ScuzzBlog: Diaries September 2021 Entry 1st September 2021: Post 2: Goodbye Blue Sky. Goodbye Blue Sky. There is a track by Pink Floyd on The Wall called Goodbye Blue Sky. I am not a fan of the summer. I wouldn't mind if the weather was more variable with patches of cloudy days plus the sun, but the years of late have given sustained periods of intense sunshine which sadly renders the upstairs to this house unusable. So this year at the first sign of trouble I abandoned my efforts to work around the heat and moved into the cool of the workshop. In the end there was only really two spikes of hot weather and the rest of the time it was relatively cloudy. However I was well established in the workshop and determined it better that I stay away from the internet until September. And so the day has returned when I can again venture freely in the upper quarters and so I return. During the period I have not stopped photographing and recording the collection and have a good two months already in the bag. Below is a taster of what is to come. Incredibly this week I managed to lose my desk lamp that I use to flood my subjects with light, and also broke the tripod. I need to obtain a replacement suitable tube. I fixed the tripod earlier. Today I was concluding a little adventure with Paperboy on the Amstrad CPC464. I have some more work to do though with the feature not appearing until two months from now it is something that can wait until I get a new lamp. Here are a few of the images. Anyhoo here is a short list of what I have in the bag. So we should be back to a steady flow after today.
