Layers of Yellow

Another go at the daffodils.
I'm not overly happy with this photo, but I'm too tired to think about how to make it better!

Testing Times

Click image to view a bigger version

It's been a full-on few days with work, culminating in a test run today that went on until 21:30, so I'm quite tired now!

I can't show you what I was testing, but here are a few pics I took of some of our instrumentation while I was waiting for the run to finish.
This kit measures and records electrical current and many different temperature points while we exercise our test object electrically.
We learnt some useful things today.
A couple more after the jump.

You Must Deviate If You Wish To Proceed

Unless, perhaps, you are of exceptionally narrow stature.

I took a little walk around the village tonight. It's been another hard day at work today, and I was both tired and in need of fresh air.
Fresh air (and the chance of getting a photo) won in the end.

Nebulous Observations

Work, and a repair project for a friend ran away with my time this evening, so I'm afraid it's a backup photo again today.
I quite like this one, taken back on the 10th, when we had a cold snap. It's been around 13°C warmer today than when this photo was taken.

Fetching in Profile

I've got started on the daffodils very early this year! I didn't know you could get them in the middle of winter, but my Mum found some.

This is a focus stack of 15 photos, although there isn't a great deal to choose between this stack and a single frame shot at f/22 - this stacked one is a little sharper overall, so I went for it.
