Welcome again. In this section, I will endeavour to tell you what I've been up to photographically and what future plans I have..
So far, this year has been quite eventful to say the least.... In February I visited the beautiful City of Prague. However, on my return to Luton Airport, disaster struck - my camera equipment was stolen as were many other items including my memory cards. All my precious images of Prague gone! I'm not going to elaborate on this incident, I have to put it behind me now. Things started looking up in March - one of my images "Spanish Dancer" was published in Digital SLR User Magazine. As you can imagine I was very proud and delighted to find it occupied a double page spread. May - I decided that a return visit to Prague was a necessity. I am in the process of uploading various images from my trip, I hope you enjoy browsing through them. Prague is a truly wonderful city - I hope my images do it justice. May has certainly been a hectic month - to find out just how hectic, please see below..... |

WHAT HAPAPENED NEXT?I was of course hoping to be able to tell you all about my amazing travels to South Africa with Chris - Unfortunately prior to trip I was quite ill and advised by my Consultant not to undertake any travel. As you can well imagine I was absolutely devastated. All the people involved, i.e., Digital SLR User Magazine, Chris Weston and Pentax were all absolutely wonderful however so as not to waste this wonderful trip one of the runners up in the competition took my place. The good news is that I am now completely recovered and it is my intention to visit my beloved Africa next year. THINGS ARE LOOKING UP
