Classic car
This lovely old car was shot at the classic car expo yesterday. I took tons of photos, so watch the blog for more to follow.
Junk?
While I was shooting at the classic car expo, I came across a stall selling old workshop tools. The seller wanted to know why I was taking pictures of “my junk”. Well, old tools have history. They tell a story, and they leave questions behind. Who owned these tools, what were they used for, how did they end up here, what was fixed or made using these tools?
Junk? I don’t think so.

I have been trying to shoot a really sharp picture of the moon for ages, and I think I am getting close. I shot this on a bright and clear night a few days ago, just before the moon became full.
Lightpainting
Sometimes you need to have some fun, enjoy the process and not worry too much about the outcome. So when I saw that my Christmas tree lights had not yet been put away, I plugged them in, took out my camera, set it on a low shutter speed and did some finger painting!
The results are a little abstract and trivial, but I had loads of fun, and sometimes that is what it is all about.
Although thinking about it, the bright lights in front of a black background could be an omen on the future of the SOAP bill; I hope so.
Here are a few more of the pictures.
Stop SOPA
On January 18th, 2012 the Internet is going on strike to stop the SOPA web censorship bills in US Congress. Notes from the Cape will be joining the strike (along with Reddit, Wikipedia, Mizilla, Tucows, WordPress and a number of other sites) , and will be down for 12 hours, from 8am to 8pm.
While this bill is a US bill, it will have a profound effect on ALL Internet users, and you can lodge your protest as a US or non-US person.
You can find out more information here: http://sopastrike.com/ or here http://americancensorship.org.
