so here are the portugal photos, all looking relatively washed out and soft. I'm pretty pleased with how they all came out, it looks like the konica is going to get a lot more use from me in the coming months.

























don't worry clarky did succeed!

this post has quite a high score in the title song to post content ratio, one of the best on wdphotos yet! i have a new camera, this one was bought at the rotterdam centraal market a couple of weeks ago for 4 euros, and the photos are lovely. i went to berlin with some amigos from rotterdam and the photos follow some rotterdam incidentals...

So I have been in Rotterdam for 2 weeks now, and its pretty good. Here is the first Netherlands based wdphotos post, and its a collection of photos from the tail end of summer, all via the lens of the old F2:



Adam goes round the bend in Leeds for the cameras, locals and tommy.



Clarky outside the hotel in Paris.

Not the first photo I've taken of Jason doing an ollie. This version took place in Manchester.

Its been a while since the last time I visited the new post page of the blogger website. A lot has happened in this time, the new/old Nikon f2 has taken some photos and been all over Europe this summer, and I have even managed to scan the results in for this post. in other happenings we all moved into the new house in July and it is now 'the avalon' from its engraving above the front door. after that members of the euro squad, jai jom and pg all went interrailing around Europe for 5 weeks and skated, rode and saw a whole load of strange and wonderful things, most of which can be seen in me new 20 minute video "check you owt". it is not going up on the internet or anything like the others have, so its a bit special and there are only about 15 dvd's floating about. I am going to make a web video of it though about 3 minutes long with some of the good bits and unseen stuff anyway. Since that stuff graphics 2nd year has started, and its pretty packed. we had a check you owt video premiere the weekend before last and that was mint, a projector was hired and some nice big speakers scavenged and the front room of the avalon was packed out with 50 or so people, not to mention all of euro squad, jai jom and pg in attendance (minus gareth though, who was missed by all and got the loudest cheers throughout the showing).

on to the photos...



Bike boxes dumped in Rijecka, Croatia on arrival for the trip.



Clarky on one of the first trains, i think this one was zagreb to budapest.

I have quite a few more photos to scan in from the trip so i'll try and get em up here pronto, hopefully the next post will come sooner than 4 months.
