Cast adrift
The wandering photographer has been a bit quiet recently he is cast adrift in the world... I wonder where! Lorraine, See, I'm not a photojournalist on assignment, just a humble amateur bobbing around the warm seas for a day.Thursday 10 January 2008

Wandering photographer gets plastered
Weather roller-coaster... this morning we woke up to sunshine, snow and blocked roads. What a photo scoop for the wandering photographer, a snow plough hurtling snow towards him at high speed. Remind me to stand further back and with a longer lens next time!Sunday 6 January 2008
Auchencorth Moss
The sun sets for the wandering photographer over the dark cold moor. Brrrr!Irony set in, I spent the afternoon trying to get images without electricity cables and pylons, here I went to one of my favourite spots to put them in the picture.
Near Biggar
Sailing round the Borders, everywhere I looked there were electricity lines spoiling the view. This is about the best I could do. On the first rise is a Christmas tree plantation... see the lucky survivors, to live for another year!
Auchencorth Moss
Yawn, yawn, I was up at dawn! Cold, cold wind blowing...The observent blog watcher will notice the snow has completely gone!

Anchor plates
The regular visitor will be amazed to hear than only one image was taken today. A series of domestic harrassments (yawn) and heavy rain all day conspired against the wandering photographer exercising his shutter finger. However, he did get this beauty - tie rods and anchor plates under a bridge. 1. it wasn't raining under the bridge and 2. the wandering photographer remembers from an early age being fascinated by the crumbling buildings and bridges of Stockton, his home town, being held up with such beauties.

Evening B&W tat
This is a glorious sunset. Interesting skyline... Interesting omen in the clouds....Auchencorth Moss
The light was getting low, the snow blew in spin-drifts from the cold North.... the wandering photographer has frozen digits.... I'm off home :-)

Robin in the snow
After this picture of the intrepid Robin, all the birds suddenly had better things to do than visit the bird table - I have this effect...!Robin in the snow
After the morning freeze on the moor it has been snowing all morning. For just a brief while the snow stopped and the sun broke through. I nabbed this birdie coming for a feed.Auchencorth Moss
One of the few trees on the moor, windswept and a great survivor. I photograph this tree through the seasons

Fidra Island
Just tatting again... B&W is now a hell of a lot easier than messing around in the darkroom I did as a kid!
