The roses in the garden are now fully in bloom so I thought I’d share a few pictures of them. I adore roses. Their blooming is always a sign that summer has arrived, even if the weather doesn’t necessarily agree.

When I was looking through the photography 101 pictures for my favourites for the Weekend 4 gallery I realised I had quite a few photos … More Photography 101 Gallery 2
Show Parade in happy fulfilment the fruits of labour, cherry-picked from a host of entries as your own best in show.

Unfortunately I’ve been … More Photography 101 Gallery
