Dandelion

I’ve been meaning to get out into the back garden and take some photos of the dandelion’s. However when I’ve had the time they had already closed up for the evening, but I managed to make it out in time today.
A Bad Feather Day
I really like this one, it’s now my forth most interesting photo on Flickr.
A New Arrival
Duckling's Holding April's Hand by Jon Middleton, on Flickr
Our Duckling has decided to join us in the big wide world, so far it’s been a lot of fun.
Photo Geek stuff: Photo taken with Canon 100mm Macro lens with on-axis (below lens) off camera flash.

Taken on a recent trip to Edinburgh Zoo, I hear they are getting some wolfs again. So another trip will be required very soon.

I took my first Star Trails this evening, not too bad for my first attempt. There’s other photos of Fisherrow Harbour and Musselburgh at night in this set on Flickr.
CCNA Security
For the about the last 2 years my Cisco certifications have been mostly on hold, for a number of reasons (namely a study break, doing a ITIL certification, work and then DIY). However last week I passed the Cisco IINS (640-553) exam, this means that I can add CCNA Security to my list of Cisco certifications.
This is quite a new certification, as it was only released last year. The subject matter of the course is very similar to that of ISCW and SND. This should be a great help for me as my next Cisco exam should be ISCW, as I really would like to finally add CCNP to my growing list of certifications.
DIY Camera customisation
In last weeks Amateur Photographer (14th March 2009) there was a article on DIY flash customisation. There was instructions on how to build a simple flash grid; however the really hard part was finding black straws. After a quick trip to Ikea, I had some straws which were only half black.
This is the test photo, there’s an version taken without the flash grid the jump.
