A B&W Day

Hello Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here.

What a super day it's been, the sun has been shining almost all day today!

Now, yesterday Old Two Legs was playing with the IR camera and the sort of reverse B&W and IR reflections.

Well, today he decided to go all 'Traditional' and stick with B&W plus a Yellow Filter, all very old fashion!

Well, The Missus decided to go in a different direction to where Old Two Legs was going and both Holly and I decided her way was going to be more interesting.

Unfortunately, we missed the fox that OTL spotted and what did we see?

Leaves!


Pity we didn't have the telephoto lens!

Holly and I raced after OTL when he called out that there was a fox but we missed it!

 

OK OTL, here we are, where is that fox?

OK, so, we missed the fox but a bit further around the golf course we saw Milly and Maximus enjoying the sniffs.

Maximus was happy to have his photo taken but Milly said all she wanted was a cuddle!

OK, how about this?

We went to have a look at the pine needles TM had been looking at, not too sure what was so interested!

The afternoon walk took us along the sea front but there were too many Two Legs walking along the sea wall to be safe.

We decided that it would be better to have a walk through the forest, at least there were shadows!


When we got back to the car park, we saw that there were loads of cars that had arrived and the drivers had all gone off to the beach!

You know it's Bank Holiday when then car park gets full!

Well, that's it for today, see you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

Sunny Day!

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret back again.

What a super day it's been. It started off a little grey but soon it warmed up. Eric and Wendy enjoyed a rampage around the house dooking and diving around the furniture and upstairs in Old Two Legs office!

One thing we like is our ability to tell the time. It sorts of creeps up and we have just got to tell OTL! It starts just before it gets light and again just before six!

You know it's the same at lunchtime, there we are snoozing under the table when, all of a sudden, there is the need for a walk!

Today it was back to the sea side at Grain.

We jumped down from the car and raced across the football field and met up with a little Jack Russell.

As normal. we exchanged information on sniffs on our planned walk path.


The IR camera came with us again today and today OTL fitted a different lens, just to see what can be done!


Looking at this picture you can see how the plants reflect the IR and how the camera handles IR once the filter has been removed.

OTL says that it's a novel type of photography but too much is a bit of an overload on the brain!


I think that if I had to make a choice, I would prefer Black & White rather than IR.

Now, when we got to the spot where we can see the Grain Tower there is nothing that the IF can work on so there is another result which is also strange!

Today, because it's the Bank Holiday Weekend the beach and sea side is full of Mini Two Legs playing in the mud!


Another thing you can see is that birds do not reflect IR. Take a look at this Chiff-Chaff that was singing its tail off at the top of the tree.

 

Tomorrow OTL says he will get out the B&W camera and the 28<300mm lens.

See you all tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
