Wintery Summer Leys

Hi !!!
I love going walking, particularly over Christmas as it is a nice way to spend time with family and friends. I went on quite a few walks around Christmas and here are photos from one of them when I went to Summer Leys Nature Reserve.

 

I can't resist a photo with some brambles and barbed wire in it

 

 

I know this photo is nothing special but I love the composition of it

 

 

As I have said before I love how electricity pylons look in photos 

 

 

Have a Wonderful New Year - I hope you stick to your New Year's resolutions and I Hope to write again soon !!!

 

Lit up London

Hi !!!
I have just got back from a day out in London. I got a late (ish) train there and then went to The Crypt Café for lunch. After lunch I walked to The National Gallery to see the exhibition on Rembrandt, then I walked to Café Concerto to have tea and cake, the cake was gorgeous and the place inside looked amazing. I then had a wonder round London, it was very busy around Oxford Circus and everywhere looked very festive.

Painting on a Denim Jacket

Hi !!!
For an art project I used Magritte's surrealist designs and painted them onto a denim jacket. This jacket worked perfectly for my art project and I feel I made a normal denim jacket more interesting, yet it is still very wearable.

Also thank-you for my friend for being an amazing model !

 Hope to write again soon !!!

Red-ish Sky at Night

Hi !!!
I love taking photos of sunsets. I think they look especially nice with a silhouette in front of it, particularly this tree, every time there is a sunset I stand outside and take a photo of this tree, I think it looks perfectly proportioned and makes a lovely picture.

 Hope to write again soon !!!

Horst & 39 Steps

Hi !!!
I have just been to London to meet up with a friend and we went to the V&A to see the Horst exhibition, he was a 1930's photographer who did many covers for Vogue. Afterward we walked from the V&A to Piccadilly Circus, where we had a lovely meal at Tibits (a restaurant where you serve yourself then pay for your food by weight). After that we walked to the Criterion Theatre to see 39 Steps, a family friend was acting in the 4 person cast. I really enjoyed the play and would recommend seeing it.

 

The courtyard at the V&A

 

 

Inside the shop at the V&A there was a box of butterfly clips and I thought they made a beautiful composition

 

Hope to write again soon !!!!
