364. High Speed
The year has almost come full circle. This shot is very similar to one I posted at the start of the year - a long exposure on Waterloo Bridge. These light trails are made by cars driving over the bridge - they give the impression of high speed.

352. Fashion
Knitted garments in Fair Isle or Scandinavian patterns seem to be in fashion at the moment. These cosy slippers were actually given to me last Christmas and I absolutely love them.
349. Duty
No, I wasn't really on platform duty on the Avon Valley Railway...one of the guards gave me his hat to wear. I obviously didn't take this photo - B's mum did, so thanks for this one Bette! I thought it was more fun than a photo of the real guard on duty.
339. Somber
I was really struggling to find something to fit with this theme - particularly around the festive season which has been anything but somber for our very fortunate families this year. Then I found this sheep's skull and thought it would fit well enough - it's not exactly joyful is it?
337. Panorama
This set of photographs were actually taken in Polperro, Cornwall, earlier this year. I have only just stitched them together to make this panorama. Not the best, but it was done sans-tripod so I had to make do with a few slightly misaligned bits!

335. Desire
This adorable little man was very taken with the bubbles I set up for his family portrait shoot. He just wanted to chase, catch, hold and stare at them...which made for some great photos.
334. Fear
When Florence gets frightened of something - such as the sound of the post being pushed through the letterbox or a leaf - she hides in amongst the CDs. Crazy cat.
333. Speed
The London Eye does look as though it's spinning at some speed here, but it's just a long exposure (slow shutter release) which has meant the light trails are left.
332. Awful
B and I played a truly terrible game of Scrabble on Friday. There were nearly tears - I'm not a good loser.
331. The Office...
...is wherever I shoot, edit and package photographs. This year I have managed to turn photography from a hobby into a business. How lucky am I?
330. Tools
The tools I was using to package up photographic prints for clients last week. My living room was in total disarray.

327. Electricity
They certainly wouldn't have been there when the railway original opened, but I loved these little coloured light bulbs, bringing a Christmas feel to the station platform.
324. Prosperity
Sitting in a steam train - one of the Victorian symbols of prosperity - while using an iPhone, the modern equivalent.
316. Domestic
B proved himself to be something of a domestic god by hand-making this Formula One cake for his dad's birthday. I was amazed.
