Profile
I live in Hampshire, UK and we have lovely countryside and places to visit. Recovering from depression I try to see the beauty in the world and so focus on flowers.
Flowers grow out of dark moments. (CORITA KENT, Moments of 1984)
I use a Canon A590 compact camera and recently have tried using a Sony A 200 DSLR.
My aunt “kalaryder” introduced me to RB and am inspired by so much of her work and of so many others.
I have added some of my poems here and also see details of my book in my journal.
All work© 2009 and proceeds from any sales to Breakthrough Breast Cancer.
