October 24, 2014 – glossover.co.uk

I have wanted to dive all of my life and not too long ago I finally took the plunge and went for it, I have loved every moment of it but one dive stands out for me.

So while I was more than happy to make bubbles my other half was not quite so keen, in fact her exact words where “who in their right mind would want to do that”, after a couple of months of me having fun she decided that she would give it a try in the pool, a few weeks later she did her open water and we where booking a holiday to Egypt together.

This dive happened in Holbrough Lake in May 2014, it was the first dive we did together after my other half qualified as an Open Water diver and was just fantastic.

It’s all good

I have always liked the “Scraping Back Time” photos that I have seen around so I thought I would give it a go.

I am currently working in Guernsey one of the Channel Islands and the only part of the UK that was successfully occupied during the Second World War so I thought I would try to create one of the time images, I only have my phone with me for the of the modern image but it did quite a good job.

I need a better understanding of post image manipulation in GIMP / PhotoShop (I still have not decided what one to use) but this is the outcome, it could do with a little more of what is going on today in the image but it’s not too bad for a first try.

Note: I do not know who took the original photo of the march but if you do I would be happy to credit them.
