Moods
Light, sky, clouds, dark, strange colours, contrast, odd composition.
It must mean mood. Not mean mood. Just the meaning of mood, in a picture. Not the, becoming mean of a mood. Ok, just moody. (I was running at the time I snapped this, so t’was not I who was in the mood.)
‘In the mood’ can be good though, a Miles Davis ‘Kind of Blue.’
iPhone ever ready
The iPhone is a fun note taker. As much for it’s ability to process pictures in camera as for it’s image quality, which is fine as a note taker.
Photographers, especially neophytes, crave symmetry. Symmetry in gear, composition, exposure. Indeed sometimes old dogs have to break the ‘mould’ (sic) and learn from the happy mistakes of the young.
This picture was processed through the Best Picture app and then put through the Photoshop app, Photoshop has extended it’s library of frames and 99.99% are crap. In fact the one frame I loved and would actually pay for is gone. That’s the big problem with these apps. A lack of consistency.
Consistency is one of those things all snappers should crave.
Here we go here we go here we go…
Watched the match with Croatia tonight, never saw so many upset fans in all my time following the irish soccer team. Oh well… Idon’t normally stick in a newspaper pic, but irish fans are so happy and positive, my heart goes out to them tonight…

Blink and it’s gone
So much happens, we live in space. Even if we are unaware. Time is fleeting. Time is all we have.
