I got out my trusty Canon PowerShot G3 last night before I went to bed and set it up to take this time lapse video of a lily. The G3 has a built-in intervalometer. So this was set to take a picture at 5 minute intervals over a 7 hour period. I thought the lily would open up at a pretty linear pace but it didn't. Most of it's movement was in the last hour. So when I do this again I need to judge when that hour is and reduce the interval time.

I've moved house so it's been a bit quiet round the website for a couple of months. I finally came to the the end of my tether with the daily commute between Glasgow and Edinburgh. I'd been doing that for three and a half years. I have no idea how I managed it for so long and it's only now that I'm not doing that journey everyday that I realise how much of an impact it had on my life. I now have a short cycle to work, mostly on a cycle path. What a difference it makes. Phew.

This is a short clip from a trip to Lower Largo in Fife last Sunday. It's the first time I've been there. A nice wee place. It was very cold though. Brrr. Didn't know anything about Lower Largo till I did a google search when I got back home. It was the birth place of Alexander Selkirk who apparently provided the inspiration for Daniel Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe" novel which I have to say have never read or been interested in. This is the inscription on the wall at the Alexander Selkirk statue.

I had planned to take some video of the autumn colours around Glasgow. Scuppered by the weather again.

On Friday the Evening Times, the local evening newspaper for Glasgow revealed that the new sony bravia advert would be shot in Toryglen, Glasgow, in a follow up to the balls advert shot in San Francisco. My friend and I were over on Sunday and I got this footage. I was also there on Friday and Saturday but more on that later.
