It’s Jazz’s idea. Pick those blooms, find that vase, compose that floral decoration, snap that pic, post it here.
Simples, huh?

May 2015 Photography Competition
I think we have covered just about every theme over the last few years so this month’s challenge is sites, or sights: holidays, day trips or local, ancient or modern!
This is a very old castle site – architect William the Conqueror:
Entries by 21st May please!
March Picture Challenge – FOOD.
It was going to be Spring but there is no sign of that around here, not much food for the wildlife either after a long hard Winter. Even a dead catfish washed up by the ice eater looks pretty good to the hungry.
But approach with caution, it could be a trick…
Closing March 31, 2015 somewhere about 36 N 75 W.
The Wattage Two Day Cure for all Ailments
It’s true, doesn’t matter if it is lumbago, rheumatism, arthritis, sciatica or a bout of the gout this is guaranteed to cure the lot in two days.
Firewood, cut it, split it, stack it on the woodpile.
There are three trees worth here, a Hickory, an Oak and a Maple, all hardwoods, probably totaling about three cords when cut and stacked, seasoned it should weigh about six tons, wet as it is it probably weighs twice that. The big stuff with the dark heartwood is the hickory. Bitternut is the variety that grows around here and it is very heavy wood, and one of the best in terms of heat content for firewood.

Gripping.
Cold here today, -20 C at 7am when I went to breakfast. Not often we get that kind of cold and it sounds like it might be around for a while. Creek is frozen right to the middle and the only open water is where the ice eater is working around the pilings.
December 2014 photo results
Sea and / or Sky
What a wonderful array of entries we had this month, first and foremost I’d like to thank all contributors for their efforts. There’s nothing worse than being a judge and running a fun challenge to receive a meagre 2 or 3 entries from the usual suspects.
As mentioned elsewhere, I had nothing to do with the actual judging, a panel viewed the submissions over a few drinks yesterday at The King’s Arms (home of the E.P. rugby supporters club.)
And here is their verdict …….
Sea, Sky & Cops
Only one day left to get an entry into this months piccie comp! There’s some super entries, go take a look.
(I nicked this pic from a Cape Town daily read, it shows some of Cape Town’s fattest (oops, I mean finest) strolling along the Seapoint waterfront.)
Sea, Sky & Boats
I was at the Port Elizabeth Deep Sea Angling Club (PEDSAC) yesterday, how’s this for a view?
December Photo Competition (revisited)
Seas & Skies
A picture which includes either the sea or sky is what’s required this month, there, that can’t be too difficult can it?
The winner will be announced once I’ve recovered from seeing in 2015, that should be some time in the afternoon of the 1st of January 2015!
Maritime Picture for the Weekend
Nice? I thought so, not my picture, taken by the organizer of the “Downrigging Weekend” in Chestertown, Maryland, an annual event for wooden boats and tall ships. I like the remains of the morning mist drifting off to the right. Continue reading “Maritime Picture for the Weekend”
