Outlook for weather tomorrow in the UK is not good Plus nobody down this way seems to be organizing anything.

I'm not really celebrating it, but it seems that I'm not qualified since I use a Samsung GX-10 (yeah I know). Regardless of the weather, I'm still going out and will be going around West London, around the Ealing area to check out some areas.

Well there ya go. A positive attitude! Good for you.I'm not really celebrating it, but it seems that I'm not qualified since I use a Samsung GX-10 (yeah I know). Regardless of the weather, I'm still going out and will be going around West London, around the Ealing area to check out some areas.
Over this side, we are attending a Moto Guzzi and Italian car meet at Mullberry on Swan. Weather is warm as Perth is mid way through a heat wave. Serious levels of UV and blue stuff above.

Got a quick outing pencilled in for tomorrow morning not long after sun up (or cat feeding time, which ever is the sooner ..). DA10-17 in The Circus, centre of, on my back with camera pointing straight up. Been done before but not with a Pentax DSLR. No go if cloudy.

Interesting idea. I just need to get out with my camera some more.
Sunday is not the best day as public transport is poor on Sundays.

Well, Cookie demanded her breakfast at 7pm, so got up just as the sun was coming up. Shouldn't have resisted her quite so long as the sky had a lovely set of pinky red bands - gone by the time I was mobile
Took the shot as planned - got a few strange looks from the few people around as I spread my length on the ground on an odd HV jacket. Sky was a little pale but I think it worked OK. Posted in Gallery - would link it if I could work out how.
