My camera never lies

Posted on 29th Mar 20226th Apr 2022 by One Vision

I’ve been talking alot of photographs lately.

Mainly during my walks. Interesting or odd things to see.

I cannot really see what I’m doing as it’s close up and the light is usually shining on the screen. You will usually find me searching for a darker spot, mainly loitering under a tree, or I wait till I’m under a bridge. Something like that. So I just click away getting alot of shots of the same thing and hopefully some turn out OK.

It’s always interesting when I get inside to see what images I’ve taken.

While I’m out I cannot change the settings at all. So set some settings before I go out.

Otherwise I’m tapping the video, the front camera, anything to get the photo option back on.

It is like a surprise when I get home to see what ive actually taken. I’m getting more interested in this as I see new places. I like the more unusual photo. Something odd where it shouldn’t be. The little things like flowers, nature, random stuff on my travels.

Above are 2 Lenticular clouds.

I was watching the sun setting and waiting for the stars 😍 and they appeared. I’ve never seen one before.

Lenticular clouds form when winds blow perpendicular to a mountain or other geographic barrier, like a canyon or body of water. The clouds are most visible when winds are the strongest during spring or winter.

That’s not me just randomly knowing that by the way.

I do do my research for this blog you know ☺

Funny Stories

Fuss in Boots

I’m not sure if this is an epic eyesight fail or me just being blumming me…

Went to visit the coast. Had a lovely walk around, with fantastic company, very funny day. The sun was shining. Warm. Absolutely gorgeous day there. Always say I’m going to have doughnuts. Never do.

Learnt that the fog that was rapidly rolling inland was called Haar. Which turned the air really cold, the more it came in, like a coastal fog covering everything.

This photograph below was taken in the afternoon. Covering the Grand Hotel, Scarborough and the Big wheel there.

Anyway… (rambling)… had my comfy plain black Doc Martens on #standard.

When I got home I was taking my boots off. Went to undo the zip on the other… No zip 🤔

I’d had 2 different boots on ALL day!

Both different sizes as well One size 7. The other size 8. 🤦‍♀️

My friend said he’d noticed when we were sat outside at the pub but didn’t say anything 😂

Thing is. As I was picked up from home that morning, I said I’d nearly popped 2 different boots on and STILL did it.

I’ve done this sort of thing before too.

Step around The World Challenge

Walk this way

So sod it. I’m doing it. The challenge that is.

The Macular Society do fantastic work to raise money for treatment or a cure for Macular diseases. For my condition we haven’t had a breakthrough… yet.

Please help me to raise funds for them so they can continue to try to find treatment or a cure for Macular Dystrophy. So I could possibly stay the way I am now and to help others like me too.

I will undertake their Step Around the World Challenge. Albeit, out in the open air. Not virtually.

I will walk/hike and update my challenge with videos and photos. Any weird and wonderful things I see on my travels. Will post alot. So get ready!

Hopefully will do this on Easter weekend at the Lake District.

So… I will be going up massive hills… With poor eyesight. What could possibly go wrong!

I’m hoping to walk 15 miles around gorgeous countryside within 2 days. I’m by no means a professional hiker, so this amount will be a challenge for me. I’ve found something in this recently that lifts your soul and helps your mental heath. Nature, fresh air, fitter, stronger with a sense of accomplishment.

I will upload my plan and where I’m going soon.

Any amount however small would be really appreciated.

If you could share my Just Giving page below, that would be awesome.
