Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
Well done to all those who competing in and completed the Llyn Vyrnwy Half Marathon yesterday. Hope you all managed the times you were aiming for and more importantly enjoyed yourselves. My photos are now online ready for all to see: Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon Photos 2009 Here are a few as a taster, but...
I think this is the best day weather-wise that we’ve had all year. Perfect blue skies, 19ºC and a very gentle breeze. The sea is dead calm and there are very few people on the beach. Lovely. There are some tasty looking mushrooms in the dunes too, I wonder if they are edible? I really...
I got up early this morning and whilst messing around with my camera before my little photo assignment at the Lake Vyrnwy Half Marathon tomorrow I snapped this photo. Flowers make such good subjects, amazing colours, lovely textures and (as long as it isn’t windy) they don’t move either. Looks as though it should be...
It was lovely to see so many butterflies feasting on the sedum in the garden last night… And the sedum is covered in them again this morning. Let me know if I’ve got any identifications wrong.Amazon.co.uk Widgets
Regular readers will know from a previous post that I set my self a little photo assignment a couple of weekends ago to photograph the Snowdonia Enduro Mountain Bike Event.

Following my recent flu and health problems, I’m not quite up to any Mountain Bike racing at the moment, but I’ve been enjoying my photography and quite fancy having a go at taking photos of a MTB event sometime soon. I guess now is the perfect opportunity as I can’t ride myself so I could...
I haven’t been out of the house for a week so as it was such a lovely day I just had to go for a nice easy walk in the dunes. I had Morgan with me so it was more of a tiny little stroll really, but I still managed to take a few photos....
The weather has been a little mad lately. Yesterday we had monsoon conditions in the morning with around 12mm of rain in an hour or so, but by the afternoon it was glorious sunshine and I even fell asleep in the hammock out in the garden! Perfect weather for the garden to grow though, although...
