Last wednesday I spent an extremely chilly afternoon in Lancaster with my lovely friend Jo from Joanne Spencer Photography . We had a wander through Williamson Park in the sunshine, compared photo notes and got snapping with some quirky props!
We had a good giggle and got a few strange looks from passers by, but it was so much fun! There will definitely be more shootswaps happening from now on!
I've also been experimenting a little with some vintage style actions and editing techniques- would love to know what you think!!.......
We then went home for a nice warm cuppa to thaw out!
Would love to hear your comments......

Lazy Days - Winter Sunshine
Happy New Year! 2011 already!!
Have you made New Years resolutions this year? Normally I say I'm going to try and be tidier, or more organised, or eat healthily, and normally these resolutions last a few weeks and then I resort back to the messy, unorganised, chocolate eater that I was before :)
So this year I've decided I am going to try and take more pictures! I know this sounds obvious, I am a photographer after all! But I don't mean do more photo sessions, or take more shots at weddings - I mean take more photographs for me. I've got out of the habit of taking my camera with me wherever I go, or just going out to see what I can find to photograph - basically taking photographs for pleasure rather than work.
So.....from now on, here on the blog, you're hopefully going to see more of my personal posts which will document what I get up to on my days off, or Lazy Days!
Those of you who are fans of my Facebook page will remember I ventured out into the frost just before christmas to get some pretty pictures of the 'Big Freeze'. If you haven't seen them you can do here . Well, this afternoon, I had the urge to get out there with my camera again and decided to head across the field and see what I could find. The sun was really low in the sky and was shining through the trees, creating some amazing colours and pretty glare - interesting to see how the landscape has changed since the ice disappeared.
Here's what I found....let me know what you think..........

Love being out in the fresh countryside air, but glad to be back inside in the warm now :)
Back soon for more 'Lazy Days' installments
