Enjoy all types of photography - focusing perhaps on 'Art' and Documentary....

At best, I achieve a combination of both in one image.

Am trying to build up a 'visual library' of ideas to inspire my students - so that they never run short of photos to try out for themselves.

Flickr is the best online community ever - people are just genuinely nice - probably because we are all creative, I think.

Oh yeah - love my contacts - VERY talented people!

    "Janet is certainly very clever and inventive in experimenting with photographing household substances, but the real point is that her results are just so downright beautiful. I hope her students know how lucky they are to have such a teacher (above testimonial suggests that they do)."

    "I am lucky enough to be one of Jan's students. She is a very talented, amazingly creative woman, with endless imagination and constant inspiration. No idea is ever too crazy, and she is always there to support it. Her work is original, creative, and I love it. I can only hope to be half way to the photographer she is! If I get there..I will be delighted. x"

    "Janet's universe is a never ending source of inspiration. That's why TiC takes a ride on some of her favorite light streams on a regular basis to float through these wonders - marvelling, giggling, and always turning back refreshed and smelling good..."

    Toni ya no está en Flickr says:

    "Cuando era pequeño me maravillaba viendo el interior de canicas de cristal con las que jugaba a menudo con otros niños en la calle.
    Ahora me maravillo viendo como esta maravillosa mujer hace esas fotos tremendamente buenas con cosas muy parecidas.
    Sencillamente me parece genial. Cada foto es una auténtica pitura, un universo lleno de constelaciones y planetas, la materia de donde salió la vida hace millones de años…
    Es un honor ver tus fotos, mejor aún, sentirlas.

    (english with dictionary, sorry)
    When it was kid I was astonishing seeing the interior of marbles of crystal with which it was playing often with other children in the street.
    Now I astonish seeing as this wonderful woman she does these tremendously good photos with very similar things.
    Simply it seems to me to be genial. Every photo is a autentic paint, a universe full of constellations and planets, the matter wherefrom the life went out does million years …
    Is an honor to see your photos, better still, to feel them."

    "I have been lucky enough to be one of Jan's students. Not only is Jan one of the nicest people one the planet (with a fantastic laugh might I add!) She is also one of the most talented and skilled people I have ever met. Her unique gallery is proof off her amazing mind. She is always inspiring me to think broader and push myself harder than ever before. If you haven't already looked through her work. Do it! Do it NOW! ^_^"

    "sometimes I get stuck - I can't favorite everything so I make myself choose - when to be honest I'd rather not!

    Janet's pictures are literally out of this world, and don't get me onto the colours! I just want you to know that this is one stream that is NEVER boring."
