My name is Nessa and I am married to Mr. P. We live in the U.K and share our home with two house bunnies George and Beatrice and our once complete furniture....
I can’t imagine my life without a camera. I started out as a little girl with a very basic camera and then progressed to one with an automatic wind on and flash.....then my first SLR, a DSLR last year and now a Diana F+. Once I had stopped taking photos of ceilings and nostrils I progressed to cramming everything possible into a photograph. Then it was capturing my travelling years with my sister, but I wasn't brave enough to try the manual settings shooting with pricey films. Now with the freedom of digital I only ever shoot in manual and recently braved the RAW format and like it. I love looking at life through the camera lens. Recording moments that otherwise may be lost or go un-noticed. My style, themes and processing are evolving all the time and I love how that is very much inspired by Flickr. I am inspired daily by my loyal contacts, groups I belong to and surfing Flickr.
I always try and give credit if one of my photos is directly inspired by a specific photographer.
Thank you for visiting my photostream today.
Please do not use any of my photographs without asking first, they are copyright of ME. Stealing is very, very naughty indeed.

"Ness is a wonderful photographer and person to know. It has been wonderful watching her talents grow and develop on Flickr... and she was a driving force behind me joining myself. Since then she has encouraged me no end when I have become despondent at various intervals! She inspires me with her wonderful way of capturing images, all of which have a beauty and style to them which is both subtle and arresting. It feels good to be travelling on her photographic journey with her."

"I'm an avid admirer of Nessa's beautiful photos and words. She captures a variety of subjects and yet there is a consistent lovely style and elegance to her work. Her photos allow one to savor special and often unique details such as sunlight illuminating crumbs or the graceful shape of a pair of knitting needles. Clearly she is also a talented and artistic cook whose culinary images make my mouth water. Indeed Nessa's photos often exude a sense of contentment making her Flickr name especially apt!
Nessa is a generous soul and especially thoughtful friend who has provided me with much appreciated encouragement. She openly shares and honors her sources of inspiration and truly enhances the Flickr community. I feel so fortunate to be a part of her circle and have the pleasure of admiring her exceptional work!"24th April, 2009
