Say cheese! [actually, say cakes!]

When a friend asked me to take some pictures for her new cake business I didn't hesistate to say yes, but then the fear set in. What if they end up looking like diy snaps, what if I get the style wrong, what if I set the camera wrong and waste the whole day with blurred shots etc!

Anyway, a couple of weeks of worry later it is all done and thankfully I pulled it off. The 'client' was very happy and I actually quite enjoyed the process :)

It was my first real attempt at doing reportage when the last cake was being decorated and trying to set each cake differently certainly stretched my imagination but anyway the proof of the pudding is in the eating [sorry], so here are a couple of pictured from the day

P.S. The payment method of cupcakes [the ones in the pictures] was gratefully received by all of us four, even if A could only look at them!

Trip to the park

Yesterday we went to the park for a play and a picnic. Then on the way back H wanted to check progress on the cinema.

Red sky at night

While his bath was filling, H and I watched this beautiful sunset

It got me thinking about some other sunsets I had seen around the world.

Tasty!

Mobile phone cameras have developed so well over the last coupe of years. Look at the detail captured in this picture taken with my iPhone 4S. Yummy!

Autumn watch

This leaf made me think that autumn is upon us.

Not long now until crisp leaves, misty mornings...

...and Christmas!

Colour Splash!

I have been experimenting with Colour Splashing and I have surprised myself with how well they have actually turned out.

Tilt shift

Note to self, tilt shift is cool and I must take more pictures with which I can do it!

We four took a stroll through the deep dark wood

A lovely Sunday morning stroll through the deep dark wood.

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo...

The four of us had a great time at Noah's Ark Zoo Farm in Bristol today. We saw some brilliant things (and some brilliant things saw us!).
