A Cherry Blossom Affair

Posted on by 8 comments

Although the early Cherry blossoms have been battered about by the wind and rain they are still such a cheerful sight that I couldn’t resist another round of photos. The blossoms and petals that fell off the tree also provided some fun shots.

Hooray I’m a Cover Artist for the Art Trail

Posted on by 6 comments

As an amateur photographer who is still saving up to buy a DSLR and a macro lens I was totally thrilled that my blog icon image was chosen to grace the cover of the Uckfield Art Trail brochure and poster.

I was even more thrilled to receive a request to join in a ‘Taster Exhibition’ where the cover artists could display their work.  With just a few days left to the exhibition on Friday I have made my final selection of prints.

I have included a sampling below. I am rather anxious about being in the midst of professional and more experienced photographers but also extremely excited and I am sure there will be lots to learn.
