Blog off.

I was surprised how long it has been since I last posted anything. Even that was just a cut and paste job. I am currently at a crossroads. My work is all consuming and my interest in it is all disappearing. Sadly I am unable to "coast" and so I continue to work like a ............... trojan. My outings with the camera are becoming rarer. Also the Leica distracts me. I love it but it is not a wildlife camera. Rangefinders simply are not the best tool for the job. But for reportage or street photography, scenics and the like, it is probably unbeatable in DSLR terms. Medium format of course would win but I can't afford a Hasselblad. Hot weather may be good for bugs but it is not good for me and 35 degrees Celsius isn't going to get me out ite and abite as Prince Charles would say. So I am going to hibernate the blog. It may reawaken some day, Rip van Winkle like (a wonderful playmaker in the mould of Neeskens) and if my plans come to pass maybe I can devote more time to it in H2 2011. But for the time being, toodle jolly PIP!

Well, you'll have to entertain us with your sparkling wit and repartee ( Spanish left-half ) in person in the meanwhile...

I've enjoyed your blog - hope to see you back in future. I know from experience that what seems to the reader like a couple of hasty paragraphs in a blog can be the result of considerable thought and time. I envy those bloggers who seem to have the leisure to dash off multiple pages effortlessly every day (though I don't usually have time to read them!)

Oh blah blah - it's your blog, come and go as you please! It may feel like one more thing to keep track of at the moment, but things change and sometimes a tedious chore turns out to be a welcome respite.
