Days 1-3

Well there's always a problem to start with. Siegrid inconveniently chose the 3rd of January to start this challenge, leaving me 3 photos short at the start. However my crazy skills soon overcame that problem and one photoshoot later (my mood not helped by Manchester United losing beforehand), I have selected photos to represent days 1 to 3.



Day 1
This first one is very representative of the dynamics of our 2 boys. In the foreground Ewan is having a minor paddy, and in the background Denis is in the middle of an engineering project (building a ramp for sledging over).



Day 2
This was the dramatic sunset that really did all the work for me - all that was left for me to do was fiddle hopefully with the camera trying to discover how to get the most out of it. I like this one most -the lens flare would make J.J.Abrams weep...



Day 3
Once Ewan cheered up again I managed this shot of him having a break, the sunset reflecting off the flask.



It was a learning curve today, and I wouldn't expect to see any of my photos on the cover of National Geographic yet, but I reckon by the June edition they'll be ringing me...

Thanks for stopping by!
