I'm doing a Project 52 this year, I started on the first week of January (2012) and would love it if you followed along for my first full year in Photography!

Seasoned Designer and writer with a new found passion for photography. Proud web geek and all round good egg.

I began to take Photography seriously last summer, finding that close-up photography is my passion. I try to tell a story with my images though I still feel very much an amateur, and you'll usually either find me behind my camera or reading a Photography book!

I adore close-up photography and recently bought my first Macro lens (Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8), which has really opened my eyes to the world around me. Photography has turned me into a bit of a magpie - taking photos of objects that really interest me.

If I'm not taking photographs, I'm thinking about taking photographs.....

Kit: Canon 350D (my first DSLR), Canon 600D (I just upgraded to this), Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II, Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM & Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM.

I would prefer if you didn't invite my images to award groups or posted pictures/animations as they can be annoying. Please do leave sincere comments though and share the love!
