Met up with A, A and H today on the Quayside this morning for a shoot - had a great laugh and got a few shots.

May 14 ~ Full Bloom

A beautiful peony in full bloom.

Not much to report today; it's been fairly quiet. I'm still going through images from the last few shoots I've been on, so there may be more photos to come.

May 13 ~ Peony

Bought some peonies and an allium at the florist's today; I couldn't resist the heady aroma. The pinks and purples look lovely together, too.

May 12 ~ Tea Lights

A departure from my recent stuff. This is a bit more back to my comfort zone. I've been enjoying my adventures in photography a great deal lately, and believe it or not I found it difficult to return to the comfort zone. Didn't feel quite so comfortable - so I guess my photographic adventures are working!

May 11 ~ More Birds of Prey

Another from yesterday's shoot at the Ben Potter Bird of Prey Centre near Thirsk, North Yorkshire.

May 10 ~ Intensity

Travelled down to Thirsk with members of Enjoying Photography for a day photographing birds of prey at Ben Potter's Bird of Prey Centre. What a fantastic day it was!

May 9 ~ Quayside by Night

A. and I headed down to Newcastle's Quayside for some night shots. Had hoped to have more folks with us so we could have more of a roam - safety in numbers and all that - but due to the following day's outing to Thirsk for the birds of prey shoot, we were the only two brave (stupid?) enough to go out.



May 8 ~ The Last One... For Now!

The final image I'll post (for now!) from Monday's shoot with A. at Barter Books in Alnwick.

May 7 ~ And Another

Yet another shot from the trip to Barter Books with A.

May 6 ~ More From Barter Books

Another from Monday's shoot with A. at Barter Books in Alnwick.

May 5 ~ Reading Room

Headed to Alnwick today with A for our first shoot at Barter Books. What a fabulous place; a bookworm's treasure trove. It's a virtual Aladdin's Cave, full of volumes upon volumes of books on all manners of subjects. It's a place where visitors are encouraged to pick up a book, curl up in front of the coal fire, and have a good old read. Heaven. Have a look at their website. The first shot is the main reading room, and the second is looking up from my vantage point flat on the floor in the children's area.

May 4 ~ Minuscule



One single dandelion seed, and one solitary droplet. Had to get in close with my close up filters on my macro lens!

May 3 ~ Purple Rain



With apologies to Prince!

Yes, it's more from Sunday's walk around Gateshead and Newcastle.
