Photography

I enjoy painting, more in an abstract way than purely representational, and I rarely ever draw, but I also enjoy going out with my camera and taking usually just random pictures of anything I like. At the moment I am focusing on the environment around me as that is what my summer project is for uni, so I have been taking photos for my work and for me to draw from before I go and brave the elements and draw in situe. So, here are a few of my snapshots....




Just to add that these photos were taken down at Whitlingham Country Park which is just outside Norwich near a place called Trowse..



At Whitlingham Country Park, there is a large lake which is used for many different activities and there are loads of ducks, swans, greebs, and many other birds to see and feed and be chased by...! There is also the wooded area which you can walk through which is nice on a sunny day, you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere its so peaceful.



The above picture, on the right hand side, all that green area was the bank which rose straight up at the side of me as I was walking down one of the woodland tracks, you can see the trees at the top of the image, they were at the top of the bank. I felt like I was lost in a rainforest (mainly because it was wet and muggy!)
Below is the main road through Whitlingham, well, its supposed to be a road but has some of the biggest potholes Ive ever seen!
