Hugh & Gill Lenfestey

Hugh and Gill are standing as Douzaineers for St Pierre du Bois and asked me to take some portraits of them. So I went down to their house with all the gear (not that there's that much). We took quite a few so that they'd have a selection and these were the ones they chose:

I like them. Although I like this one of Hugh more, mainly because he's not standing as a Douzaineer in this one:

There's three seats available and four candidates, so it'll be interesting to see the results, especially seeing as both Mr and Mrs Lenfestey are effectively competitors.

Another party ...

Fireworks 2008

We went to La Hougette with the Lenfesteys (no, the other Lenfesteys). Preceeded by hot dogs and succeeded by chocolate fountain. Lovely evening.
Of course, the trick about taking pictures of a firework display is not to miss the whole thing by looking through the camera, which is why I only have this one:

And of course these were a little easier, as the subjects remained static for a period equivalent to the stuffing of a face.

Recycling

We all went on a tour of some of Guernsey's recycling facilities week before last. Really interesting stuff. Cara went to Grandma's house, but Jonah came along. I think the best part for him might have been the car crushing. Come to think of it, I think we all liked that bit.

And here's some of the materials that we saw being processed:

The metal recycling facility was certainly the most photogenic.
