Scudamore's is the largest and oldest punt hire company in Cambridge having been founded by F Scudamore in 1910. It's also known to us as 'the enemy' as Rachel works for my neighbour's company, Cambridge Chauffeur Punts! Normally speaking in May these punts should be all set up with cushions and tartan blankets and be sauntering up and down the river with happy customers. As it is they've taken the cushions and blankets out to keep them dry and there are hardly any out on the water. The river is flowing extremely fast and I saw one group out with two punters as it's so difficult to get up river. I'm glad Rachel isn't working at the moment - too dangerous if you fall in.
We don't have a beach or sunshine or half naked people to aid me in the artist challenge at the moment so this is my latest effort....
awesome - your editing really brings out the text, and I think it makes it look a lot better than it does in "real life"! (now I'm getting all philosophical and musing on whether editing a photo removes it from the realm of "real life", or enhances that life somehow...) I also dislike Scudamore's, although mostly because they're overpriced and as an alumnus I can get punts much cheaper from Darwin.
@lesleyallen There were some chauffeur punters out but not many - it's really hard work and very fast & deep so I wouldn't be surprised if they do close it.
Gorgeous - fav. I've found this in Picmonkey too (am I right?) - but haven't taken a photo to suit using it yet! I think it's particularly effective/dramatic for the right subject/photo.
