Saved.

These tulips were due for the compost bin but were saved when I saw the intense colour and interesting shapes.

First shots taken with new toy.

Weighty matters

New toy, Nikon D80. I still can’t quite believe I’ve done this. I’ve been thinking about it for a while, but didn’t think today would be the day. Now I’ve got it I’m nervous to use it!

Putting pen to paper

My Parker fountain pen and Moleskine notebook. Along with a camera, they’re always with me.

Rainbows

Daffodils and CD, manipulated in Paint Shop. I’ve never tried anything like this before and it goes against the grain, but it was fun playing.

Today was a real struggle to find a shot. Rain, sleet and snow kept interrupting what little sun there was.
