My favourite photos of 2014

We love to travel, especially on safari & these are my favourite photos of 2014. The first photo was a walking safari & we got far too close to this huge bull elephant. The guide in the photo is an indication of how close we were! The second is a young leopard who didn't want her photo taken. The Gorillas were quite difficult to photograph because of the dense jungle & the very steep incline so I am happy with the results. The last photo is of a fish eagle about to catch dinner.

Four Favourites from 2014

I was astonished to find I had over 2600 images from this year! Even allowing for the fact that I sometimes store both RAW and JPEG copies I really don't remember pressing the shutter button anything like 1300 times. It was quite painful choosing these, and I don't think they work together as a set, but they are:Dawn, Radcliffe Camera, Oxford. I couldn't sleep. My garden. I was supposed to be taking out the bins I think, then I saw the low winter sunlight hitting these raindrops and I ran for my camera instead. Linton Zoo. I just found something absorbing in this little hand (well, foot), so similar to our own. Portugal, ancient fortified town. If you turned in the opposite direction you could throw stones into Spain (if that was your sort of thing).

Nuala's Three Pictures

Three pictures chosen from the last couple of years: The Portuguese seem to love tea as much as the British - I have not had such a good cup of tea in a long time. I particularly liked this photo because it is (inadvertently) a portrait of my rather bored teenage son. Bourn Brook late autumn 2012 - the inevitable photograph of Toft. I had to stop myself putting three photographs of Toft in! Aldeburgh summer 2013. I do not know who sits in this chair. This sums up Aldeburgh for me, personally.

First full meeting

The first full meeting of TPG took place last night - and a few of the people there bought along photos to share based on the theme "on the move". The next meeting is scheduled for Friday 24th January at 20:00, and the theme for photos is "Low Light". Please bring along up to 12 images to share with the meeting. We are planning to assist the Toft Historical Society exhibition in March 2014 with photos from the village, and we plan to hold our own exhibition in September. Everyone is welcome to come along - there is currently no charge for membership, and the Social Club bar is open if you fancy a drink. Here's one of the "on the move" shots from last night.
