By the way, in selecting a lobster to purchase to steam, pick one that looks angry and raises it's claws as this is the one that is more fresh.....

Just good light really the phone is not renown for it's camera. Right angle right light.
Took some others along the coast that were really poor.
£25 to get into the historic dockyard these days.. seems a lot but you get to clamber all over the Warrior and the Victory.. think I'll make a day of it next year, but the view of the Warrior from Portsmouth Hard was good enough that day.
We're looking forward to the painting Nigel and have a nice spot for it ;)
Still must finish that thread...
Few pictures of New York.

Yesterday we went for a drive in The Gatineau Hills and I spotted this nice little private plane and I had to stop and take a shot of it. I also loved how the sun was reflecting off the water and showing the nice lily pads happily floating before the big freeze comes.
