I have a blog! I have a growing interest looking up people's blogs to understand what inspires them in what they do, so I thought it's about time for me to start my own.
The one thing which has really taken me by surprise in the past year, is how much I love photography. My boyfriend got me into it, by teaching me how to use his DSLR, which he used for his Architecture work. It got to the point that I wanted to use it so much, that over Easter last year I bought myself a Sony Alpha 330 DSLR. I must say, it has been one of the best purchases I have ever made.
In September last year, I went travelling to the far east for two months. We went to China, Hong Kong, Macau, Malaysia, Singapore and Japan. I love travelling, and I reccommend people to travel as much as possible. These two months, allowed me to really practice getting use to my camera. It's great when there is so much culture and inspiration around you all the time.
When I got back, I posted all my photos on Facebook. I had so much feedback, my friend Roland had suggested I joined Flickr.com. What a bad idea!....I can definitely say that I am HOOKED!! You can see how many times people have viewed your photos, they can comment on them and select your photos as favourites of theirs. Its also a great way to pick up on ideas for photo shoots, editing and different techniques.
It really made my day today, because I found out that one of the photos I shot yesterday "Day dreaming" has made it onto Flickr's "Explore interesting things" page.

Most of travelling photos are up as well. You can really see how my skills has gradually improved!
This is the perfect track. I love Adele and all her songs. She has the most mesmorising voice which just takes you away that distant place, for you forget about all your worries.
