A New Arrival
Our Duckling has decided to join us in the big wide world, so far it’s been a lot of fun.
I’m afraid we are planning on keeping most pictures of her restirted to only Friends and Family on Flickr. If you are one of our friends or family and have an Flickr/Yahoo account please do feel free to add both of us (my wife’s account is mrs_purpleduck) as a contact and let us know off Flickr that you would like access to the other photos.
Photo Geek stuff: Photo taken with Canon 100mm Macro lens with on-axis (below lens) off camera flash.
Sea Eagle
Taken on a recent trip to Edinburgh Zoo, I hear they are getting some wolfs again. So another trip will be required very soon.

Musselburgh Sunrise
Fisherrow Harbour Star Trails
I took my first Star Trails this evening, not too bad for my first attempt. There’s other photos of Fisherrow Harbour and Musselburgh at night in this set on Flickr.
DIY Camera customisation
In last weeks Amateur Photographer (14th March 2009) there was a article on DIY flash customisation. There was instructions on how to build a simple flash grid; however the really hard part was finding black straws. After a quick trip to Ikea, I had some straws which were only half black.
This is the test photo, there’s an version taken without the flash grid the jump.
River Esk Sluice Gate Detail
A couple of months ago I took a wander along the bank of the River Esk, and gave the compact camera a spin. Don’t think I’m getting the best photos out of it yet, more practice is needed. However I do really like this one.
