Alton Towers

Posted on: 19 September 2009

Just a quick post as I haven't done so since the start of the week. I went to Alton Towers today. Took the old SLR along for the ride. I didn't get many snaps, but this is one of the ones I liked.

Oblivion Surprise

Taken with my D40 and 35mm 1.8G lens. Photo pretty much straight out of the camera, very slight exposure tweaking.

Oh, and since I did go to Alton Towers... the best rides (subjective of course):

Oblivion
Rita: Queen of Speed
Spinball Whizzer

And as a closing note it seems theme-parking (it could be a verb) has become a popular pastime amongst the unemployed Brits of today. At least from what I could tell, that was the overwhelming clientele visiting Alton Towers on an average Friday. I suppose the 2.5 million of us have to go somewhere.

On that note, job hunting is relentless.

P.S. My apologies if this lacks in coherence. I'm tired.
