Manchester this...
evening, and heavy on the photoshop thank you very much. I've got a loverly little Canon IXUS 60 and took this handheld on ISO 800, then fiddled with photoshop and now it looks like a painting. Excellent!
Was out on my bike again, in the dark. I've bought loads of flashing lights so I wont be killed, put em on my helmet, on the bike, on the bag, on the pedals, on the spokes, on the handlebars, on the seat post, got so many lights I'm bleedin' knackered just hauling round my own weight in batteries. I'm so bright children think it's the Fair arriving and shout "Huzzah!" Birds think it's dawn and begin the morning chorus, a group of fundamentalists recently mistook me for the second coming and formed a new church and now I emit so much light I can be seen from space.
Still, if I get knocked down the buggers won't be able to claim they didn't see me.
"Your Honour, I was driving along the Queen's carriageway minding my own business when suddenly a great light appeared in the east and I thought what the fuck is that! Blinded, I ran into said light knocking (as I came to know him later) Mr Flynn into the canal where he subsequently suffered severe shocks due to an excess of voltage. M'Lud, if I'm guilty of anything it is of saving the night sky from this madman. I rest my case."
Hmmmm...

comet flynn, streaking through the night sky?
Comet Flynn, hey, I like that. Streaking across the night sky, blazing in the heavens, shooting up... sorry that's drugs... drinking myself into oblivion, oh yes, Comet Flynn lived fast died, er, fast, er, bugger... Comet Flynn, yeah...
Actully, you look like Christmas, Dan.
Have you heard that in Tameside on the one hand they are turning down the street lights to save money and at the same time are running a competition for the best-lit Christmas-decorated house?
LOL Guilty as charged!
Great idea and very festive.
I like the way the photo has turned out.

A,
Nothing surprises me about councils these days. Have you seen the father christmas outside Manchester Town Hall? The result of too much overeating methinks.
Sandy,
Whenever I read your name it's John Travolta's voice I hear pronouncing it. Glad you like my photo.
