I actually went out with the camera today, to a local site called Sheepcote Valley. And I photographed… sheep!

Beautiful warm sunny day in Brighton. What to do? Some gardening with a watching fox? Watch the annual Naked Bike Ride through Brighton? No. Paint our kitchen ceiling. I’m now a knackered blob of sweat!

Hi Mary, the servers won’t let me reply in the Tech forum (odd, as I can reply to other posts there) but on your question I think the marquee tool will always show marching ants. It only changes to a solid border after you’ve used ctl/cmd T to get the transform box. Make sure you extend the canvas on your new layer copy BEFORE you use the marquee…Read More

Thanks for your reply Paul. Yes, I extended the border first, but I cannot get the marching ants to stop marching – have tried cal/T, cmd/T and both cal & cmd/T and none of them work – the ants continue. I rarely use Ps and this is why 🙁

Mary, I’ve put a reply for you in the Tech Forum – I can’t seem to reply to your post so it’s a new one. You’ll spot it in there,

Getting very excited to see red kites flying over our garden. Two days in a row now (and today there was a group of three) so it looks as though they might finally have extended their territory to this part of Sussex. Still way too high for anything decent photographically, but I live in hope.

Just put out some chicken legs Paul, then you will get more close up shots than you need.

Nice idea! But I fear the foxes will get there first!

A friend put chicken legs out on her bird table ten feet off the ground and had fifteen red kites dive bombing very soon after. But that was in Maidenhead which is pretty close to red kite central near the M40

Wow! I’m not sure I’m ready for that many! I remember watching flocks of them around Reading a few years back. Here, three flying overhead (and moving away, not circling) is a lot.

I’d be very happy to see them flying overhead too, perhaps more will follow soon.

In between decorating I’ve started clearing out my archive of old photos which are stored on multiple external drives. So far I’ve deleted over a terabyte of images and I’m only up to 2012! I’m being fairly brutal but occasionally come across an unprocessed image that I like. Today’s find was this collared dove in flight over a local pond. I…Read More
