Once upon a time, people wrote letters to their family, friends and colleagues when they had something to say. They sent greeting cards on special occasions and postcards when they traveled. In this age of electronic media, the form of these interactions had changed significantly, while the purpose remains the same: to communicate thoughts, feelings, ideas and impressions.
I am exceedingly fortunate: I live in a region full of sights and sounds, and have the luxury of exploring it regularly. My intention with this PhotoBlog is to share snippets of information (500-1000 words) and snapshots of observations (5-12 photos) weekly, on or about Thursdays. I’ve already discovered that this may not always be possible! In the ‘good old days’ letters, cards and postcards went missing once in a while, and so it is in this global age of the internet. Even in modern cities, LAN lines often don’t work and WiFi’s can be patchy when you least expect it.
On top of all that there is the steep learning curve: even though old dogs CAN learn new tricks it can take longer. I’m new to this Blogging stuff, so I’m not quite sure how it will all take shape. I hope to add new things weekly, and when time permits, to return to older digital images and stories, and possibly even dig out some film… Remember film?
So, lets see how it all goes. I hope you will enjoy my Weekly Wanderings.
Good luck with the new blog Ursula! I know how difficult it can be to find time to update as often as you would like, especially with Flickr too. Looking forward to reading your thoughts and stories as much as I enjoy your Flickr stream (^__^)
Thanks, Guava! I’m already feeling challenged. :-S
Hey Ursula,
I have thoroughly enjoyed your blog; you did quite well in managing to catch those aeroplanes mid flight, i also loved how shinny they were in close ups.

I get the impression you and London are getting along quite well. 😉
