I only discovered the pleasures of photography a few years ago, but now find it very addictive. I'm really enjoying my first DSLR, a Pentax Kx which I received in December 2010.

We live in Derbyshire not far from the scenic Peak District National Park in the centre of England. The Peak District is classed as an area of outstanding natural beauty and just seems to cry out to be photographed. I moved here in 1974 to work in the local hospital but we've only recently found the time to explore the countryside at weekends. I feel very lucky to live in such an attractive area which is full of interesting places to see.

I love long country walks, gardening, cookery, needlework, arts and crafts and visiting antique shops. I also thoroughly enjoy travelling to other countries, especially France and Normandy in particular, which has a very special place in my heart.

Thank you for all comments and favourites, every single one is really appreciated. I've found some delightful and really friendly flickr contacts and it's very enjoyable to share life experiences with them all.

    "I think Blue sky has primarily a sense of real beauty which is expressed very well in her photos. A love for country life and domesticity is also palpable and can be easily interpreted in her images so well captured and presented; no wonder her beautiful images are the source of inspiration for others to follow and imitate; she's a true artist in the real sense of the word capturing and transferring the essence and "soul" of the image for others delight and visual enjoyment...an excellent human being whose love to her family and country come across her work beautifully....
