Wedding photos, finally

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

These aren’t the official wedding photos, just mine, don’t worry. I finally got round to uploading them this week, and now here’s the slideshow, after much faffing around.

If you’ve not used it before, click the thumbnails along the bottom, or use the play button and navigation buttons. To see a bigger version of the main picture, click it to go to the detailed Zooomr page for that photo.

Australia 2003, Part 2

More info on these soon, but here’s the photos for now.

Australia 2003, Part 1

Thursday, February 1st, 2007

I’m starting to put all my old photos up on Zooomr, now that I’ve got the slideshow in a reasonable state, and can get at Zooomr photo sets. So, we begin back in 2003 with the first half of a long holiday in Australia, visiting family.

Finally, all my Canada photos are up

Friday, September 8th, 2006

That’s it done! Almost 300 photos selected from the 1988 photos I took while in Canada. Yes, that’s a lot of photos, even the cut-down list. That’s why it’s taken me so long. If you want to see them all, start here.

It’s worth giving a nod to jUploadr here (a photo uploader for Zooomr and Flickr). I couldn’t have done all this without it.

Now all that’s left to do is put up the Callander Beer Fest photos, the Glen Vrackie Photos, and all the hundreds of old photos I took down before moving to this new server.

Oh bugger it, I’m off to the pub.

New photos up

Monday, September 4th, 2006

Quick note: more photos are up on Zooomr, from the start of the road trip up to Jasper.

Home and dry (metaphorically speaking)

Friday, August 18th, 2006

Yep, I’m back in bonnie Scotland, and it’s pouring with rain. No surprise there. The trip home was completely uneventful. No problems due to any “terrorist threats” or anything like that. I’ll spend the weekend puting more photos up.

Banff

Sunday, August 13th, 2006

Elaine’s off shopping here in Banff, and I’ve found an internet cafe I can plug the laptop into, so I’ve taken the opportunity to upload a whole bunch of photos from earlier in the trip. There’s something for everyone in here - cars, flowers, architecture and, best of all, lots of tractors (for Russ and Westy). Some highlights of the road trip to the Rockies are in there towards the end too, including some sweet new star jumps. However, no time to annotate them all just now, I’ll do that another time.

Lake Louise

It’s cold and wet here, and we can’t see any mountains. Bah!

Made it to Jasper

Wednesday, August 9th, 2006

We were supposed to be in Jasper last night, but didn’t make it until today due to some car trouble. Either a dodgy fuel pump, or a tank of bad gas petrol. We limped from just outside Edmonton to Edson, where there was a Ford garage, the idea being we could get to the garage first thing the next morning.

Latest and greatest star jump photo

Monday, August 7th, 2006

star jump

I’ve been trying to upload some photos at Elaine’s folk’s house using their 48k modem, but it’s taking too long. I felt it was very important to get the star jump one up there though, plus a few others. Russ has been complaining of being bored at work, so this (and the tractor) might cheer him up a bit.
