The coastal town that they forgot to tear down...

Porthcawl has also remained in my mind as one of my earliest memories. Porthcawl is a small coastal town in South Wales which once hosted an audience of British holiday makers in their droves. Today it is a tired little old show ground with the mundane quality of a William Eggleston landscape. Twm and I took our Level 3 students out for the day to capture some contemporary imagery. I took some I-phone snaps too.

Hey, it's been a while.

LEME

My affair with my I-phone gets more and more passionate by the day. I recently bought an app called LEME cam and like most photo apps, it has a retro/vintage quality to it, however I also like the fact that with this app you control the camera body choice, lens and film. Wonderful tilt shift amongst other things. Here's a few LEME images shot over Christmas and New Year.

Vintage Tea Party and Bake Day

Our little group of stitches decided to get together for a ladies day and thought a Vintage Tea Party would be a great idea. In the guise of true post-feminists, a day of baking, tea drinking and clopping about in high heel shoes seemed like a luxurious Saturday afternoon to us. We baked in abundance and shared recipes new and old. Quality time with a group of inspiring women!

It's Autumn

Swansea is more than Autumnal right now.
