There is always a Plan B.....

Not everything in life goes exactly to plan...the key is not to get too down when this happens and bounce back. A way of doing this is to have Plan B (C, D, E....) by thinking about what you are going to do and what might happen and how you can overcome setbacks. Celebrate when Plan A does work:)

Our plan B this week...we were due to take photos at Greenfield Abbey; however, the weather had other ideas and it rained cats and dogs!! Our Plan B was Plan Bacon...a bacon butty, brew, and a chat is always a winner.

Photography session at Connah's Quay Docks

Today we traveled to the docks in Connah's Quay to take photos of the power station and road traffic bridge. We've included a few snaps below from our phones. The 'main' photos from the Canon camera will be processed and displayed at our Men's Art Gallery in the KIM Holywell Hub. 

Alun and Tim reminisced about the 'old days' of the dock and how things have changed. Photography is a great excuse to get out to somewhere new, or old, on your own or with some buddies to enjoy seeing the world a different way. Every photo tells a story and holds memories. 

Tim, Alun, Dave and Dave enjoying the view.

Some snaps walking to the docks.
