    Pure

    As soon as I saw the word Pure for this week’s Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge, I immediately thought of the pure white snow and clean landscapes of Queenstown in New Zealand. This was the first time I’d properly seen snow and played around in it. My friends and I had a great time throwing…

    My Week on Instagram

    Hmmnnnnn, interesting. Instagram really shows what’s going on in my day-to-day.  It was a cold weekend of catching up with friends, and a really cold week of desperate early morning coffees, dinner with colleagues and rain, lots of rain! This last image is a black and white one that I posted on Sunday and then…

    Hello and welcome to week 12 of Contemplation. I hope you had a good week last week. It was very busy as seems to be usual here lately. On top of a busy week at work, it was another full weekend, but no camera time unfortunately. It’s been raining pretty steadily for about 5 days now,…
