Meadow Hall
My old iPhone 4 needed a repair so I went to the Apple Store in Meadow Hall, where, for a reasonable cost, they exchanged it for a re-manufactured replacement. This was a great deal from Apple as the replacement has a new case and battery – giving us a nearly new iPhone, which Diana is going to use.

Sky photos
There was a good sunset this evening.
Then it got better.
I needed another sky photo earlier today for a presentation Octagon is giving tomorrow.
Horse Chestnut Bud
This is one of the hubs from the felled horse chestnut tree.
I used the Camera+ app for this shot so I could split the focus point (the bud) from the exposure point (low down in the frame in the darker area).
In the next step, I used Photogene2 to make the colours more vivid by applying one of the standard colour filters. I then rotated the bud to a more interesting angle. The final step was to crop the extra trees from the shot.
here is the original shot
