Title: A … Is For Anticipation
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tube
Notes: The Birthday Fairies™ delivered my present a couple of days early today. I’m being very good and not opening it until 1st January. But anticipation and excitement is definitely building, even though I already know what’s inside. I’m not giving any more away for the moment. But suffice it to say that I will be getting a lot of use out of the contents during 2010. Can’t wait!

Title: Bubble Chamber
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tube
Notes: Not a lot of inspiration today – it was another grey, grim, rainy affair. But then I found this bubbly mint Aero to have with a cuppa, and things didn’t seem so bad.

Notes: OK, more frost and ice. This time just outside the back door. You don’t have to go far for an interesting shot…

Title: Portion Control
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tube
Notes: This week’s 52Themes2009 subject is Food. Normally, I don’t have any problem with that! But I’ve been struggling to come up with anything remotely original for a picture, and today is the last day I can take it. So I decided a bit of lateral thinking was required. Around Christmas (it’s only next week, Yikes!), we can get a bit naughty with the amount we eat. So here is a nice, calorie-free meal for you – go on, you won’t put on a pound. Especially as these are not much bigger than a £1 coin 😉

Title: Purple Patch
Location: Park Inn, Harlow
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USM
Notes: I got in trouble last week for presenting you with a photo of my last Christmas lunch dessert – Profit Holes. Today’s pudding (Chocolate Torte) was even better, but I decided cowardice was the better part of valour, so here’s a picture of the table centre instead!

Title: Odd Men Out
Location: At home
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tube
Notes: Another day of meetings, driving and horrible rain. By the time I got home, I had to find my own light and thought this might make a nice image. It’s a tealight holder lit from inside with a desk lamp.

Title: Profit Holes
Location: Waltham Bistro
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 17-85mm EF f/4-5.6 IS USM
Notes: Lunchtime today was the Christmas party of one of my networking groups. We had an excellent menu, topped off by one of my favourites for pud, Profit Holes, aka Profiteroles. Nothing to do with my [email protected] which I did with friends Rob & Sue this evening. But we were so busy chatting and having a good catch-up that I forgot to take any pictures. D’oh!
