Lulu-belle Ramsbottom...cant wait for christmas!'s photostream

I have started putting all my photos into this account. My other accounts were full now, and I would lose photos by adding more than the 200 free photos.

My other photos can be viewed here...

I like getting out and taking photos...trying to extend my 'subject matter' beyond my cat and flowers! But, the truth is, I like taking photos of my cat and flowers. They dont answer back and just 'be' for the photo without any expectations of what the photo will actually turn out like!

I like also to edit and 'pimp' photos, I havent had a lot of time for doing so of late, though.

Leave NOW, if you dont want to hear the following!

If you invite me to add a photo to a group that Im not a member of, and the group is by invitation only....PLEASE, send an invitation to join as well...why do people expect that I'll be quite happy to add my photos to a group that I can not even access?!!! Hello???!!! And if you're an admin who invited the photo to be added in the first place, and who can moderate the applications to join a particular group, couldnt you just process the application to join???!!! I'm sort of over the people who fancy themselves as being 'extraordinarlily exceptional', when in reality, their photos lack any sort of real substance!!! Not saying that my photos are 'extraordinarily exceptional', but I'm way over the people who have aires about themselves!


I used to really enjoy flickr, but it seems that it is filling up more with people who are uninterested in what I see as the true spirit of flickr, and rather attracting people who are more interested in self promotion or for the purposes of stealing one's photos! (really, you just need to look at the stats to see how many of your photos are being linked to somewhere that you havent given permission for them to be linked to!).

Please, ASK if you would like to link my photos to any external website... This can be arranged, with adequate credit back to my page, however if you are someone who does not appear to have a bonafide flickr account, I dont know if I'm going to be keen on you linking my photos anywhere else.

I like leaving comments and do so on MANY photos...feel free to do the same in return, even I enjoy getting comments!

(Hops off soapbox, and pushes it back under the table)!!!
