The first photoswap photos...

Sometimes I doubt why I put the photoswap together each year - I'm not the most organised person and on top of that, every year someone gets disappointed by either the mail or their partner and waiting for the films to be sent often the most tense part for me... but then the photos start to appear in the Flickr group and my heart skips a little beat and I remember exactly why I put the swap on.

So here are some photos from the swap so far that make my heart skip and remind me of the excitement and joy of film.

Eep, that face! Photo taken by Clio and sent to Amy.

I love these colours! Photo taken by Michelle and sent to Kelly Ann

The light is so pretty! Photo taken by Jazzy and sent to Nadine

So simple and stunning! Photo taken by Kelly Ann and sent to Michelle

There are many more photos in the Flickr group and I've loved looking through them all, I think that I get just as excited when they start to appear as the swappers involved :)

You can call me...

An author!
Woohoo!

 

There I am, I added the arrows so you didn't miss it.

(it's on Amazon so its official!)

{An excerpt from the book in the latest Gadchick Magazine, the book has reviews of all new apps.}

So what did I write?

I wrote a guide book for one of my favourite online magazines, Gadchick,
for Android phone photographers.

Even though I predominantly use my film cameras, I ALWAYS have my phone with me and I love using it for spur of the moment photos along side my film cameras or in situations where film isn't really practical. As well as tips for better android photography, I tested 30 different camera apps and included my thoughts on each which was actually a great process for me as I learnt to appreciate my little phone for so much more than its calling/texting abilities and to embrace digital photography as a different way to express myself.

You can now buy your own copy from Amazon for your Android or Kindle so if you have an Android phone please check it out, and if you do get it, let me know what you think!

Redscale bunting...

There wasn't as much bunting in Scarborough compared to Knaresborough but I still couldn't help taking photos of it when I saw it and this redscale XR film with my LC-A is currently my most favourite thing!

I'll apologise now if I've been a bit scarce in the blogging community this week - I've been extremely distracted creating a new home for my blog (its bigger, better and quite frankly, awesome!) which I'm hoping to share soon... mainly because I might burst with excitement if I don't share it soon haha. Anyway, I hope all is well with you all - I'll try and catch up soon.

 Have a great weekend! 

Camera: Refurbished LC-A
