So yesterday we treated ourselves to a wee day trip to the Zoo. Kerry and I were both trying to work out just how many years it had been since our last visit to the Zoo, and neither of us could actually remember our last visit so were Peter Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09801060173643383193noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788116940051917978.post-87535611165527654452010-03-21T02:52:00.001+00:002010-03-21T03:00:03.916+00:00Red Bull City LimitsWell today saw the RedBull F1 team take to the streets of Belfast and bring a small piece of Formula 1 to yet another country that wouldn't typically get to see these cars throughout the motorsport calender.
I have to thank a few people at this point. Geoff McConville for his hospitality with drinks and canopes laid on for guests including Kerry and Myself, James McCauley for pointing me in the Peter Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09801060173643383193noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788116940051917978.post-82777926003404729852010-03-18T14:06:00.001+00:002010-03-18T14:08:52.361+00:00RED BULL F1 - Belfast 20 March 2010Formula One power will come to Northern Ireland this Saturday when Red Bull take to the streets of Belfast. The team’s former racer David Coulthard will be at the wheel for the evening demonstration run in front of the iconic City Hall.

So a wee trick nicked from Sir Bosanko just to say thank you to everyone who visited whether out of interest, nosiness, or accident. Hopefully you have enjoyed at least one or two of the photographs.
This does not mean that this site will now slow down and get all boring.

Today was spent cabling, tidying and making sure everything worked together as one in our very basic PC controlled Home Cinema setup.
Unfortunately we can't quite afford the huge tv, mass of amps and floor speakers to have the outfit we dream of, but it is getting there slowly.
Dont worry, I'll come up with Peter Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09801060173643383193noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788116940051917978.post-75651771146314415752010-02-26T21:33:00.000+00:002010-02-26T21:33:05.718+00:00Day Twenty SixOne of my all time favourite quotes is from the book Hannibal. This was Dr Hannibal Lector's vision into Clarice Starling. The quote is as follows.
"There are shallow rollers, and there are deep rollers. You can't breed two deep rollers... or their young, their offspring, will roll all the way down... hit and die. Agent Starling is a deep roller, Barney.

Reality is somewhat different, it is a match, I struck it across a Swan Vesta box and opened the shutter.
I like the results though, a reaction that is incredibly hard to try and understand in detail in realtime when the match is struck infront of you.

These were destined to be the new business cards. They went out of fashion about 10 years ago and I'm on a one man mission to reinstate their coolness into modern society.

Instead what you have before you is a wine glass, some warm water and Kerry pouring blue fairy liquid into the glass from above.
Unfortunately the batteries decided to give up the ghost in the flash, so further shots to try and improve were a no go until we have them recharged.

With a wee spot of lighting advice from Stephen Potts I got this as close to what i wanted.
Minimal post processing included slight vignetting round the lower half of the image to match the natural vignette on the top half, aside from this this is totally as Peter Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09801060173643383193noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788116940051917978.post-36667524804980484402010-02-21T23:25:00.000+00:002010-02-21T23:25:54.086+00:00Day Twenty OneDay Twenty One. Scanning the house for ideas and every day i overlooked the small collections of VW Campers that were originally destined to spend their lives as egg cups and money boxes as opposed to shelved ornaments.
Anyway, hey were dragged off the shelves for the first vehicle photoshoot of the year.
Hope you like.

Tim is now a part of the family. He was adopted during the purchase of a 1973 VW Type 3 Squareback which caused quite a stir in the Northern Ireland car scene. Tim was the deal breaker, if he didnt come with the car then the deal was not being done.
As such Tims following began, he ended up with his own bebo and facebook pages, he dug round peoples houses and emptied their Peter Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09801060173643383193noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788116940051917978.post-49906530490366248242010-02-20T00:23:00.000+00:002010-02-20T00:23:43.122+00:00Day NineteenOkay, so you know times are desperate when you resort to toilet humour. lol. oh and no point zooming in there boys ;)
And before you all start, no im not riding on a chicken, nor is there better hanging out of a nest and no, i dont wax :P
So that said, who can come up with an original embarassing comment now. i will leave that to you lot.

When Kerry and I were doing the "pre-house move" Ikea strut, we happened upon this coat hook and for the simple reason it made me laugh, we bought it.
Anyway, I'm not sure if admitting this is a good thing, but i still find it amusing and secretly chuckle to myself when i walk past knowing there is a dogs arse hanging off our wall.

Not just yesterday either, cos those pancakes had their repercussions and let me tell you it isnt nice. This is from 18th December 2007, My last official day in the Royal Air Force. From that day on I wanted to live the dream, grow my hair and be in the same country as my family and friends for most of the year.

I believe this was the most pancake looking pancake we managed to make, unfortunately the rest of them looked more like a poor effort at making an omlette. Anyway, they tasted good and thats all that matters.

Having spent the last 8 years or so driving, modifying and racing Hondas. Having my life turned round and run by them, having friendships and relationships made and broke through them, i think it is only right that the Honda brand should have its place in this project.

A couple of years ago I was introduced to the world of Pinstriping and Kustom Painting. As such I attended two Pinstriping Workshops at the North Coast Hot Rod Shop run by world class pinstriper Nefarious.
As such 2 years later I had a panel striped by Nefarious and had it tattoo'd across my shoulder blades. So to say Pinstriping is a passion would be an Peter Moorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09801060173643383193noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788116940051917978.post-3104698880097405272010-02-14T00:38:00.000+00:002010-02-14T00:38:13.961+00:00Day Thirteen
Day Thirteen and we are back to the DC's. More brand whoring for Ken Block and the ever classy element skateboards.
Lighting is once again just a single Nikon SB-24 with a card snoot made out of an "Old El Paso" fajita box. Nothing special whatsoever to have the same effect you would get from much more expensive equipment which i am yet to remove from their boxes for this project.

So here is a little injection of colour in the form of the straw collection.
Hopefully this brightens up your day a wee bit
Come back tomorrow and we'll see what we can conjure up for you

Not quite, but i did break out the collection of Jaegarmeister bottles and stuff only a true Jaegar lover would own :D
As such we now have the photo on the left to stare at and see how much dust is really in our living room. Looking back, perhaps a quick rub with a microfibre cloth would have been suffice to prevent the same thing happening again.

Having only got back home at ten pm tonight, then having to cook something for Kerry arriving home plus the 3 S's, time was unsurprisingly scarse today to come up with something funky and rewarding.
So instead you have a photograph of my dinner in the making.

All i can really say is that I am glad Kerry is a lover of ducks, so she is taking this one under her wing and raising it as her own along with the other 500 or so ducks that seem to have made their way across the threshold without detection.
Thanks again for looking and hopefully this one amuses some of you.

Im just back in after having spent the day cleaning the Mini we were rallying in at the weekend. So i sat down with a cup of coffee and a wee battenburg to settle the stomach until dinner time. Two or three baby battenburgs later i chose not to finish the packet off just yet.

I do have to say that despite the grubbiness, its probably the brightest photo I have taken in a long time.
Thanks for viewing.
