ok, so this is my blog(!). not sure how much time i will have to spend on here, but i'll try.

the focus is on my photography journey. in here i'll be posting photos i like, details of competitions i've entered...that sort of thing. as well as my frustrations about not being able to get that 'perfect shot'. expect a lot of that :)

before i set up the blog, i'd entered a few competitions, mainly on the Digital Camera World forums ( http://www.digitalcameraworld.com/forum/index.php ) but also for National Insect Week ( http://nationalinsectweek.co.uk/competitions/photo_competition.htm - yes, i know...) and the Matlock Bath Parish Council Photo Competition ( http://www.matlockbathparishcouncil.gov.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=192:pro-loco-photography-competition-2012&catid=47:competitions-a-events-2012&Itemid=100 ). i won one of the DCW weekend competitions with this shot (the theme was 'vanishing point') :

that's my only win so far...but at least i'm getting votes now :)
