Hampshire

Walking across the campus — I’m halfway through a 15-minute walk between meetings at work, and it is too cold to spend time taking fancy photographs. And I’m wearing a silly hat to keep warm.

6AM and only just awake (365: 17) — This picture was taken as part of a 365 days of me mini challenge to take a picture of yourself straight after waking up. Frightening isn’t it?! 2

Pensive. It’s taking a fair bit of digging to discover why I have this picture. It turned out that I’d planned a 365 days picture — but it went wrong. This was my ‘safety shot.’

Me And My Friend (365: 16) — I had a disastrous evening, not much time and neither of my pre-planned 365 days photographs had worked. In fact, I was feeling quite depressed, and time was running on, when the idea for this shot came to me.

Split Personality — The three most obvious sides of myself: 1. At work. 2. Out socially, 3. Home.

A walk on the Sea Front (365: 15) — I thought it would make a change to take a photograph outside. I’m still too self-conscious to be bold and obvious when doing self-portraits, which is one excuse for the up the nose angle. 3

Running Repairs in the Garden — After weeks of high winds the back garden fence was in need of some TLC. A few screws did the job. It is not easy standing on a ladder holding a drill and taking a picture at the same time.

Running Repairs (365: 14) — This is what happens when you leave the kids in charge of the house while you go away for New Year. 3

Double trouble (365: 13) – My less serious alter ego strikes a blow for more fun in my pictures.

Waiting (365:12) – While waiting for my friends to arrive for our monthly curry evening, I fit in a quick drink and a 365 Days picture.

Bombay Bay — Monthly Curry Night.

At My Desk (365:11) – Here I am, all ready to continue with my day’s work once I’ve got this photograph taken.

Favourite Colour: Burgundy – If I have to have a favourite colour, then I guess this is currently it. It’s certainly the colour of my fountain pen, and I’ve also used it as an accent colour on a couple of walls in the living room.

Comfort (365:10) – There are times when we all need some comfort…

Hands (365: 9).

Stretch. I took this for the Week 11 project for the “What do you want” group. Then I re-read the brief and I wasn’t sure if it met the requirements.

Reading in the garden.

January In The Garden (365: 8) – 14 January and warm enough to sit in the garden. 4

Late Night Movie (365: 7) – It was actually three movies, one bottle of wine and the end of the whiskey. 2

Doubly Glazed (365: 6) — Desperate shot this one. I was waiting for my lift to work and saw my distorted reflection.

Breakfast (365: 5) – 06:30, and breakfast – It took me two days to get this one

You Hoo! (365: 4) – Future Gary says: A truly awful picture that might have been improved by clean glasses and more depth of field.

Morning Shower (365: 3) – The camera only has a 10-second self-timer, so I had to take a load of test shots the day before so that I could get the shot right. I have to get to work, so time is tight.

Trim (365: 2) – A once a week task to stop my beard becoming unruly.
