Well this year is quite different. I have some really exciting things going on right now - some big changes coming in my life and I can't wait. One will be an event worthy of a post in it's own right and with some very special photos - watch this space...
As for birthdays I had one of the best gifts ever from my lovely partner Sarah. Not a thing as such but an extension of my learning. She has paid for me to complete the next photography course! The gift of knowledge and the opportunity to extend your education into something which has become a passion has to be one of the most amazing things anyone can give (although even this does not come close to the beautiful son she has already given me!). I am now really looking forward to starting my course in mid-September. I should have the opportunity to catch up with some of the friends I made last year and of course I get the opportunity to work with the brilliant Rob Luckins again (see my earlier post about him). I really can't wait.
As for the boys - well they have outdone themselves with a gift again. They got me one of Lowepro's excellent Slingshot bags so I can just get out and go. I already use one of their brilliant Vertex bags for carrying everything in and I needed something small and transportable. This is just the ticket and I am sure it will serve me well in the years to come. Thanks Thomas and Jack! Lowepro consistently deliver when it come to bags and carrying items and I never hesitate when it comes to recommending them.
Well - back to college - hopefully another A, although I suspect it will be a somewhat harder this time!
Intresting read, dont you just love the wonders of google! As someone who is starting their journey with Rob on the GCSE course, this has been a nice insight!
ReplyDeleteDid you do the AS Level?
Tom - Just seen your comment - thanks for stopping by. Google is a joy huh? Rob was a great teacher for me - never did start the AS but hope to next year - maybe we will meet then. Enjoy your course and milk Rob for as much of his creative and technical knowledge as you can. Have fun learning!
