15th October 2003

Next Door

Dave and Mary, next door, are laying a new front "garden" and are having four tons of shingle delivered on Saturday. Early this morning the lorry arrived with the ballast to use as an under layer. I saw the lorry through the window, grabbed the camera and ran.
Poor old Dave, who had been enjoying a cup of tea in bed, was outside in his dressing gown and bare feet.

Yes Eric, I used the monopod and as you see 1/10 sec was OK.

Very cool image Chris! See how this project has us thinking 'photographically' all the time? :)
