In all the years I’ve been taking photos I’ve always had comments that I am a good photographer. I’ve never believed it, my stock answer is usually, “it’s a good camera”. But maybe, at the age of 50 mumble mumble something, it’s about time I started taking note. I’ve also always been very private and possessive of the pictures I take, but I’ve been persuaded that it’s good to share so I have finally decided to bow to pressure and share some of my pictures here.
I don’t know all the technical details of taking photos; I just know what I like. I also like to experiment, sometimes the experiments work and sometimes they don’t. Most often I just point and shoot, but I have to be standing in a particular position to do so, poor Mr A is often told to move because he is standing where I want to stand to take a photo, but then he is used to my strange little ways.
I spend various amounts of time elsewhere on the web including a website, FB, Twitter, A Blog.......
July 2010
an update, after nearly a year of being a pro member and uploading photos I'm much more relaxed about sharing. So much so that I've since built a website solely for my photos. I've also started taking candid/street photography pictures since joining Flickr. Have to say I think I've become a bit addicted to it.
Please don't add invitation/comments with pictures. I find them incredibly frustrating when I am trying to catch up. Especially if I am catching up using my mobile phone
Unless otherwise stated my pictures are non-commercial cc If you want to use any of them commercially please get in touch with me.

"I've really begun to understand Sas's style with photography, and it really puts a smile on my face. Her candid's are fantastic, and really explore my imagination and thinking. I'm so glad Sas has come out of her shell to share her gift, and she should because she is very talented. Thank you Sas for putting a smile on my face with your unique style. :)"

"Sasatro
Is an amassing female street photographer i have seen her go from being embarrassed about shooting in the street to a very accomplished street photographer who shoots at the same speed as me 600+ in 4 hours a lot of street people images, she will also make people feel at ease if taking there shot an chat to few she has developed a ferocious appetite for street and is ready for almost any type of shot. i am proud to call her a friend and look forwards to more of her street work."14th April, 2011

"I am happy to admit I am one of the people who has, in the past, commented that the pictures Sas takes are 'good'. She definitely has that ability to compose a shot (just ask Mr A - he has to get out of the way for her to do it!) We have been friends for a few years now - photography just being the latest in a list of common interests. It took me a while to lure her to Flickr, but I did it in the end - I'm sure Flickrites will enjoy her pictures as much as some others of us have done for a long time."
