I have not been out much this week so I have not much to show you, anyway I was messing about at home with the camera using different lenses and came up with one or two I like.

No.1 The moon through a long lens
No.2 A penny through a macro lens.
No.3 The Queens lips from a twenty pound note.
No.4 A Frenchman's breakfast.
No.5 View through the bottom of a half full pint glass.
No.6 View of a pretty lady through the same glass. Lets call her Stella.
No.6 View of a spider through the same glass.

All straight from the card, no editing apart from cropping.

Thanks Turtle.

The spider was a plastic one, it was one of many my cleaner put in my bed when she made it. I pulled the sheets back about ten thirty to go to bed and nearly jumped out of my skin.

What are you doing with a half full glass?

Slowly turning it into an empty one so I can start again with a full one.

Nice having a cleaner with a sense of humour! But just the thought of spiders in the bed makes me go all funny...

The story is that I knew she was frightened of spiders so I thought I would play a trick on her.
I took a photo of a long legged insect thing and printed it on sticky back paper and put it on the underside of the toilet lid. When she lifted the lid she ran screaming out of the bathroom.
The spiders she put in my bed were all attached to a very fine web so when I moved the first one the rest started to move as well.
I had checked under my pillows before she left because I knew she was up to something but didn't look right down under the sheets.
We have called a truce now, for the time being.
It's worth the money I pay them to have company and a bit of fun for an hour twice a week.

Just shows you don't really need to go out to get some interesting photos - I particulary like the penny - has great texture. Love the story of the spider. Hope it didn't make you jump too much Russell -though to be honest you deserved it!:p

You've had some mileage out of those sunflowers...love the autumn colours in number 2 -really makes the town center look bright.

Just a thought, but would linking to somewhere like photo bucket save server space?

Sorry Mick my post was meant to be tongue in cheek and I'm sure Dave wasn't meaning to take advantage.
