Thanks 
Knackered but happy!
I registered as soon as they announced the date so got in first... that's probably all it is. I am also one of about 8 females in an otherwise male office of around 100..that might have something to do with it I also have great, supportive friends

Been away from the PC for a few days, had a rotten week.
At around midnight Friday night on our way up to bed, my boyfriend went to lock the door, slipped, broke a panel in our 50's feature porch door with his elbow and then fell through it, severing the tendons in his wrist and damaging his nerves. Knew things were bad when I saw the blood but realised how bad when he couldn't move his hand at all. Luckily I am a first aider and despite panicking like I thought I would, I was able to patch him up and get him to the hospital quickly.
So we spent most of Friday night here:

The next day went very slowly as we waited for 'emergency' surgery. 72 hours later on Monday night, a whole catalogue of neglectful errors later, he went in for his op. I saw lots of this over those 3 days.
200609 : Machine Tea
The operation was successful and 5 days later he's got some feeling back in his fingers although he still can't move them yet. He's been for a follow up and has to go back next week so he can have some idea how well it's healing. I will catch up over the next few days, just been a mental week!

240609 : Crown Princess visiting Liverpool. Snapped on my iphone
250609 : She left a bit of oil behind in the Mersey!

Carrying on with the catchup!
Little factoid for you - I have no idea why but I'm terrified of these things! I think it's because you never see them go up - they just appear and they seem menacing. Maybe they're part of an alien plot to take over the world

From the film 'The Last Mimzy' (watch it if you haven't - kids will love it!). My mum & I both have a Mimzy that speaks if you press her foot! She lives in my front room on the top shelf

If any of you read the Liverpool Echo you might have seen this story about a trapped baby gosling. My friend and I went for a walk along the waterfront outside our office and saw the little guy trapped at lunchtime - He'd fallen 30ft or so and couldn't get himself out so we rang the RSPCA - they sent the Fire Brigade came out to rescue it! They took him off to the RSPCA to be fixed before returning him to his mum. Unfortunately when i went to check on the baby goose at around 5pm and see if anyone had come for it, I saw one of the other goslings attacked and killed by a swan
Before the Fire Brigade arrived, I snapped one of Mummy goose and the injured gosling's siblings. The little trapped one had fallen down over the drop to the left hand side of the photo.

Mobile shot of a warship at dusk at the Princes Dock landing stage

Remember Sam on top of the doorframe? This is his equally wacky brother, Jake. He's interested in everything you are doing, a really lovely little cat.
030709 : Jake
This was a covered walkway with a gravelled floor - I thought it would make an interesting picture - it certainly made an interesting mess on my clothes when I stood up covered in gravel dust from head to toe!
040709 : Walkway
This year we seem to be getting a proper summer. By the time I come home from work the heat of the sun has gone off the garden and it's cool enough to sit and relax without having to cover up in suntan lotion until dusk falls.

Well thanks for waiting - The patient is much better now and is thankfully on the mend. So, I've finally gotten around to sorting out some photographs for this ruddy 365! Whose idea was this anyway?
Because we've recently bought a new (to us) mac mini, I'm now able to edit much more than I could on the web-book so I'm planning on learning a lot more about photoshop and lightroom and all the different things I can do with it. So watch this space!
060709 : Canal drama!
It's never short of drama around where I work. Unfortunately, it's not always good. This is the new canal link down the side of the Liver Buildings. The orange buoys were all in a straight guiding line until this guy hit them and got them wrapped around his rudder - eventually meaning that he had to cut through them to get free. It wasn't easy, as you can see, his canal boat almost hit the wall on the opposite side to where he should be!

Now when we moved all the photos over to the new mac, I realised when it was I fell in love with photography again. It was on our regular trip to San Francisco/Las Vegas to stay with my family a few years ago. Looking through the photos I saw the ones that really stirred my interest again and thought I'd post a few of them, to show what my inspiration was.
The first was this street sign in in Monterey, California.

This was another. It was taken with a little point and shoot. The fountains at the Bellagio are incredible and I think it was when I took this that I started asking questions about what I could do with better equipment and an improved knowledge of how to take good photos.

Right!! Finally done some catching up - what with injuries and weddings and cats getting their ears bitten off (don't ask!) it's taken me a while to get up to speed - but I think I'm there. I'll get the pics posted up over the next few days to bring me up to date, then it's back to one a day (or 3 on a Monday ).
Thanks for being patient, I hope you're still enjoying the photos.
180709 : Yum or Yuck?
I love Revels - it is in fact my family name, (Revill), but I can't stand the coffee ones. ♥ the orange ones though and the ones that are strangely similar to minstrels, but not quite.
