    Some rubbish pictures from a walk along the Thames called for some extreme Photoshopping!

  • Worthing & Steyning, Sussex

    Friday, Aug 12, 2016

    Some astonishing sea colours on our visit to Worthing on the South Coast. I recall seeing colours like this when we visited Lake Louise in Canada.

    Not far from Worthing is the stunningly attractive and charming town of Steyning. The two pictures below give just a small indication of why it’s worth a visit. There is also a very pleasant high street with many small, independent shops and cafés.

  • Lawyer abandons career to become artist

    Wednesday, Aug 10, 2016

    CapturePeople come to create visually stunning pieces of artwork naturally, others take different paths to realise their dreams.

    Ex lawyer and now illustrative artist Lucy Haque talks about the ideas behind her work and how she came about her practice.

  • Tate Modern – new extension

    Monday, Aug 8, 2016

    On my first visit to the Tate Modern’s new extension I wasn’t too taken by the works of art but the view from the viewing gallery on the top floor makes it well worth visiting.

  • Not quite Olympic table tennis

    Saturday, Aug 6, 2016

    After the second night of competition, the old guy leads the young pretender 2-0 (4-2 and 4-2). Windy conditions meant it was a lot easier to play into the wind than with the wind behind!

    Sunday update! On the 3rd night the young pretender dealt better with the blustery wind and won 4-2. Overall, 2-1 to the old guy.

    Monday update! On the 4th and final night, in blustery conditions and poor light, the old guy outfoxed his son 4-1. Final score, 3-1 to the old guy!

    Charity shops selling quality paperbacks for a pound each. That’s too cheap, but thanks anyway!
