so, the world didn't end...

...but the term did :)

The end to a year is always a strange one for me...Melissa likes to think back over the year and set herself goals and targets for the next - I'm usually just glad to have survived another 12 months(!). It's been a long hard slog up to Christmas at school, but now I have 2 weeks off - I may even take some photos, you never know.


I've just completed a project to make a calendar for next year (one of those postcard-sized-one-sheet-per-month jobs) - an idea from one of my stack of photography magazines - which was fun, and more interesting that using the photoshop templates...honest (ok - so I only realised there WERE templates when I had already completed the project, and I wasn't annoyed...not even a little bit...).

However, I have also discovered that the best thing about being a wannabe photographer is that you can palm off your photos to friends and relatives under the guise of Christmas presents, and all it takes is a few minutes to order from photobox, and a quick trip to IKEA for frames. Bonus!

Have a Happy Christmas :)

ps I'm getting a new lens for Christmas, so hopefully incentive to take more shots!
