Well, after a bit of work, my photo site aboughtlight is up and running (again). By a bit of work I mean a couple of hours deciding on how I wanted it to look and what I wanted to do and then about 15 minutes to get it the the stage where I could add content.
I’ll add a photo every day or two as I trawl through my archves or take new photos.
On my walk yesterday I happened to pass a fountain…… The B&W one has some lovely tones on my monitor (and in a larger size) not sure what it looks like on yours…..
Here’s a large version on Flickr
Wow – After publishing the last post I glimpsed at the control dashboard and saw that it was post number 999 which makes this number 1,000!
The first post was made on the 20th March 2002 and was, funnily enough, about beer 😉 We had a website before then but all the pages were static (except for some php includes) and so moving to a blogging application backend made a huge difference. Even more amazing is the fact that the posts have made it through four different products – MoveableType, pMachine, ExpressionEngine and WordPress. Plenty of broken links in the older posts but the text is there.
I’m thinking about resurrecting my photo site aboutlight.com and using wordpress to manage the photo’s. The base software and databases are installed and now I need to find a theme that I like.
Of course I’ve said this before so let’s see if I find the time or inclination…….. 🙂
In the last 3-4 months I have been flying relatively little and most of that has been international. I’m sitting in the airport lounge at the moment waiting for a short, 35 minute flight to Nelson and the barista remembered what coffee I drank and even that I take one sugar.
Seeing that I haven’t used her services for at least three months and that she must make a couple of hundred coffees a day that’s pretty damn impressive
Nothing much to say really.
Here’s the reflection of a church in Copenhagen.
So all four of us are lying in bed on Sunday morning and Vic says to the boys “do remember what day it is today?”
Elliot looks at Max and shouts out:
“Happy farmer’s day!”
A funny way to start off father’s day 🙂
