Close-up Filters

I was given a few 49mm, close-up filters for my 35mm SLR and I can't wait to try them out. I have put them on my 50mm lens and I will use them outside tomorrow; in the garden.



I currently have a colour film in the camera so it would be quite good if I could find some of the ladybirds that have been hanging around recently. If not, the forget-me-nots will be fabulous.

Thanks Bec, for my excellent birthday gift xx

Spring is here

I had a lovely trip to Edinburgh today to visit my cousin. Her hair was so vibrant and amazing against the colours of spring that I wanted to take a photo of her amongst the daffodils.
Fortunately, for me, she was very obliging :)

These are the first photos that I have taken since I lost all of my photos due to a large breakdown/breakage in technology. It breaks my heart to have lost so much important data. I have even lost my images of the wild salmon and deer. Sigh.

However, you cheered me up loads today so thanks Bec. You looked fabulous as always xx
