About
This site is a Photoblog, a place where I can show you in pictures the sights and scenery of my home town, South Shields, in the North-East of England. Now and then I might show you pictures of other places of interest nearby.
On the whole the pictures will be as my camera sees them, with very little in the way of post processing, if I have made any great use of Photoshop then I will let you know. My current camera is no big deal it’s a Pentax K100D digital SLR, which was about the biggest that I could afford at the time, besides, my own view is that a good picture is taken in the mind, the equipment is irrelevant. Most of my posts will contain a map link to Google Maps so you can clearly see the locations where pictures were taken, it will also help familiarise yourself about where South Shields is in relation to the rest of the U.K.
Since August of last year I have been a member of the Daily City Photoblogging community who set out to publish just one picture each day of their home towns, it’s been great fun, so if you have the time please visit one or two of the sites in the links pages. The old Curly’s Photoshop site is also still available in the links until such time as I can log in to the old Blogger site and transfer all of the posts to here.
Please enjoy your visit!
