Happibun's photostream |

Hello.
Herein lies a collection of stuff representing my interests, and as a pictorial diary for my friends and relatives.
My father was a television cameraman, and photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, but I only started using digital a year or so ago. Even then, I only possess a very basic ultra compact in that format to capture those moments that you would have missed otherwise because one can't be lugging an SLR everywhere.
One day I guess I will go digital with my SLR too, but I can't afford it right now, and I'm still waiting for the right one to come along.
Anyway, the quality might not be great, and I'm sure that I'm pushing my little 'Snappy' to the limits of what it can do, but I kind of like that. It gives me a challenge.
I use natural light as much as possible, all shots are hand held, and most are cropped too. Processing is limited to basic tweaks in Picasa unless otherwise stated.

"Since this is a "testimonial", that's what I shall write.
Our paths do not cross as often as I might wish for,
I can't really say why that doesn't happen more.
But what I do know of Happibun is tht she is like
champagne bubbles; always effervescing.
No small soul is she. Happiibun has the kind of
spirit in her that would make you wish that you had
a kid sister just like her. I know I do.

Ian Hayhurst says:
"Jo's photography is an extension of her humour,
an observational, informed wry wit. Where some see proportion, harmony and contrast, Jo sees juxtaposition,irony and ironing.
Jo's take on life and it's living and the creatures we share it with (or eat) are a nucleation point for lively discussion and a good belly laugh. I relish the moments I spot something new from her in my contacts photostream."3rd June, 2008
