Over the following few months, I used to be in a position to get pleasure from a interval of sustained images with the digicam as I took a sabbatical from work visiting Wales, The Lakes, Scotland, Northumberland and Iceland. That point additionally included two photographic workshops.

The success of my shift to the Actus MV during the last 12 months has been pleasing, nevertheless it bought me pondering. It was time for a retrospective.
