Ooh I've started a blog!!

So it's now become apparent I lack any ideas of my own so I've jumped on the blogging bandwagon and decided to share the craziness that's in my head whilst on a mission to photograph the perfect nature shot...for those of you that know me that'll probably be a Red Squirrel!!

So to start me off I'm posting one of my  favourite Red Squirrel shots thus far in my quest (that does make it sound so exciting)

This shot was taken at Dodd Wood, Cumbria. Armed with a bag of nuts and hope in my heart, I managed to convince my other half to sit in the freezing cold in the hope that the Reds would be tempted by some hazelnuts..we were rewarded by...
To say that the appearance of this little fella made me very excited is an understatement!! It was like all my Christmases at once, like falling into Willy Wonka's chocolate river. 

Here's another of him checking out the nuts...

Anyway that's my first crack at a blog, I hope you like it...check back again soon when hopefully I can think of something more to say :)
