The weather was kind to us all and the rain held off so everyone could enjoy drinks and canapés in the beautiful garden at Layer Marney. To view the other pictures please go to my Gallery http://www.pbase.com/wakelin/nicola__jon
I have taken pictures of such weird and wonderful things recently, some personal, some private commissions and some joint ventures. From Proms and dance pics to bumps and hedgehogs! I find I don’t always have the time or permission to show all that I do as some people prefer to keep things private which is understandable. Here are some relaxed pics from The Colne Community School Prom night.
Colchester Academy held their Prom at The Weston Homes Stadium in Colchester on Friday. The young people made quite an entrance when they arrived in all sorts ranging from an armoured covered Army Tank looking thing to big old American Chevrolet’s.

Owning an Android phone I have recently found various camera apps which are just so fun to play around with. One of my favourites is FXcam. Having owned a very old Nokia for years, the change over has been quite a dramatic one for me. It’s not always practical to have a camera swinging around your neck, this app is fun and so easy to use. I really love how it gives a Lomo look, to see other Android apps check this out http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/03/15/37-best-and-3-wtf-new-android-apps-games-and-live-wallpapers-from-last-week-3911-31511/
Tuesday’s assignment was to take pictures of beautiful old wood, which is recovered from old houses, treated and recycled to use in other properties. The company ‘ Floors Of Old ‘ lay floors in private houses, schools, churches and galleries.

I am out most days doing wacky school photography, today I have a very husky voice reminds me a bit of Cathy Beale (Eastenders ). Too much shouting at the children in a good way of course, in order to get their attention you have to make a lot of noise and pull some weird ole faces.
If you are trying to get hold of me, please don’t be put off by my answer machine. I will pick up your call and get back to you as soon as I can…promise.
loving the top Cathy.
What a great event it was, if you missed it here are some pics taken at the preview evening…to see more go to my Gallery.
Thanks for stopping by…
Hiya,
Just to let you know I will be taking part in The Impact Art Fair which runs from this Friday ( 20th – 22nd ). Last year I had the pleasure to be invited by Tim Andrews to take a photograph of him along with over 100 other photographers for a project called ‘ Over The Hill ‘ . Some of the photographs from the project will be on display at The Impact Art Fair.
Tim suffers from Parkinsons disease if you would like to donate please follow this link: http://www.justgiving.com/tim-andrews2-overthehill
The Impact Art Fair is very easy to find, get off at the underground stop Angel ( Northern Line ) which is only three stops away from Liverpool street, look for The Candid Arts Trust, 3 Torrens Street, EC1V 1NQ.
The fair is free and only runs for three days from this Friday 20th – Sunday 22nd May. It is open from 11am – 6pm. Please come and support marginalised and outsider artists.
Thank you
I spied this little fella watching me as I sat in the garden and ate my breaky this morning.
