Wimborne Bridge, originally uploaded by Dale Hayter.

Went out this evening to Wimborne to try and get some sunset shots. Couldn’t find anywhere and was quickly running out of time. Had to settle for here.

Hope you like

Holes Bay at Sunset, originally uploaded by Dale Hayter.

This is a photo from last year. Thought I would revisit it and process it again. I really like the last light as the sunset.

Were quite lucky in Poole to have such nice scenery.

Third Rock From The Sun, originally uploaded by Dale Hayter.

Went to Kimmeridge in Dorset on Saturday evening for sunset. There were loads of photographers down there so it was a tight squeeze.

However I did manage to get this picture.

Hope you like :)

Had to go back to Leopard as Plex doesn’t work properly. The remote is all over the place. Playback stutters. Not good.

Also within 20 mins of having it up and running Photo Booth Crashed!!!! It never has before.

Apple have certainly bigged it up and made it look very impressive.

Lets hope that it lives up to the hype and most importantly my order from Apple arrives shortly after the 28th.

What a load of crap!!!! *UPDATED* http://www.blackforce.co.uk/2009/08/20/bournemouth-roar-on-the-shore-2009-what-a-load-of-crap http://www.blackforce.co.uk/2009/08/20/bournemouth-roar-on-the-shore-2009-what-a-load-of-crap#comments Thu, 20 Aug 2009 21:57:21 +0000 Dale http://www.blackforce.co.uk/2009/08/20/bournemouth-roar-on-the-shore-2009-what-a-load-of-crap Amy was all excited about going to see the fireworks down Bournemouth Beach tonight. They were advertising it as a world record attempt. 110,000 fireworks in 60 seconds or less.

We got down there and Bournemouth was absolutely heaving. People clambering for their little space to watch the fireworks.

Everyone was asked to do a countdown shortly after the advertised time of 9:30pm. When we got to zero. Nothing happened. So the tannoy asked us to count down again. We counted down again. This time there was a crappy firework display for around 5 mins. I’ve seen better fireworks at Ashdown school on bonfire night!!!!!!!

Then came the record attempt. What a load of crap the barge lit up light a sparkler for around 2 seconds. Was so quick I couldn’t even get my camera up to take a pic. Then the boat caught on fire!!!

Either something went seriously wrong or it was badly marketed and peoples expectations weren’t met!!!!

Even their logo on their website indicates rockets. How much did this display cost to us the tax payer?

Roar On The Shore

A quote from the Bournemouth Website says

Set to be a heart-pounding, roaring, glowing, explosive event like no other – the launch of 110,000 fireworks in 60-seconds or less.. ‘Roar on the Shore’ is set to rock Bournemouth on Thursday 20th August 2009 at 9.30pm.

I’ll post some pics when I can be bothered as I didn’t get many as there wasn’t many good ones!!!

* UPDATE *
If you weren’t there I found a good vid on youtube that shows you the amazing record attempt.

Click here to view the embedded video.

Bet you wish you were there now.

The Bournemouth Echo is saying that the night was a success. Dunno which beach they were on!!!!
