From last nights bonfire.
Waynes photo blog.
It's been a killer few days, so much happening, I'm shattered. Managed to get some pics a few days ago. All shot on the Sony ZV1 compact.
Took this last night walking the dog (TZ80 compact) I've played about a fair bit with it, but I'm not getting what I "saw" when I took it. Dont think it works if I'm honest but time and dog walking got in the way of a better shot.
Yes those experts from the British met office have excelled themselves! Tis time with the precise dates of the next British heatwave.... Wait for it!..... May and June!
I kid you not, these big shoe and red nose wearing clowns have managed to predict warm weather for two of the normally warmest months of the year. I dont know how they do it. Is it alien tech, super computers, or mystic bloody meg coming though in a seance? Or are they doing what I supect counts as science by the met office and just guessing?
Well I can do BETTER met office. Heres a few predictions from waynesworldsblog alien tech, super computer, talking bloody cat, mystic smegging meg.
October and November will have cold wet spells and a few storms!
Even better some world predictions. The price of food will go up, the middle east will have conflict, some famous people will die and their will be a terror attack somewhere! Now thats more like a prediction!
Am I Baba Vanga? Am I Nostradamus? Am I fuck!. You dont need the brains of Albert Einstein, to predict the above. Nor do we need a bloody met office to predict warm weather in May and June.
The British met office... or twats as I call it has done it again. Yes a forecast of (big drum roll ) A HEATWAVE!!!!!!!! Yeah right! Obviously the met office and the rest of the world have a different idea of what a heatwave is.
The rest of the world classes a heatwave as a long hot dry spell. Indeed the dictonary says "A wave of hot weather" The met office on the other hand classes a heatwave as several hours of sunshine, on a cold windblown day. Not exactly fucking hot then is it? The word HEAT in heatwave should be a clue guys.
Shut it down and save the money. The forecasts are a joke, flipping a coin will get you at least as good a chance of being right as the joking forecast.
This has been an odd week aviation wise, two accidents in the US both involving in flight breakups, this is a very rare occurance. Two have two over a few days is courious to say the least.
A Piper Saratoga broke up and crashed near Claxton, Tennessee on the 12 Apr. the second aircraft also a Piper Malibu crashed on the 16th after breaking up in flight near Hartsburg Missouri.
Sadly one person was killed in each crash.
A light aircraft crashed in Brazil this week, the two people on board survived but the aircraft was destroyed by the post crash fire. Nothing unusual about that I hear someone say.
Well the aircrafts verification certificate ran out in 2017... 7 years ago. So if your on holiday abroad and fancy a flight, good luck.
Some countries are better than others at checking aircraft safety and pilots qualifications. One national airline abroad was found not too long ago to have I think it was 26 flight crew with faked or dodgy certificates. Their licences were either fake or they'd had someone else take the test for them.
These people were flying large passenger aircraft all over the world. Not supprising it only came out after a plane crashed because the crew made a right pigs breakfast of trying to land. They died as did most of the passengers.
Happy holidays!!!
Last few days I've been porley sick. Got a flu like bug.
I'll try and post some pics tomorrow.
Not feeling great today, old age is catching up with me. Heres a few fantasy pics generated by AI, while interesting enough, I cant see it replacing cameras yet.
Another two black and white shots. Not feeling great today, woken up by terrible headache (I get a lot of them) and I've got a fairly busy day planned, got lots to do, including the hated shopping !
Bus stop shot on my phone and the bolts on the Lumix TZ80
Nothing special, but with time and weather being a pain, and I have a lot of editing to do it's about the best I can come up with.
All shot on the TZ80 compact.
Back in nov 2021 I mentioned an accident involving the company called safe air (ironic) and the risky idea of using the word safe in an airline title. Well the company did it again, a 727 crashed in the Sudan, to be more precise it hit another already crashed plane on landing, the other plane had crashed in feb this year.
I really dont think using the word safe in connection with anything involving risk (like flying) is a good idea, if something goes wrong, and it will eventually even to the best company, you just end up looking a twit.
The good news is as far as I can find out nobody died in this accident, although the aircraft is classed as destroyed.
Taken very quickly, normally I spend a bit of time taking these sort of shots, not long but a few minutes. These were taken in seconds and in weird light.
