I am starting to look for a new home. I will be backing up my stuff here from today. Results of my investigations to follow ... so far, almost everything looks like a fl****r clone ! Updates - 5th December 2016 ... Tried 23hq --- www.23hq.com/StoneRoad2016/album/list OK, but not as functional as here and I'm not convinced about security. Tried 500pix https://500px.com/stoneroad looks like a fl888r clone and not fun to use. will have a look at smugmug and zenfolio tomorrow…

Progress on current projects and images from elsewhere ... these images will be uploaded as soon as I've caught up with the backlog in the previous quarter - partly caused by spending a considerable amount of time attempting to acquire more projects for 2017, as well as a short break in mid-August in the form of a trip to Norwich / Norfolk. Now able to start uploading these ... Batch A - 48 images (inc batch from "Little Moreton Hall"). Batch B - 53 images. Batch C - 39 + 48 images (var…

Now that I have completed the backlog of updates from the previous quarter, although I am still applying keywords etc to the images, I will move forward into the current quarter and make a start with July images.

Various images to be uploaded ... details to follow. Very busy so these uploads will be delayed for a bit. longer, my apologies. Still progressing the preparation of these backdated uploads, the delay was largely due to the compilation of tender documents that were submitted to an on-line procurement portal. As a very small and highly specialised organisation (run on a non-profit basis) we are severely disadvantaged by these portals, especially as we have to do a lot of un-paid work to compile o…

"At Work" images from January 2016 onwards will be mainly NER 70, NER 2853, the PQR convict van and the "Miller Fifer". "At Play" images - mostly the Miller in Whitehaven, the weather and various other subjects such as Ben de-Dog. These new uploads will be unlocked after allocation to albums and addition of keywords. Certain images may have incorrect capture dates, as using another, older camera which has yet to be informed as to the correct date. Batch A - 17 images, almost all "at play"…

Further uploads consisting of images from October & November 2015 are underway. Subjects include the Miller Fifer restoration and launch, the NER carriage 2853 project, and a number of non-work interests such as the farewell tour of XH558, a spectacular sunset, various animals, plants and places that caught my eye. Batch 1 (35 images - October & November) Batch 2 (23 images - November & December) Batch 3 ( 33 images - Miller Launch ) Batch 4 - ( 16 images & another 15 images as part 2 as just…
