"You don't take a photograph, you make it." - Ansel Adams





I have now completed two 365's more or less back to back, I am so glad I did them as I feel my photography has come such a long way in a short period of time. I have also learnt a lot about editing in both Lightroom and Elements.

I still see myself as very much an amateur photographer who has so much still to learn. One day I would love to sell more of my photos, but until I get the time to put some effort into marketing my work, I will just continue the way I am - taking photos and learning new techniques and skills, so ALL comments, ideas and constructive criticism I would love to hear and would be greatly appreciated!

I live in Surrey with my husband and two beautiful children, a girl aged eight and boy who is six and I work as a Financial Director, so need some creative outlet from the day to day grind.

All of my photographs are (C) Copyrighted and All Rights Reserved. Please do not use my images without my permission. I don't mind you blogging them to say you like an image but please fully credit me. If you want to use any images for any other purpose, please contact me by Flickr mail.

If you add me as a contact - I love spending lots of time enjoying the inspirational work here on Flickr, and offering meaningful praise & feedback where I can. But having too many contacts can interfere with that enjoyment, well for for me at least. So please don't be offended if I don't contact you back immediately. If you are a regular contributor to my stream, then I will, in turn, visit yours & return the favour.

Please don't add me as a friend or family though if I don't know who you are, as I find it a little bit creepy... and if you do this and do not have a buddy icon or you have no images or content for me to view or have a lot of dubious faves, then I will most likely block you immediately.

I love experimenting with concepts and was so pleased when I managed to do a decent splash, each one is so different and they are such fun to do :-)



Another thing I love taking photos of are reflections



and my new obsession is macro
