A while back I posted a picture of a landlocked sailor. This is a close up of the Dog that stands with the sailor.

CSI Sittingbourne
When I first moved here there was an article in the local free newspaper that gets delivered each week about an attraction in town called CSI Sittingbourne. I had visions of a Grisham type person spraying Luminol all over the place and shooting dummies whilst blasting out The Who. It was in fact an archaeological preservation team that had been working in the area. Unfortunately the CSI Sittingbourne project has had to close down due to lack of funds… it’s a shame as it got my Nephew interested in Archaeology. Hopefully they will be able to open up again soon.

This was taken with Hipstamatic using Lucifer VI Lens, Float Film and No Flash. When I checked the image it seemed awfully dark. It puzzled me as it wasn’t a dark time of day when I took the shot. I have used acdsee Camera Flash just to pep this up a little. I think I have found my least favourite Hipstamatic Film Lens combo.
A Super Mug
I collect mugs. In fact my family would say that I hoard them. Each Easter I always ask for a Chocolate Egg that comes with a mug. I have been like this since I was a kid, no idea why, I just like mugs.
Back in 1999 I worked at the now defunct Warner Brothers Studio Store at Be Water in Kent. It was hands down the best job I ever had in any field. I got paid to play with toys and watch cartoons all day. It wasn’t work to me. I got to talk about Superman and Batman all day. No one would look twice when I had a silly minute and started singing “Hello My Honey” by Michigan J Frog behind the tills.. in fact my managers encouraged it.
Anywho, back to the mugs.. I bought this mug with my first pay check. It was oversized and it had a big Superman logo on it. I also bought the Batman equivalent but that got broken some where in the distant past. This mug is over 13 years old and I still use it for 99% of my hot drinks to this day. Any other mug just doesn’t feel right.
It's a passion thing.

Tryptych
I was surfing around today looking for inspiration and came across a site PhotoJoJo. It is more of a general photography site than a phoneography site. They do have a spin off Tumblr site dedicated to phoneography – WeLovePhoneography. The neat thing about the Tumblr site is that it is not one phone centric. It caters for Android as well as iPhone. I always think that it’s good to see what other handsets can do.. it often leads to ideas of seeing if I can do it on the iPhone.
Anyway, getting back to my point. The inspiration struck when I saw an article about the app Diptic. Whilst I like the look of Diptic, I didn’t want to spend out for another app when I had one that already did this. Maybe in the future I’ll branch out and try another but I played around with Frametastic. It does what you need and it’s free (there is an in app purchase for an additional 18 frames, but the scope with the ones you get for free will get you started)
I quickly put together a Triptych frame using some of the Lava Lamp images I have featured her this week and played around with the in app effects to modify the images a little.
Sorry for the ever expanding Lava pics.
A Hip Cat
A cat so cool she wonders who made who
I have posted a picture of this cat before ( a couple of times) but this picture is one I hadn’t realised I had taken. I would have used this above any other. I really like it.
Last of the Lava
This is the last Lava picture.. (for a while anyway)
