It hasn't been the right weather for going out & about so just been taking pics from my window, anything really that takes my fancy.
Oil ship been berthed here for a few days now
Local small fishing starting to come out again
Choppers passing overhead to & from rigs way out there in the North Sea
Posing for the camera, perched on a street lamp post
Dancing the Rain Dance, no need for us to do but apparently the seagulls do lol
Oh no! it's that time of year again for cutting the grass
Local fishing boat homeward bound.

Nice to see you getting your camera out Kiya

I bet you are just looking at those helicopters in the hope of spotting Roy

. The fishing boat splashing through the White Caps looks good

and I see they are keeping your bench area nice and tidy for you, you will soon be having a picnic on that grass and chasing all those Seagulls away.

It wouldn't have been the first time Roy has flown overhead, he always spots our house from a distance with his carport.
I forgot to mention these photos are all taken with my long lens hand held, sometimes I rest the camera on the window frame but, not when taken the choppers.

Kiya have you thought of getting yourself a MonoPod to steady your camera on a zoom shot? They are really cheap on the likes of Amazon, I even have one that is a walking stick with a thread on the handle to attach to the camera, then you just extend it to a suitable height if you use it as a MonoPod.

Lovely photos! I like the seagulls and I like the last one of the ship heading home. Pretty choppy water out there.

Nice set of pictures Kiya

Glad the bench is still there......one day you WILL look out of your window and we will be sitting there.
I like the first two of the service vessel. Looks a really cool ship sprecially designed for its purpose and a fast looking hull. The first fishing boat is similar to those around our coast.....but the big one wouldn't even get into Whitstable harbour.
