A pleasant pheasant plucker

I saw these freshly shot pheasants hanging outside of the King’s Head pub in the small village square of Wickham, Hampshire.  The man who’d just shot them was walking into the pub with three fresh kills while I was taking a couple of snaps.

I’m not happy with the photos, so I’ll have to return again in the near future to try and get some better images.

On the specials board inside, £9.50 for pheasant and chips.  If I hadn’t already eaten I’d have ordered.

Grey day in Southampton

I had a few spare minutes this morning on my way to a client meeting at the local Krispy Kreme outlet (gotta love clients who suggest meeting at a doughnut vendor!).

It was a damp, cold, ever so slightly depressing morning, and I wanted my photos to reflect the day.

I had parked on the top floor of the Bargate Shopping Centre carpark, and walked up East Street, along to the Bargate, and then in the back door by the book shop in West Quay.

I’m planning to photograph my home town more often this year.  I realised recently after living here my whole life I have no proper photographs of it.   Southampton really isn’t as bad as this set of images make out.  It’s not the prettiest city in the world, but it does have some nice bits.  I want to show it warts and all.
