147 - Looking for a clear pass


Croydon Rangers 2 V Crusaders on yesterday - It was rainingheavily for most of the game and I found out three things:
1 - My camera and lense are waterproof.
2 - How to tie my monopod to my umbrella so I can keep myself and my equipment dry at the same time.
3 - Using 9 foucs points instead of 52, speeds up focussing and allows players to blur out in front and behind the player I am focused on.

142- Grasmere?

A bit dark at the bottom of the photo, but I do like the way the light comes through the overhead branches to light up a few leaves.

141- Alone on a hill

Old barn stands alone on a hill in Cumbria UK.

140 -wind power

It's unbelievable that I was able to walk right up to these windmills. Anywhere else in the world there would be restricted access.
