Title: Enjoy
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tube
Notes: There’s nothing quite like a long, cold, fizzy drink – chocked full of ice – to keep you cool on a hot summer’s day.
Title: Feeling Flakey
Location: Costa Coffee, Chelmsford
Camera: Canon Ixus 850IS compact
Notes: I had hoped to take something a little less mundane for Day 200, but sadly this was the most interesting part of my day! After a morning meeting, I enjoyed a quick coffee in town before coming home, having lunch and spending the rest of the day doing boring filing. I’m sure you didn’t want to see a picture of that.
Title: Classic Cream Tea
Location: Tiptree
Camera: Canon Ixus 850IS compact
Notes: I went with a friend to a networking event at Five Lakes Golf & Country Club today. On the way back, we passed the famous Tiptree Jam Factory and stopped for a cream tea. It just had to be done, didn’t it?
Title: Best Seat In The House
Location: At my parents’
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: Mum is an avid tennis fan, and she’s glued to the box during Wimbledon fortnight. I visited for lunch today, and there’s no prizes for guessing where she was camped out after we had eaten. The Men’s Final was quite a Marathon, and was, of course, accompanied by the obligatory strawberries. At least we didn’t have to don our macs during the interruptions for rain!
Title: Half Full Or Half Empty?
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: This week’s 366 theme is “a phrase or saying” – so here we have, The Glass Is Half Full/Half Empty. At the moment, I would have to say it’s half empty. I’ve been having a bad week generally, and just when you think it can’t get any worse… This evening, shortly after I’d taken this, I managed to trip over in the garden. So now I have two sore knees, a slightly fat lip, scratched glasses and a bruised ego. Wonderful. On a slightly more positive note, at least we’ve made it to Half Way today – day 183/366. Congrats to all who have come this far too.
Title: Pie & Mashed
Location: Ally Pally
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: Spent the day geeking out at Mashed and this was part of the catering provided for dinner – a surprisingly tastey steak and mushroom pie. With Mash, of course.
Title: Que Pasa Cappuccino
Location: Chelmsford
Camera: Canon Ixus 850IS compact
Notes: Had a couple of meetings in Chelmsford this morning, so spent some time drinking posh coffee. This one from Que Pasa was rather nicely branded.
