Autumn is upon us

It is hard to believe tomorrow is October already, time flies fast when you're an adult. It's been very mild, we haven't had heating on yet.  Christmas stock has already hit the shops, I can't bear to go past it, it's September, I wish they'd wait till December, Christmas would be more special. On more positive note, new series of various are coming...

South Downs

I spent my Sunday afternoon walking dogs on South Downs with my SO and his father. It was very misty, we couldn't see the sea, though we could see the lighthouse far far away.  We walked quite far before turning around to get back to the car, yet the dogs still had some energy left. ...

When you dream of me, dream of nice things

A short photoshoot with Marta. I went to her place, she lives in a village. Country lanes, fields and forest, beautiful place to live. We'll do another photoshoot fairly soon for a very special occasion. I can't say much more, I already told you too much ...

Something different

Last week I've done profile pictures for everyone at our office and this Friday I will be doing  pictures of London Region staff. It was great fun and most people were easy to work with. I've spent quite a few hours editing them, I finally learnt how to airbrush properly, I don't usually bother with things like that.  I still need to find...

Interesting fact: a shark will only attack you if you’re wet.

   I bought tickets to see Sean Lock: Purple Van Man! Sean Lock is one of my favourite comedians and it will be  amazing to see him perform live. Woop woop!...  It's still a long wait, it's only in November, but the tickets are selling fast and I don't want to miss out, like it happened with Michael McIntyre's show. I wish more...

I hate beige. It’s the colour of death. Don’t wear beige; it might kill you

The other day I watched Fabulous Fashionistas- a documentary following the lives of six stylish women - who have an average age of 80. I turned this on for  fashion, but stayed for inspirational and strong women. I didn't expect this to be this good. One of them, Daphne Selfe is a model at the age of 85. And she looks fabulous! Colourful, eccentric...

Memrise

I've  recently discovered memrise. It is amazing website where you can learn so many things but I'm mostly interested in languages. I've started German course.  What I like about it is that it is fun and I actually feel like I  am learning something and a lot of it is due to the method they use: Memrise makes use of Spaced Repetition, helping...

I'm not enjoying my weekend, I've got a cold. Never mind, I've had worse. Good news is that I've been asked to do some photos again. Our company have recently added staff pictures from staff directory to emails, so whenever you receive an email you can see who send it. Great idea I guess, but it exposed many really poor quality and generally...

Nederland

As I mentioned in my previous post, I went to the Netherlands for the first time. My mother suggested to go somewhere, she said we could go to any of the neighbouring countries: Luxembourg, Belgium, France or Netherlands. I chose the Netherlands as it's closest and I have never been there before. I then had a task to select a town or city...

Deutschland-again

I'm back on the British land! It was  fun but short week in Germany but I enjoyed it thoroughly. I was there last April. I had so much  Lithuanian food cooked by my parents, many dishes I never make. My parents have a lovely rather spacious garden, so we had most of our meals  and tea there. It's fantastic feeling to have breakfast...
