Daily Panorama Noah’s Yard in HD
Okay, it’s not HD, but it this was done on an iPhone 4GS. Someone else’s iPhone 4GS with a nice clean unscratched camera.
This was photographed in the back room downstairs in Noah’s Yard, Swansea. It was a great sunny evening – if a little cold – and the little uns wanted an ‘adventure’. The concept of visiting a pub to one of our little uns is possibly the most exciting (and adult) thing in the world to do. I don’t know how we feels about wine bars, but I was reluctant to tell him that he’d been short changed slightly.
Whatever, he had a real lemonade and lovely time smashing hitting the keys on the old typewriter. The smaller nipper loved the cwtch seat and her juice. The wife had a ginger beer.
And me? Peroni… mmmmm.
Daily Panorama M Night Shalalalalala’s Non-tilt Shifted Village
Wish I’d taken a better pano here so I could have done a nice tilt shift on it to make a miniature village even more miniature.
Daily Panorama Ducks and the Disassembly of the Order of Nature Pt. 2
More ducks and ducklings. Simply cos they was well lush.
Daily Panorama Ducks, Ducklings and a Vertical Panorama of Sorts
It’s probably not my place to say, but I really like this, probably because it’s different to all the other PhotoSyntharamas I’ve done.
It all began with some totally loveable ducklings which we were recommended by a family member yo not feed as we would ‘destroy the balance of nature’. These were ducklings in a theme park I might add.
So, following feeding, the ducklings returned to their mother and the balance was restored. They all then snuggled (read ‘cwtched’) up cosy like and I began my panorama. I didn’t originally intend a vertical pano, but it worked out that way.

Daily Panorama Grass Boating (aka Preparing for Shark-Ridden Waters with a Cocker Spaniel as a Training Substitute)
Much frantic running about captured again. This time I had to try to keep up… And do did PhotoSynth.
I did quite a bit of relayering (ie retaking a particular part of the image) here in an attempt to obscure the emotions of the unhappy child in the canoe, but to no avail.
Daily Panorama ‘Locked’ in
Waited ages for the water to fill, only to discover that our shipmates operating the lock hadn’t closed the rear gate enough! It took a couple of local Bradford on Avon kids to correct the issue. Thanks!
Following this, we sped it, made some waves and got back in good time. It’s good to make waves on the canal at ahem… 6mph or 48squillion notts.

Katy Lou’s illustration of Star Wars in Draw Something. Love the Darth Vader vs Luke Skywalker here.
Brill.
Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci’s ‘Banana’
I’m not quite sure how this came about to be honest and although I could do some online research to work out where and who it came from, I must admit that the mystery of it is part of the appeal. I stumbled upon this on TV late one night many years ago – I think it was on S4C (the Welsh-language channel of Wales) – and, given my total obsessiveness with Gorky’s at the time, it was a real find for a major fan.
In last friday’s post, Binky specified that he couldn’t find Miss Trudy by Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci on the Playlistify thingy so I looked it up on YouTube and – as if by circumstantial magic (Non-fans will not be aware of the black magic of Gorky’s) came upon the following Banana playlist once again:
In essence, Banana is just a collection of home made music videos made on VHS at arguably their creative peak over the period of an EP or two and the Bwyd Time LP. As I say, I don’t know who filmed them, but it’s not important. What’s important is that virtually every song – and it is like listening to an album – is brilliant and from this you really get the energy and excitement of a load of kids who were loving playing music and entertaining even the great John Peel.
If you’re not digging the Gorky’s sound or feel like switching off, check out the 12 Impressionistic Soundscapes before you log off for an … ahem… slightly different experience (read ‘headmash’).
