Eclipse

The word eclipse comes from the Greek meaning "The Downfall of the Heavenly Body" and historically they are believed to have negative consequences for leaders on the ground. These are my  photos of the Eclipse in England on 20-03-15 around 9am.

Autumn is Coming

The autumn sun is the most beautiful when it comes through the trees.

Welcome to Parklife

Goodbye University, Hello Parklife. 

Believe me nobody despises saying goodbye more than I do. The end of university is probably the biggest set of goodbyes anyone ever has to do, and as fun as the post-exams nights out are, leaving all your friends behind is as horrible as the hangovers the next morning. 

So as the biggest, and truly the best, final goodbye we all packed our most ridiculous clothes (and glitter) into the smallest bags we could find and headed off to Manchester, and to Parklife. 

I also decided to leave my trusty DSLR at home and bring out the newest addition to my ever growing camera collection, a Nikon SLR (of the most basic form) which I won for £30 off eBay. This turned out to be a stellar investment as the photos are some of my favourites ever.

Bahrain

As someone who couldn't possibly spend the rest of their life living in one place I fully understand the draw of living abroad. However, when my friends decide to pack their bags and leave this seems a whole lot less exciting. After all the tears had dried and they'd finally got on the plane the thought occurred to me that I had a home away from home, with a pool. Hello Bahrain sunshine…!

Egypt

I live in the UK and honestly this winter has been very trying. It has been constant cold and snow which is not irregular for England but this winter has gone above and beyond to make me feel miserable.

So I left England, I went to Egypt and I found (and thoroughly exploited) the sunshine. It is a beautiful country, there are parts of it which make it one of my favourite places to go, but there are parts of it which I don't like. The pros obviously outweigh the cons, the ornate temples and beautiful food and weather make it exceptional but there is a lot of unrest there at the moment and a lot of people living in conditions which are not ideal.

What I enjoy most about visiting new places is taking photos, maybe too many as in this week long trip I managed to rack up a whopping 850 photos, here a just a few of my most favourite.
