It's been a while... almost a year to be precise. But I have finally found my way back to DA And what a year it's been! Lots of sailing, holidays, work and even some gardening.

I'm not sure about you, but I'm thoroughly fed up with winter now! I was going to plant some spring flowers last weekend, but then it started snowing again. So now I'm "planting" those flowers in my journal, together with other spring-themed images. Goodbye winter, hello spring!

I know, I know, it's been almost a year since my last journal. Life has a habit of getting in the way when all you really want to do is procrastinate online! But a lot of things have happened in the last twelve months. I'm learning how to sail, I sold my old, trusty Sony Alpha 230 and a whole load of other stuff and bought a (used) Alpha 550. I photographed my first wedding, nerve-wracking, fun and incredibly hot (in Verona/Italy in August!) The flat has been redecorated and I'm planning to go back to uni, if the bureaucrats let me in (don't ask!)
What an exciting year! I do hope I can spend more time on here in the next twelve months, and I also want to give my gallery a bit of an overhaul. Lots of embarrassingly bad pictures from my early weeks on here, when I was waaay too eager to post stuff, without thinking first. They need to go!

40 Euros

Minolta AF 28-80/F3.5-5.6
bought together with the telezoom
as far as I can tell, no fungus
30 Euros

...is the name of my new exhibition, hopefully from mid-April here in D-Town. My second exhibition after "Faces" last year. Very exciting!

Hence the new feature: Bands/Concerts

My dear fellow Deviants,

I'd like to wish you all a very happy and fulfilling new year 2011! I hope all your projects both on-and offline come to fruition this year and I'm looking forward to seeing more amazing art here on DA.
Maybe you have some projects, ideas or even New Year's resolutions you'd like to share?
Here are some of mine:

1. Learn more about my art, for example by reading about photography or going to workshops.
2. Be inspired by others. I want to visit more exhibitions this year than I did last year, and I want to browse DA and other sites more to look at photographs to get me thinking again.
3. Set myself more challenges, like contests for example, to stretch my capabilities a bit more.

I think that's enough to be getting on with for now!
