Borris The Mouse

Wednesday, April 30th, 2003

Seemingly it came scuttling across the floor under a desk and behind a computer; this was a couple of months ago. I have been told it has happened several times since, but he has not been seen for a while now, this is Borris. Borris is a mouse. He must be shy because he only appears when the room we are in is almost empty. I wonder where he is now.

inspiration and experiments

Tuesday, April 29th, 2003

It’s difficult to write about fun, crazy adventures when nothing really happens. So in turn it’s tricky to post interesting comments here that would make people want to come back, I could lie. But I would feel wrong about lying. I do want this site to have some interesting content, not just links and photos. Maybe the problem is I need some inspiration. … But I have an Idea to help, for this site I am going to try some experiments. check back soon.

Nope, I managed to do it faster than I first anticipated. The photos are up from the helicopter, I have tried to get all the names correct but If I am wrong I am sure somebody will correct me Edinburgh Photos click here Remember that they are smaller than from the shots, I may post bigger ones soon

Nearly done with chopper pics

Friday, April 25th, 2003

I may take somewhat longer to post the photos from the helicopter, this is due to the fact that some need re-touched as I caught some of the window frame in some shots, not a lot photoshop will fix it. Now obviously I can’t fix them all as shooting through a window at speed is tricky at best. So I guess it will be a work in progress even when they are up (finished or not they will be up this weekend), I will try and get the names of places correct …
The new ghost cartoon is up click here this was done is Swish, I gotta learn Flash

aerial shots

Thursday, April 24th, 2003

Yesterday, I managed to get up in a helicopter whilst I was up I managed to take some aerial shots around Edinburgh, bear in mind though I am no professional photographer. So taking photos from 2000 feet in a moving chopper is not that easy although a lot of them are cracking shots. There was something like 88 shots taken, of that I will post 40~ish of them. The photos were taken at 1600×1200 but due to space when I upload them they will be reduced to 800×600. I may upload some at the higher resolution if asked nicely. :D Here are some Samples. expect the rest end of the weekend~ish

Its Easter time, so happy Easter I am sure that there will be chocolate eggs involved at some point. Also today sky will show the Simpsons 300th Episode, I believe that there is a pub that will show it on the big screen so I think I will head out to watch it.
