Receipts from 1976

Receipts from 1976, a photo by Spherical Roy on Flickr.

My dad kept receipts from seemingly the most significant purchases since around 1970. I've uploaded some of the ones that are most interesting to me, seeing as they document things that I have seen or used all my life.
The full set is here:

New pics up

Have had an evening of sorting through photos and as such have updated my Flickr for the first time in a while! Too much to talk about but shall list the sets:
Homegame, Whitehills windfarm, Edale, Scope, Love Calculator, Dundee, Dumfries and Galloway before Christmas, and even Paris!

Here's one at random:


I am Roy.

Robin Friend, photographer

Mr. Murphy links in his most recent post to photographer Robin Friend, with some beautifully haunting pictures such as this:



Apparently Murphy has reviewed his work in Hotshoe magazine but I can't find the article on't web on the first search, so must keep an eye out. Its so much more expensive, the whole magazine world, when you can't stand in Borders shamelessly dog-earing the periodicals. I guess that's why there are no more Borders (the shops, not the boundaries)..

Grampian Mountains

The newest link on theSlog blog (from whence these posts come, for those of you viewing this on facebook) is Grampian Mountains, the blog of Glasgow based graphic designer and disc jockey Point to C, whom I had the pleasure of meeting recently. Very tasty photos and compositions alike.. checky:

Simply Gorgeous

Timelapsed Tilt and Shift videos from Keith Loutit, via Why That's Delightful (Graham Linehan's blog).

This is indeed delightful:


Bathtub IV from Keith Loutit on Vimeo.

I wonder if Linehan loves it because it reminds him of the Big Train DVD menu design!

Look out for the NYK reference in the above video! Nice soundtrack too - from one Megan Washington.

Photo dump

Flickr is being flaky and not letting me imbed a photo post so here are some links to:

Photos from Inspector Tapehead's recent Limbo gig in Edinburger they are good.

Suzy G's photos from our trip into the hills on Saturday it was snowy.

My photos from recording at Garmelow manor a couple of weeks back it was fun.

I've been pretty lucky with doing fun stuff recently, it's true. Its been hard work too though.

Sheddy

I just spent the entire weekend at the Shearer/Ling Cottage homestead in Norfolk, much of which was spent helping to put a roof shaped thing on Neel's 'shed' - photies here:

non news

I've rearranged all my collections on my Flickr page so that they make more sense. At least I didn't geo-tag them, that would be sad.

I've been published!

Well sort of - in a very roundabout, lazy way. Schmap.com is a tourism site with info about Glasgow that they cull from various commons repositories, hence tehy came across my Flickr photos. Its nice to get some recognition!
