The Big Picture

This is the first of a new series of posts that I'm calling The Big Picture. Basically every Sunday I'll post a selected picture from my archives. I normally scale down photos for the Blog to save space but for this series I'll post my pictures at the biggest resolution I can, hence the name of the series.

Why am I doing this, I hear you say. Well there are several reasons but its mostly comes down to time. I'm a painfully slow writer and each post takes roughly an hour (sometimes more) to put together, and like most men with chores to do and kids to look after, I often find I just don't have time to sit down and write every day. What I tend to do is try to keep a couple of days ahead of myself with some pre written posts so that at weekends I can use something I prepared earlier (yes, I'm a child of the Blue Peter era!).

As I mentioned in my Showcase article a few days ago I have on occasion spent time blogging when maybe I should have spent time gaming or painting instead. So I made a New Years Resolution to paint more and game more and to facilitate this I need to make more time out of my time. So every Sunday I'll be posting a Large picture and a few words instead of a longer post that I'm maybe I'm not quite happy with.


I took this picture at the Broadsword show in June 2004. The game being played was "War of the Worlds : London Stands Alone" by North London Wargames Group. This game won Best Participation Game at Loughton and Best Created Game at Salute 04.

  2. It eases the pressure off the old grey matter for one day! I find it a lot easier to write during the week (usually in my lunch break) but at weekends I barely get time to sit down, let alone write something. Besides I have hundreds of show pictures just waiting to be dusted off and brought into the light!
