Weekly Photo Challenge: Achievement

This picture is me juggling, juggling three balls was an achievement, now I’m attempting to achieve further and juggle with four. Behind me is a drawing I made of singer Lauryn Hill in 2001, possibly my greatest graphic achievement. On my finger a wedding ring, after two failed marriages, I have finally found a wonderful woman with whom I wish to spend the rest of my life, five years into marriage we have yet to have an argument, which is no small achievement.

Getting the photo of me juggling was also an achievement, putting the camera on self timer and hoping to get a suitable shot (many failed).

A year of blogging is also a small achievement (this my 278th post on this blog), I will never get an Olympic Medal or a Nobel Prize but small achievements are heartening.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Nighttime

At night I like to experiment. I move the camera around making patterns of the city lights.

At night, I set the camera on Aperture Priotity, point it in the direction of the surrounding tower blocks then swirl it around, creating these light patterns. I like the effect.
