    Not at all unhappy… (365: 69) — I might look it, but I’m Just bloody tired. Copyright © 2007 Gary Allman, all rights reserved.

    I might look it, but I’m Just bloody tired. Six am, and the end of the week. Around four weeks of four to six hours’ sleep a night leaves one like this in the morning.

    It is nearly half past eleven and I need to take and choose my picture. No time for anything fancy, just another shot taken at my desk.

    And just to prove the struggle is real, here are a few of the pictures I took to try and get something half-decent.

    Resting (365: 67). I’ve had a hectic few weeks. Today saw one major item out of the way. Now just two more to go, and then I’ll have some more time. Copyright © 2007 Gary Allman, all rights reserved.

    There’s a reason why this did not appear as my 365 Days project picture. I’d taken the day off of work to attend an interview, and I knew that people at work were following my project. I didn’t want to give anything away. These pictures only surfaced when I was going back through all my old unpublished photographs.

    Sunbathing — The first sunny day for ages. So, I am unashamedly enjoying it. Copyright © 2007 Gary Allman, all rights reserved.

    The garden has an eight-foot high fence to stop the neighbours from peeking and, worse, complaining. The only one we can’t block is our next-door neighbour, whose only comment has been, ‘I know you like your sunbathing.’

    I fear these will not make it. They aren’t moving much and are well behind their siblings in terms of development.

    There is no sign of the ones that have hatched, but they’ve got a big pond to hide in.

  • Burned Out (365: 61)

    Burned Out — I’ve taken a day off to recharge. It is a shame the picture, like me, is a tad burned out despite my best efforts to correct it. Copyright © 2007 Gary Allman, all rights reserved.

    Note: This was not the picture I originally posted on Day 61. But that’s because somehow, I originally posted an earlier picture, and I’ve only just realized. This is the correct picture for Day 61.

    What a total mess-up of a picture! I forgot to set up a fill-in light, so there are harsh shadows around my face. I haven’t the time or inclination to set it up and take it again; anyway, I’ve eaten a lot of it 🙂

    D’oh! Picture spoilt for 2 minutes of effort.
