Winter solstice & Christmas and spring are well behind us and summer is just around the corner (21st June 2025). Plenty of rain to start 2025 and now a virtual drought since early spring with promised rain mostly avoiding the area!

"Candid photography is snapshot photography that focuses on spontaneity rather than technique, on perfecting the immersion of a camera within events rather than focusing on setting up a staged situation".

Photography can/should be fun & not overly technical, so no questions re equipment please: Love to catch the moment and hopefully show people something special about themselves, people are at their best when they are unaware of the camera, although my long lens is a little hard to miss !

If you feel you need to comment on typos/spelling or to remind me that flags are up the wrong way, you are on the wrong page! - go to GetaLife.com. Also hate sites with overly complicated rules; just want to share with like minded people not post one, like 5 and enter this weeks competition; I have seen easier games shows.

You may appear on my site for the best of intentions but if you want to be removed or even want a copy let me know as I usually oblige.
