25 May 2007: Futuristic

Didn’t have any ideas about this one. Well, I did figure there were a couple of ways I could go, one of which was to find something which would have been considered futuristic at the point in the past when it was created. The other was the normal all shiny glass and steel kind of thing. I ended up with something a bit more abstract, but which I think still fits the definition.

18 May 2007: Large

OK, I didn’t submit anything last week. I did come up with an idea, but I never actually got round to taking the picture. Oh well.
This week, something large.

Possible opportunity

A long time ago, when we were both still living at home, Duncan used to drive me home ‘the long way round’. This could sometimes be a very long way. Anyway, occasionally we would leave early, and take a flask of tea and some sandwiches (I know, how romantic…) and park somewhere, usually in the rain. OK, it wasn’t quite midnight, and not quite a picnic, but that’s the inspiration for this goal.
This year, we’re going to Orkney. At midsummer. When it stays fairly light all night, for at least one night. If the weather’s good, this might be a good opportunity. And if it’s wet, well, there’s always a flask of tea and some sandwiches, parked in the car somewhere.

11 May 2007: Amber

Amber. The colour of a traffic light changing from green to red. A semi-precious stone, which is basically fossilised tree resin. Also a girl’s name, but I don’t know anyone called Amber :)

4 May 2007: Smoke

Well, for various reasons I didn’t get my pictures from last week posted in time. I may put one up on Flickr anyway.
This week, smoke. Lots of possibilities there. Won’t be the classic cigarette smoke because, well, it may look good in pictures but it’s horrible. So anything from chimney smoke to the smoke from a snuffed-out candle.
