Christmas Decorations

I know it is the new year now, and that Christmas is well and truly gone, however I have taken all of these lovely photos so you will be seeing them!

These are some photos of decorations taken around the house. This first lot are some of the decorations that could be found at my girlfriend's house. They had plenty on show, but whenever I found any time to actually go and take photos round there, it was always dark and they just didn't look as good as they did in the daytime.

When looking at them properly on my computer I found that there are only two photos that could be used, which is a real shame! But here they are!

1. A birdcage filled with lights and baubles

2. A bow placed on one of the trees

Festive baking

Now that Christmas is over, I actually have time to post everything I took during the festive period!

Here are just a few pics of some cupcakes me and my girlfriend made. The polar bears and Christmas trees are hers, mine are the snowmen!

She used butter cream to make the majority of hers whilst I used royal icing and a load of food colourings to make mine. 

And yes, they tasted delicious, if not a little sickly!

Hebden Bridge

It has been at least a week from the last time I posted, which really is not good enough, bad me! However I have been spending time with family and friends etc. so it is a little more acceptable!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas period, and there is still New Year's Eve to come so the celebrations will still be going!!

I had my family up for a few days which included my two lovely little nieces which was a real treat over Christmas. We went on a walk to a little place called Hebden Bridge here in Yorkshire. If you watch the news then every time it floods Hebden Bridge is always featured as it floods so badly!

Anyway, here are 3 snaps I took whilst on our little walk.

Plenty more Christmas related posts coming in the next week or so, so keep your eyes peeled!

Lakeside Plants

My fourth and final post from Charnwood Water! It was such a good blog photo day! See my other posts from Charnwood Water here:

Anyway, usually I try to take a few photos from different angles for each subject, then pick which of those is my favourite to go on the blog. However this time it is different. I loved this plant so much that you get 3, yes THREE different angles of it! Wow! There are other plants here too like the ivy, but this one I have never seen before so I am showing it you now!

I like to think that I am creative. I am a photographer, play the drums, taught myself guitar and I design for a living (once I get back to my job!). I also paint. So this post isn't going to be about the photography, infact that is pretty bad seen as it was really dark in my room, but about hte paintings and drawings that I have produced. As you may be able to tell, I love popart, and I especially love painting it, so the majority of my work is in that area. Most of these paintings I must admit I have taken from pictures on the internet, and then adapted them on a graphics program to be more what I wanted to do!

1. In my bedroom at home - A Woman

2. in my bedroom at home - A Car across 3 canvasses

3. In my living room at home - A 1 Metre Square Cow

4. In my bedroom at Loughborough - A Mini

5. In my bedroom at Loughborough - Lego Heads

6. Sketch - A Woman

7. Drawing - 2 pop art faces (still incomplete because I could not do his mouth no matter how hard I tried!)
