(dunawori)

Sheila Laurens, from Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England, hosts or co-hosts the following groups:

1. All In, ‘Editing’ (co-host)
   “If You Like “ALOT” Of Editing In Your Works This Is The Place For You!"

1. Alphabet Soup (co-host)
   “Images from A to Z with weekly features based on a different letter of the alphabet each week.

1. Your Country’s Best (co-host)
   “Photography showcasing the uniqueness of your country. Include the location in the description of your image.”

I wish I was a “proper photographer”.
I love to have a record of the beautiful things that I see, for example when someone buys me flowers or when I go on holiday, I must photograph it.
.
I am always on the look-out for something interesting and I adore history and architecture
My ‘user name’ dunawori comes from the name of my house (duna = don’t & wori = worry) so I try not to worry about too much and I believe that a good sense of humour is essential !!
Smiling is so good for you and if you smile at people they will, more often than not, smile right back at you……. it’s infectious !!!
.
Most of my images are quite colourful. I like to have bright colours because I am colourblind – it runs right through my family !!!
.
I hope that you enjoy looking at my work, as much as I enjoyed making it
Thank you

wonderful images, love your sense of colour such as rio de san zane, love them

Carnival Masks . Venice

I saw these on a stall in Venice and loved them, I think there is something magical about masks.
The problem was the photo had price tags and batteries and all sorts of souvenir shop merchandise, so I had to make all that look as dreamy as the masks themselves. I hope that I have succeeded, it does seem to be quite popular and it sells quite well too !

Cataracts of the Nile . Egypt

I was in a restaurant on a hill with the sun going down behind me. I think that is why the light is so good.
It is my best seller here on RB and has had the most views of all my work.

Venice 8

I love Venice so much, it has such character and every day the same shot can look so different.
Every time you turn a corner, you can see such interesting things.
I like this because of the colours and it attracts a lot of attention so I think others like the colours too !!

Lower Gallery . Versailles Palace

Versailles was very interesting and beautiful but so many visitors mean that it is almost impossible to get a shot with no-one in.
I removed some people and a wheelchair from this and closed the door at the end of the gallery in PS.

Sunnier Than I

I love yellow and adore sunflowers!! I always say that they are a smiley face or sun on a stick.
This looked like an eye to me, so I played on the word I/eye

Country View 2

This is at the entrance to Acton Burnell Castle ruins in Shropshire UK. It looked a so romantic, I hope you like it as much as I do.

Frannie
