Searching For The Light

Hi!
I have only really discovered my interest in photography in the past few years. Probably because my parents always guarded their film camera from me (in my hands half the roll of film would be photos of our cat!). I like taking photos to share with others things I have seen or noticed but so many others just pass by. It is a general rule of thumb that I take my camera everywhere. As Murphy's Law would have it, I always see great photo opportunities when I don't have my camera with me!

I haven't chosen a particular area of photography to focus on which is why I have a range of different photos on my stream - landscapes, portraits, macros, animals, b&w, sepia, etc, etc.

One project which I worked on last year was Paint! a collection of self portraits in which I painted myself in various patterns, colours, etc. The book can be found here =)

I think it nearly goes without saying that please, do not use my photographs without my permission and also, please do not add me as a contact if you have questionable content in your photostream or in your favourites. Thank you =)

    "I don't write many testimonials but I just had to say a few words about Nic. She is a joy to have as a contact and always leaves positive and humourous comments but its her pictures that I find enthralling. She is so very creative and prepared to push the boundaries......I really do enjoy her work immensely."

    "Once upon a time I stumbled into Nic's photostream and immediately fell in love with her creativity. Anyone can take a picture but taking the time to come up with different concepts is what separates Nic from the rest. Her stream is always full of surprises. I am honored to be her Flickr buddy. =)"

    "Thought it about time I put something here about this amazingly talented young lady
    I only know Nic from being here on flickr, but I have enjoyed her photos from day one. You never know what you're going to find in her photostream, so everyday I look forward to seeing what her great 'eagle eye' has captured on camera for the day.

    No matter what mood I'm in, there are always photos to bring a smile, gasp of amazement or simply to touch ones heart. But whatever it is, seeing it will make your day that little bit better.

    You can see that her camera and her creativity is very important to her just by looking through her pictures!

    Yes! Nic is one wonderful young lady, full of inspiration and she is always finding ways to take photos of every day things and making them interesting and beautiful. She sees the beauty in things others would walk past or tread on.

    I would say that Nic herself is just like her photography - full of curiosity, fun, generosity and full of life.

    She call's a spade a spade and I admire her for that.
    She is truly a person you would enjoy having as a friend.

    Thank you Nic for sharing your daily life with us, you are an inspiration to us all, even us oldies.
    You are great!
