I'm married, and live in Twickenham with my husband Barney and our cat, Chester Copperpot.
I did three years of "photo a day" inspired by Allison Wonderland. Loved it, but now I'm just taking a "photo whenever"
I'm still very much a beginner, but I'm always learning - and I prefer to do this by doing rather than reading so I can't quote technical stuff, I just know how to make something look as I want it...
My other great love is running - again, I'm a beginner but I love it! I've just completed my first marathon, planning my next and also thinking about a triathlon...

Sorry it's taken so long to write. After doing a tribute shot to Winkle, I think I am in love with all her shoes and her house. Winkle's photos are original and so very cool and I love look at her newest uploads. Thank you for some fab inspiration. x

Read lessI love Wink's stream, especially her fab shots of London Town and her sp's. She's v talented. Keep it up xx
I always know when I'm looking at a Winkle original. There's a particular quirky style and humour to her shots that's really distinctive. She has an amazing knack for finding out of place objects, and taking great shots of them
Ahh Winkle, you popular lady you. It's no wonder you have lots of testimonials. The Winkle has a fabulous style and I just love her shots of London and her self portraits. An inspiration photographically and a lovely lady to boot.
I love Winkle’s distinctive composition and processing style. From gritty urban shots which make me want to live in London, to humorous self portraits, she has a unique and instantly recognisable style.
I can't believe that this woman can be so cool, talented and yet so lovely. She's one of the true "finds" of my past year, and is a huge asset to the group. Her shots are always a source of interest and inspiration. Go Winkle!
I love The Winkle's pictures and always keep an eye out for them. She has a fantastic style and eye for a picture and her shots always raise a smile. She is funny, caring and a straight talker which is wonderfully refreshing!
The epitome of cool. Funky shots, great shoes and envious holiday destinations! I get London envy looking at her photostream. If Winkle gives me a lovely comment, it makes me think I’m doing something right.
I love Winkle's style. Her photos are so funky, cool, glitzy, creative, glamourous and sometimes down right hilarious. Her self portraits are fabulous, who could forget the swooning ironing shot? Long may her photo diary continue!
Gorgeous, funny, clever, artistic, talented, affectionate... acerbic. Winkle is a woman of many faces and I admire every one of them. What I thank her for most is the sharing of her self-portrait project, which inspired mine and has helped me to achieve something like self-acceptance. For the first time in my life I… Read more

Read lessWinkle's shots are raw, edgy, bright, cool, funky and eclectic! Every day is different and I love seeing her experiment with different styles and colours. She has great taste in shoes, too, which helps. xx
I absolutely love looking at The Winkle's photos - her shots of London make me very jealous and I wish I didn't live in a poxy little village next the the Chav Capital of Europe (apparently) - though Big Cities scare me, her photos of it are just awesome and give a good insight into the bits you don't know about.

I don't say this about many, but The Winkle's photostream is one I actively seek out when I get back online after a flickr break as she is not only the epitome of cool (in my eyes!) but such an amazing photographer. She has such an eye for that perfect shot, and not surprisingly has had many explores in the 2 years since we started HPAD. Winkle, can you spread some of your magic my way please?
