Exactly as it came out of the camera (only lower quality).

I don’t know about the ‘rule of thirds’ (though I did read up on it – thanks Terry) but out of some random clicking earlier I really like this. I can see a variety of things in it – a claw, a crane, lights, fireworks….

Hurling rain

Sitting here working looking down the garden at dark skies, trees being blown in all directions and rain that isn’t just falling it’s being thrown with a vengeance. It’s battering everything out there. And now the thunder starts.
Lovely :)

Spiders on stilts

Took Winston for a walk about an hour ago. Late, dark, not windy. Part of our route involves the old road between our village and the next. It’s around 12 feet wide at least. It has raised verges now – to stop “travellers” camping there – and just behond those verges are trees and bushes. It’s a quiet night, no breeeze. I’m walking along in the middle of this road and I’m getting facefuls of spider web. Maybe not ‘facefuls’ but enough that it’s irritating and I can feel them going over my head and off when I brush through my hair (I’m worth it ;) ). So how do they get 6 ft up with a 12+ ft gap? They can only be using stilts.
