I had my first camera for my 10th birthday - a Kodak 120 - and have been taking photographs ever since. In fact, some of the old black and white photographs I've put on Geograph were taken with this camera. I became interested in Geograph in 2005 when I saw it mentioned on the ePHOTOzine website. It has made me look at my surroundings in a completely different way. I have taken many photographs which I would not have done otherwise. As well as new images, I have also used a lot of photographs from the archive that never saw the light of day. Those thousands of photographs I have taken over the years are now being dusted off and sorted out. I also have the dubious distinction at one time of being the only woman on the "Most taken in a Day" Leaderboard with 258 images taken on a visit to Lindisfarne on 31 March 2009. However, I am now no longer on the board with the prolific contributors we now have. I am pleased to have been asked to be a Moderator.
I enjoy photographing sunsets and sunrises and evening and night photography. Here is a link to a Gallery of some of my Sunset Images:
