On my new blog catchup...

Hi guys! I'm really hoping that most of you have made the move over to my new dot com blog with me, however I will occasionally be doing these catch up posts for the next few months here just in case you haven't.

First up, I posted this years photoswap, I currently have over 40 participants, so if you're interested in taking part too, do join up.






And for the rest of this month I have and will be taking part in Susannah Conway's August Break including...

~ Photos taken with James Butlers Double Dip Toy Camera ~

~ Double exposures from the Lomo Lovers film swap ~

~ Scarborough Harbour and Scarborough in Purple ~

~ Looking up around Harrogate ~



For more of my photosand posts so far this month, check out my new blog!

Yup, you read that right, For the easily distracted has a new home!!!

 I would say that my site is currently at 95% done, I still have some pages to finish (and even start) but I'm impatient and I'm ready to move, so I would love it if you come with me.
(and I can imagine I will be tweaking it forever...)

I will be leaving this blogspot page as it is for now but in a weeks time it will redirect to my dot com page.

Harrogate in the sunshine...

Even though these were taken last month, the sun is shining today in Yorkshire, so I thought I would share the sunshine further. Compared to Knaresborough the Jubilee celebrations in Harrogate were quite subtle, I did have fun trying to spot them and take photos of them though.

Camera: LC-A Refurbished
Film: Kodak Portra NC 160

This past weekend...

Was relaxing, hurray! 

I finally got my hair cut short, bought some more wool and consequently finished my first ever set of crochet granny squares (I'm hooked, ha), I even started connecting them together too, its awesome.

I also finally found clothing with birds on (it's a cute skirt and it was in a charity shop!) and I took my new double dip plastic camera by James Butler out for a spin and met a new cat friend in the process.

Hurray for relaxing weekends! 

p.s. If you're interested in learning crochet (I only started a couple of weeks ago) this post by Alycia is a great starting point, it gave me the kick up the butt I needed to actually make something rather than talk about it, thanks Alycia!!

p.p.s. Nanna, I might take you up on those knitting lessons now :)

You can call me...

An author!
Woohoo!

 

There I am, I added the arrows so you didn't miss it.

(it's on Amazon so its official!)

{An excerpt from the book in the latest Gadchick Magazine, the book has reviews of all new apps.}

So what did I write?

I wrote a guide book for one of my favourite online magazines, Gadchick,
for Android phone photographers.

Even though I predominantly use my film cameras, I ALWAYS have my phone with me and I love using it for spur of the moment photos along side my film cameras or in situations where film isn't really practical. As well as tips for better android photography, I tested 30 different camera apps and included my thoughts on each which was actually a great process for me as I learnt to appreciate my little phone for so much more than its calling/texting abilities and to embrace digital photography as a different way to express myself.

You can now buy your own copy from Amazon for your Android or Kindle so if you have an Android phone please check it out, and if you do get it, let me know what you think!
