20120103 - Virtual Ramble

Well, it's one way to enjoy the great outdoors from in front of the fire ;o)

Aaaargh - got home last night to find my 'phone line without a dial-tone - and therefore no interwebnet :o/
I'm now using a public-access thingy - it's not easy to connect to though. Very temperamental - not impressed.

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/25s f/2.8 at 100.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

A wonderful, cozy image!

Looks like a good night in front of the fire.... wouldn't be the same on the Kindle...

Beer and Wainright, a proper mix of styles

This is the way I go sailing, from the armchair. :)

Brilliant photograph and such a warming shot. Just sit back and relax, it may work tomorrow, if not enjoy another... V

A really nice scene you've put together.

Beautiful warm image. Makes me want to curl up in front of a fire with a good book. Mind you its forcast to hit 100F around here today so that wont be hard just step out the door. v

Better drink several of those to ease the pain of losing the internet! ;)
David Hobbs04-Jan-2012 00:28
Beautiful colours and tonings. Ooooh! That ale looks inviting. BV

Just relax with your still life ......
Very nice light and detail. Well done.
Sheila03-Jan-2012 23:08
Love the atmosphere you have created.
Especially like the autumn finds, the conkers etc.
Máire Uí Mhaicín03-Jan-2012 22:49
This shot glows throughout. Love the sharp focus on the objects in the foreground, and the warm glow of the fire behind. It makes the lack of internet look positively attractive.

Love the warm feel to this image, two great Wainwrights, beer and book. I see you have the revised book as well, I have just bought the complete revised box set, now to get to the lakes and try some routes out is the real challenge.
Mairéad03-Jan-2012 22:03
But who needs the Internet with all those home comforts?
Colin Dixon CPAGB03-Jan-2012 21:58
Wonderful warm winter photo hope the beer helped you relax after your internet problems.
Ray :)03-Jan-2012 21:55
The image is as warm as the beer ;-)

Lovely!
Faye White03-Jan-2012 21:52
Beautiful warm tones!
Johnny JAG03-Jan-2012 21:40
Nice glow from the fire in the background

Grand warming shot, and pleased to see the Autumn props still hanging on. Too cold for those Eastern fells this weekend.
