10th June:

It's a Friday park photo again! :) I liked the reflection of the sky and clouds in the little pond (you can also see the big pond in the background). It was even clearer a few seconds before I took this, but then a duck swam through it (couldn't they see I was there with my camera!?).

9th June:

We were up in the west end yesterday evening, a bit early and had a few minutes to kill so we had a quick wander around the Kibble Palace. It's such a cool building, and a dream for the photographer!

On the way home we were almost at the station when HD suggested we go to the Arches (a venue near the station) as he had read in the Metro that there was a gig on by Eliza Carthy. So we did, we ate there first (I'm still full, and still a bit bewildered about the kedgeree risotto which apparently has fish in it at lunchtime but not in the evening menu - whatever, it didn't have fish and it was delicious), and then went to the gig in the basement. Upstairs was another gig, by a band called Ladytron, who were very loud, but Eliza folked out in style and it was a fantastic gig. Which is more than can be said for my photos! I've posted this link up on facebook already, but anyway for the uninitiated here is Eliza doing what she does best: Mr Magnifico.
