This challenge is quite daunting and takes you well and truly out of your comfort zone. As photographers we are always behind, not in front, of the camera. This image is actually one of many (and let me tell you, there were many) photographs I took a few months ago. It was our local photographic […]

I enjoyed viewing your website and specially like the canvas one “A New Journey Begins” and your motto about life not having to be perfect.
