Snowed In

Canon & w800i

....I should be so lucky. Unlike egm (here and here for details), I took my pics as soon as I woke up and on my way to work. So, my pics are improptu ones....here goes alot of whiteness!!!


View from my window just before dawn(shadow of someone going to work)



A few minutes later....dawn breaks



A shot of the roof tops



This was taken with my cell phone.....the bustop where I get my bus.


The road close to the bustop, behind the shopping mall close to where I live.

A closer shot.....capturing the church building in the horizon and the morning traffic. The snow was the windy kind judging from the lamp post. You wouldn't want to be out in one of those.

ONE WITH NATURE

Phone, Purse and Pro

There is one thing I have come to appreciate......the wonders of nature.

I have come to love sunrises and sunsets and most of my pictures on this entry will consist just of that.......the sun!

Over time, I have photographed the sun, landscapes...anything to do with nature. Here are a few of those pictures, mostly taken whilst commuting by train before I moved. You have got to kill that time with abit of excitement, don't you think?

Enjoy!

Sunset...taken on my way back home on the train.

Autumn when the fields are cleared and rolled




The sunrise taken from the train.

While waiting for the bus....I captured this sunrise.

A zoom shot

Another morning whilst waiting for the bus. The light in the bustop stands out.

A cold winter morning. That is not entirely snow, but frost.

Another of my sunrises from the train

Waiting for the bus and I capture Spring in form of these beautiful flowers.

Zoom out with the sunrise in the horizon

A dull summer day.....still didn't stop me and my pal going out for a picnic. This the view of the lake close to where we were sitting.

This sunset was captured last summer after a Sevens tournament. You can even catch a glimpse of the 'H' bottom of the picture.

Went sightseeing in Windsor and these swans caught my attention


On the commute one rainy morning

This is one of the most difficult things to photograph without a proper lens or equipment.....the moon. I tried though!

One of my recent train pics....this was taken whilst travelling back to my old hood.

Winter trees....no leaves!!!

Campbell Park in Milton Keynes.....my lens had specks of dust. Hence the glare spots on the pic as the sun came out. Sorted it out temporarily.....

No more sun.....the building is the local theater

A shot of the park from a different angle

This is how the council keeps the grass short and manured.....let sheep graze in the park.

I like this pic.....gives a sense of country and city life in one shot. Xscape, the local theater on the horizon and the sheep grazing.

An upclose shot of the sheep and the Campbell Park houses on the horizon
