in two weeks today.  Normally you can't keep it out of my hands, but it just hasn't felt right since the time I received the call to say my Grandad had been rushed into hospital.  The only feeling I have at the moment is overwhelming sadness at my loss of a man that played such a huge part in my life, but I'm hoping, in time, that will fade, and my passion for life and photography will both return.  

This image is of the tree in my neighbours garden.  Its a tree I usually don't like as it is far to big and close to the house, and takes so much of our light, but this morning, with the beautiful blue sky and the sun shining on the golden leaves, I saw its beauty for the first time.

Alfie rocking out with his 'electric' guitar!

15/10/2010 - Day 110

The old 'spread the beans around the plate and say I'm finished' trick here, perfected by Alfie!

14/10/2010 - Day 109

This was taken the split second before Alfie strangled Jack, therefore Jack pushed Alfie off, Alfie cries and ends it by having a temper, leading to him having an early night.......and you thought it was a photo of happy families didn't you......?!?!

13/10/2010 - Day 108

Alf has his Halloween costume all ready!

12/10/2010 - Day 107

This is a selection of images for my first college assignment, due in next Tuesday.  Images printed, now for all the writing!

Getting his daily dose of Club Penguin....

10/10/2010 - Day 105

This is the final load.  I've done 12 loads this weekend.  Time for the teenagers to start pulling their weight me thinks!

09/10/2010 - Day 104

The decorating is done and the wall art is back up again.  Its a slow job, but we're getting there!

08/10/2010 - Day 103

The desk has arrived.  No more working at the kitchen table for Rich or me.....unless we both need to be working at the same time of course! 

07/10/2010 - Day 102

A rare day at the moment, when I get to collect the Alfster from school, and we get time to do something together.  So we took a walk to the park, and stopped in at the cake shop!

06/10/2010 - Day 101

Sorry all you arachnophobes out there but here is another of our new garden residents!

"take a photo of my sore throat Mum so I can see it"

04/10/2010 - Day 99

What more is there to say.....?

03/10/2010 - Day 98

Not the most attractive of highlights for Mr B.  Dulux Brilliant White looks far better on our woodwork than in his hair!

02/10/2010 - Day 97

We went to Newcastle so that Daisy could look round the University.  While Daisy and Rich listened to the talk about Psychology, I took Alfie to the park.  We found this toadstool, but alas, no fairies or gnomes - just a rat running around in the grass!  I wasn't as keen on the park after that!

01/10/10 - Day 96

Another Friday, another photoshoot!  I dragged poor Sabrina out in the cold and rain, plonked her under some arches, and got her to play her guitar.  She did exactly as I asked, and in good grace!  Note to self, must find her a more glamorous setting next time!  Here is one of the digital images I took, once I had finished up the film.
