trying to capture the world…my way

I visited the National Gallery not long ago for the first time and it’s one of those places I’ve walked passed many times but for some reason never thought to go inside. The National Gallery houses some of the world’s most famous paintings; Van Gogh, Leonardo de Vinci and Monet being my favourites among many others. I think it will be a place that I will definitely visit again, and seeing as you can’t take photographs inside it really makes you look at the artwork and take in the detail and history of them. For more information of what’s on see http://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/

African periwinkle

I really like this photo; a delicate, pretty pink flower against the dark green leaves and foliage. I think the contrast in the colours make it a striking photo and the sharp detail of the water drops also stand out. What do you think?

There’s lots of funfairs and markets around at the moment for the holiday season, and it’s always fun to have a ride, take in the bright colours, lights and smells as you whirl.

Giant snow globe

I was in Central London recently and came across this giant snow globe, which I thought was very creative. The statue in the centre is there all year long but they’ve created a snow globe around it, for the winter season

Robin

I saw this pretty robin resting in a bare bush recently and was really pleased to be able to get quite close and capture a good photo. You can see how the colours of it’s feathers blend in perfectly with nature at this time of year, so was especially pleased I managed to spot it
