New Lens
Canon 50mm 1.4 lens, which on the 400D is like using 80mm of portrait lens.
Wide Aperture Photography
I’ve been trying out taking photos with the aperture set very wide. In full sun the shutter speed ends up at something like 1/2000th and I had to bump the ISO to 1600. Still, even with an unwilling subject I got some nice results.
An Unexpected Swim
Someone went for an unexpected swim today.
Plum Trees
I’ve been making plum jam from the plum tree in the garden, and strawberry jam from cheap punnets at work. Plum trees, or perhaps their feathered inhabitants, are also of interest to certain spotty individuals.

Kitten has finally arrived
She was a perfect little sweetie in the car from Wanganui to Wellington. After the initial shock, she entertained herself with a scrap of sheepskin for a bit before curling up to sleep the rest of the way.
When she got home she found the spare room with the boxes in it.
More kitten photos!!!
Need I say much more?
Games at Heather’s
It’s Queen’s Birthday weekend, and there’s nothing like a nice Sauvignon Blanc and a spot of boardgames on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Some Settlers of Catan, some Hacienda and good company.
