A while back I read about an American sheriff in some small town somewhere and he bought all his squad shovels for use during the upcoming zombie apocalypse. I don't what he intended they do with them. Maybe he just spotted a good deal and couldn't resist :D
 
Dam I didn't think of zombies I'd better get the shotgun out ! A quick tip you can tell a zombie by the fact they have there face glued to a phone :):):):)

O.k this morning I had a freak accident involving a mug of tea and a plate ! This resulted in my carpet (luckily I'm having wooden flooring fitted tomorrow) covered in blood and my foot leaking the red fluid every where I went. This put paid to my next job of walking the dogs so I had to think of another activity ,my plan after some thought was to include guns, Beer,Mrs Badger and cameras, What could go wrong ! Please note no beer was actually wasted, it had been drained by my lad before hand and topped up with water.

Lesson learned was I should have used a smaller aperture to get more depth of field and I could have got in a little closer but at the time I didn't know if the can was going to jump out of frame. Sony A6000 and an old 135mm Pentacon manual lens.
 
Hi, lots of things happened today (SONY A7R2 - LEITZ Elmar 4/180) ... First, the farmer gave me a kilo gourmet cherries like these :
