For some reason, Miah’s Kitchen had a limo. Bryce wanted a picture next to it, but I couldn’t fit the whole car in lol.

Leeds Celtics

Friday, December 21st, 2012 | Distractions, Photos

Last weekend, myself and George headed up to Weetwood to watch the Leeds Celtics american football team play.

It was dry, but never the less very cold and due to what we suspect was the ambulance getting lost, the game didn’t kick off until an hour after it’s scheduled time – a risky move when you have so little day light these days.

By this point, we were too cold to watch the whole manage, but in the first half Leeds Celtics scored two touchdowns, both with two point conversions, against the Northumbria Mustangs.

Leeds City Museum

We went to Leeds City Museum to see the Stolen, Saved, Smuggled? exhibit. It was pretty disappointing to be honest.

Elina made me a pig. I’ve decided to name it Muhammad.

It’s interesting how there is a gradual change between the Gay Quarter where I live, and the Catholic cathedral.

More photos of me shamelessly abusing selective focus.

Turns out, it’s reasonably easy to remove windows, in Photoshop.

50mm lens

Wednesday, November 7th, 2012 | Photos

I used my birthday gift vouchers to buy a new 50mm f/1.4 lens for my camera. It’s excellent for doing very shallow depth of field, although, on reviewing the photographs, I’ve realised I went far too far with the shallow depth – sometimes it was narrower, even than the object I was actually trying to photograph! Looking forward to playing around with this lens a lot more.

Donington Park

Sunday, November 4th, 2012 | Photos, Public Speaking

The Division E competition took place at Donington Park racing circuit, which wasn’t a very good venue as it was difficult to find (we got sent to the wrong part of the circuit) and very cold inside their buildings slash sheds, but on the plus side we did get to look round the Formula One museum section.
