Marc, I'm really enjoying this thread, with some great images so far, and a good insight into your day to day life and thoughts.
Thanks for taking the time to post this up
Thanks Del. Actually they are pretty much all digital, the steam train is from a visit to a steam railway museum last year. I'm rather hoping next year's cover will be a little more contemporary (I'll see if I can arrange a little input there! )
Steam trains exist and move today at plenty of preserved lines so therefore can be said to be contemporary,you could have a photo of Concorde much more modern but because it now sits dead in a museum it could be said to be less contemporary
Great last couple of pics Marc and the words that came with them.
For some reason all photography clubs are obsessed with steam trains. I've lost count of the times I've heard members, when shown a steam train photo, come out with preposterous remarks along the lines of "I say old chap, is that the Flying Haggis running on the Barfton to Fartwell line? I believe that's a 3 foot guage using a Preston Mortley type three engine with a modified bugger nut on the rear axel"
Those of us who like photographing preserved steam are not all of the Flying Haggis brigade and from personal experience Camera Clubs have an obsession with Female models and nudes but maybe that's just the camera clubs I went to
I speak from personal experience too. My club (and those nearby) is obsessed with steam trains. Others are obsessed with naked women.

I think I'm in the wrong club.
Marc - great thread and updates. Didn't know anything about this when I met you in London.
Wow, I've only just started looking through all of these properly but this really stands out. Great pictures and I love the stories behind them. Amazing work! I'll be happy to watch how this goes for as long as you keep it up! Good luck!
The first thing I'm going to do when I move out, is get a cat. Dad hates them
Great photo's so far Marc looking forward to seeing the rest.
Great post Marc, pets have been a big part of my life for 20 years, more a dog person though I dont mind cats, infact I like most animals but I find dogs more fun, but they can be hard work and usually want a lot more attention than cats.

Great shot Fabs.
I know what you mean about pets. After being without a dog since moving out of home many moons ago I find myself only seven weeks away from a new puppy. I can't wait, dogs and I assume cats are so tuned into your body language and demenour and just know when you need a bit of love.
I know what you mean, I think this the first time since leaving home at 18 that I have been without a cat and its very strange. We have the two terrible terriers to make up for it mind, and the house really does feel empty when they aren't around, even if they have only gone for a walk with bratney
thats a gorgeous cat, it reminds me of my old one . I have 2 now thomas and tiger (you will prob end up with photos sooner or later in my 365 ) tiger only has 3 legs though
I'll be honest I don't know much about MS but I am led to believe that canabis is supposed to be very good for it, perhaps we can get a shot of that in the 365 I am watching
