I’m a keen photographer in the north east of England. I am having a mastectomy in a few days, and will be lopsided, hence ‘LoppyTog’.

I wanted to share the upcoming experiences without linking to existing social media profiles.
Hemispheric. City of Arts and Sciences, Valencia.

It makes me think of War of the Worlds, there is, I feel, a slight malevolence to it, especially as the light was fading, the sky was grey and it had just stopped raining.

I felt up to doing something creative and positive today, so I edited a couple of photos from last month’s trip to Valencia.
This a multiple exposure of a satellite.

So yesterday I had my mastectomy and targeted dissection of the axilla (armpit). It all went very well and I was home mid evening. Today I feel shattered. Four aborted attempts to put a venflon in my left arm!

Villa Carlotta, Tremezzina, Lake Como, Italy
I love how the open doors give a view across the lake to the mountains and let the light in

Happy New Camera Day

The first lifestyle adjustment after being diagnosed with The Embuggerance is this beauty. 400g lighter than my 5D Mk II and equivalent EF lens

It’s a beautiful, but cold day. I am doing some hard pruning of a deutzia, salvia hot lips, and something whose name escapes me but produces a beautiful mound of yellow in the summer. It will look bare for a few months.
