I’ve not blogged on here for a while. Since getting back from Nepal things have been really busy – and I’ve had a bit of writers block. But I’ve been constantly reflecting on my time in Nepal, those I met and what I’ve learned/ am learning from it all.
This last weekend was a really exciting weekend for me photography wise. On Saturday night I took part in Scott Kelby’s third annual photowalk. The event is an international one. The basic premise is that groups of photographers come together in various locations (33,483 people took part in 1111 locations) and spend a couple of hours walking around that area looking for photographic opportunities. It was a great experience, and the first time I’ve gone out taking photos with people who are as passionate about photography as I am! I’ve been thinking about trying out Street photography in Scotland for a while now, Saturday was my first taste of it in Scotland, and I loved it.

My other exciting news is a first for me. Just after I returned from Nepal, I noticed that STA Travel were running a competition titled ‘ Exotic cultures’. I decided to give it a shot, I then received an email on Sunday morning telling me that one of my entries had been selected as a finalist. I was, needless to say, delighted! I’m still buzzing. As of Saturday it will be part of an exhibition in London. Details can be found here. Below is the picture that was chosen.
