I started my career in journalism many many years ago, since then I've been in the world of communications and marketing, NHS management and had a short spell in academia. But you know what they say, you can take the girl out of journalism, but not journalism out of the girl.

I love taking photos and telling the story. More often than not I say more on my blog.

Inspiration is in what I see around me and the encouragement I get from my Flickr mates, especially the Leeds Flickr Group.

If you want to use any of my photos, please ask me first. and tell me why, because as an ex-journalist, I'm terminally nosey....
