Happy New Year, if a little belated.I spent first week of the New Year in Wales with my good friends Nat and Rob, and their parents and friends. They hosted a 1980s themed New Year party, so I ended up in the company of Bananaman, Magnum PI, The Incredible Hulk, Ghostbusters and Madonna to name but a few!! It was great fun and I took many shots of them, but since this is a public bog I will not post any photos of them here. Instead I've posted some close-ups of some of the food and decor, the former of which was in endless abundance. After much drinking and mirth, we tried to launch some Chinese lanterns, but with the strong winds it proved to no avail. I managed a shot of the Milky Way, though.The weather wasn't so great owing to the severe gusts and rain, but a I managed a few shots around town. I took my shots with the Nikkors 50mm F/1.8G, the 35mm F/2, and the Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8. All in all an enjoyable time spent with great friends in a lovely place with many fond memories.

Chinese Lanterns

The fence is in this shot because (using a wide angle lens) this was the only place and angle where I could block out the intrusive glare from an obnoxious nearby street light.
