I have taken up photography over the last few years and have been teaching myself and experimenting with it ever since. I am very passionate about it and am learning more and more as I go..... I particularly love black and white photography and portraiture.

I am originally from Guernsey in the Channel Islands and am currently living and working in Ecuador in South America. I am a Primary school teacher so during our holidays, my husband and I have been fortunate enough to travel around other South American countries so you'll see lots of pics of them.....................

My kit:

Nikon D40x

Nikkor 18-200mm - every day lens (I hardly take it off I love it so much)

Nikkor 50mm - portraiture lens

Lensbaby Muse

I hope you enjoy looking at my pictures and I would welcome any tips (without using technical language as I have no idea what it all means).
