Moving On Over To WordPress!

So as the title says, I'm moving this whole show on over to wordpress. As much as I love blogger and I do, after playing with wordpress for the last 24 hours I think I prefer the simplicity of it and the speed with which I can make posts (not to mention import in a minute, every post I've made here in the last year which is cool) and have all of my image hosting and publishing all on one site and in one seamless environment. All my posting will stay here for the time being but there won't be any new postings here so follow the link http://blacksmithpro.wordpress.com/ to the new site where the posts will continue from now on.

Walk About part 2



Walk About Part 1

Some random shots from my walk about with my Dad in two parts.


Funky Hats & The Masons

My Dad noticed this unusual hat shop while I was busy taking the photo below it of the apex of the block which houses the head quaters of The Masons so grabbed a quick shot of their display before we moved on.

Wild Life

From my brief walk through the Natural History Museum with a friend. Need to go back there with my brother to get the butterfly exhibit too.

The Fountain

Went down to the John Soane's museum with my Dad after checking online when they were open and what criteria there was for visiting. Upon arrival we were asked to put our camera bags in clear plastic bags to which we both said "sod that" as it meant no photography inside, no flash photography I can understand but none at all is not for me so we went for a walk instead (see the mannequins and writing on the wall). This old drinking fountain is across the road from the museum at the entrance to the square. Lovely textures.
