I want to change the world one smile at a time!

I wouldn't leave the house without my small brown dog and camera. Charlie and I go walking most days within a ten mile radius of our home and after the initial ball play we begin to 'hunt' and sniff about for 'the picture'. I spend a lot of time on the Somerset levels and have a bad case of trench foot. I am starting to get webbed toes and feel totally at home out on the moors. I feel so lucky to be a spit away from all these wonderful wide spaces crammed with birds, flowers bugs and wee beasties.

I am also a singer currently performing with 3 different acts; a 10 piece soul band called the Orphans, a funky rhythm and blues band called the Jury and a piano/vocal duo called Sun Dog Days. With this one we have a recorded a beautifully laid back album inspired by the Somerset Levels. Check this link if you'd like to hear any of the tracks from the 'LEVELS' www.sundogdays.co.uk/music/

Kit wise I started with a Lumix Panasonic TZ5 compact camera and more recently I have upgraded staying with Panasonic Lumix I use a G3 which is a Micro Four Thirds rather than a D.S.L.R..This keeps it light and compact, just what I need as I always have my dog with me! I also treated myself to a Panasonic Lumix G Vario 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 Zoom Lens especially for wildlife photography and love it to bits!

I used to paint watercolours but I seem to have replaced that for the time being with photography.

I am learning all the time and would be grateful for any information on classification or photo tips as I am still an amateur.

I really hope you all enjoy looking through my collections as much as I have creating them.
