I cant believe how much more growth there is after just one week. This week we were able to pick a couple of courgettes and harvest our first new potatoes.

Shutter Priority Photography in New York
I recently visited New York for a weekend break. I dont have an SLR camera (although id love one) but I do have a reasonably decent compact, Canon Powershot A700. What I like about this camera is its easy to carry around but it still has quite a few manual features to experiment with. I am quite pleased how these two pics turned out. See more on my flickr account.

Look at these fab paper sculptures. Bought as paper tubes from http://piperoid.jp/en/ you cut and assemble these little chaps without glue to create movable figures.

A Dandelion Painting
I decided our living room needed a bit of colour so I set about my first painting since college (7 years ago). I wanted something a little abstract but with some texture. I built up the canvas a little with texture paste first then glued on some beads on to finish it off.
