2019 Top Ten (plus one, again)
This year’s question: is it pathetic that Adventures in Wonderland has turned into an annual top-ten-photo blog? Perhaps I’ll do better in 2020. Recent history suggests not, however. Anyway, on to my favourite ten (plus one, as usual) photographs of … Continue reading

2018’s Greatest Hits
As promised, 2018’s top eleven photographs, since every year I’m blatantly unable to reduce the list to just ten. Also as promised, for once I haven’t waited for over a year to post them. Saturday night in ZhengzhouUnusually for me, … Continue reading

A little preparation – the 2013 Honda Indy Toronto

A few weeks in May (condensed version)
Gosh, it’s been a while. Things have been happening, but blogging has not been one of them. In recent memory, I’ve said I intend to post about more of my recent film camera acquisitions, and additional delving into local history. … Continue reading
Non-science hobbies (again) – the Honda Indy Toronto
One race winner, two cars, and three sponsor banners. Check, check, and check. Those who’ve been following me for longer than I’ve been a resident at Occam’s Typewriter will know that I have a passion – some might call it … Continue reading
