I've been interested in photography for a while but as a single parent of teenagers, I didn't value the need for some 'me' time and so admired the work of others rather than indulging myself.

In July of this year (2012), I finally decided to make the leap and purchased my first digital SLR- A Nikon D3100. Photography is something I do purely for fun and I'm loving every second of it.

As I hoped, it's given me an excuse to carve out some time for myself over the weekends to just go 'somewhere' and take photos of 'something' and I hope to learn along the way.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my images, please feel fee to add comments or critique. I hope you'll return and find continued improvement over time.
