I initially hesitated to use a flash taking this shot, but was glad I did use it. It's not nearly as dark as you think in this unedited image. I really like what the flash has done here. I'm generally apprehensive to use it.

Anyhow. Silly level of tired. Bed.

Crucifix Orchids... very pretty little things. I tried to take a close-up but was using the wrong camera for it and sadly they came out blurred. Might have another go later with the SLR so I can focus it myself. Stupid auto focus would briefly focus where I wanted it then insist on focusing on the shadecloth every. single. time.

Went to the ASO's 'Last Night of the Proms' tonight. It was fun. Saw various instrument bows used as balloon bats and cello spikes and the conductor's baton used for popping!

I'm right in the middle of a block of sixteen days with at least one shift a day at the moment... and very tired. So off to bed with me.
