Double-Decker

It took six months for me to see one of the older nicer looker double-decker buses.  There are tons of the new highly decorated annoyingly loud ones, but those are... well...annoying and loud.

Taking a trip down memory lane.  On memory lane.

With A Little Less Than Two Weeks To Go...

Today my wife reminded me of the fact that the main building at her school, Queen's University Belfast, is beautiful.  It definitely is.  I took a photograph of it awhile ago...indeed I did, but have not used it to its full potential (and I have less than two weeks to go on this 365 day photo thing).  Thus, I decided to see what I could come up with using my 50mm...

Hand-carved oak.  I'm totally guessing on that, but wouldn't be surprised.  Go through it and you'll be greeted by a faun.  The faun part isn't a guess...purely factual.

Jupiter, Bicycles and Greenhouses

Last night, my wife's university gave the surrounding community a chance to view Jupiter with some high-tech telescopes.  Though the three second individual viewing time may not have been worth the wait, it provided me with a decent enough photograph.  Here is a man checking out his telescope..making sure it is in working order and fine-focusing it.


While waiting for my turn at one of the telescopes, I noticed a bright light shining on a bicycle nearby...



Today I was wandering around the outside of a locked-up greenhouse.  An old greenhouse.  Here are some shots from it...
