You can tell its Spring . . .

 . . . well, if you ignore the hail and snow of the last week or so, you can tell its Spring, anyway!

And its one of my favourite times to be out with the camera, even if its only in my own back garden . Lots of spring blossom about . . .



















. . . and where there are blossoms, there are one of my favourite subjects - insects .


























Burned Out!

A few weeks ago, whilst out with the camera, came across an abandoned and burned out car, at Worlds End.

I know, I know - not something to be pleased about, and I do hope the idiots responsible are caught - but, the colours and patterns created by the fire were visually gorgeous, and I couldn't resist taking a few pics . . .







Press Release Photo's

As part of one of this semesters assignments, I spent a fantastic day with  the  9 to 12 year old's from the Wrexham Branch of Theatretrain, during their rehearsals for 'Honk', which they performed in the Forum Theatre, Chester.

Afterwards, I gave copies of several of the photographs to Steve Davies, who runs the Wrexham, Chester and Mold branches of Theatretrain, and agreed to him sending them out as press releases, to several local papers.

The pictures were later published in The Chester Chronical, The Wrexham Leader, and The Big Leader























More in the Studio

A little while ago, a fellow student from Glyndwr asked me to photograph some of her art work, for a presentation she had to give.

Rebekah McEvoy is a second year student, like myself, studying Applied Art, and she brought several pieces into the studio for me to work with.  I really enjoy doing work like this - not only is it valuable experience for me, but its great to see some examples of some of the fabulous art created by other students.
