hi there
Photo Basics – Off your phone onto your PC
How do I get my photos off my phone onto my laptop? I was asked recently, (when I say recently, I mean a couple of months…no…now that I’ve checked, I realise it was four months ago, oops) anyhow… ‘How do I get my photos off my phone onto my laptop?’ Great question! Honestly? I had
All the Good Words
I keep a daily word tally on my calendar. When I write more than 250 words each day for my novel, I reward myself with stickers, that say things like: Super Star, Nice Job, Good work, etc. It’s something I started last month so I can watch myself progress. For August, I set a target
The Boat Shed
A couple of months ago I entered a photo in a photography competition. Hubby and I belong to a photography social group. Our group consists of people with varied experiences; its amazing what we learn from each other. We go on photoshoot picnics and sometimes weekends away. Some of us dress in period costume to
Photo Basics, your Phone has Albums
‘You can create albums in your phone?’ my cousin asked me recently. ‘Yes, you can organise your photos into albums. Searching for that photo is made easier!’ I must admit, there was a time it had never occured to me to categorise my photos in albums. It makes so much sense to do so. ‘Let
Photo Basics using your Phone
Me and Photography … I’m not an expert. I am sharing what I have learnt because sometimes it’s easier if someone tells you how, rather than having to look for the how to’s on a technical website. My blog will reference the iPhoneX because that’s what I own. You can get decent photos using other
He gets to live another day
From 1993, my creativity came in the form of sewing fancy dress costumes. It started out as a hobby sized business. I’d make the costumes and hire them out for a small amount of money. It grew and became a fulltime business. Continuing until I closed the doors for the last time in February 2018.
I just wanted to share this…
Since starting my writing education early this year, I have discovered many avenues to learn the craft. You can do courses on writing, there are many out there; read the many how-to blogs about writing; discuss writing with like-minded people on the social pages, or listen to podcast interviews with authors. What they have
“What’s the point?”
“Can you vacuum for me please?” I asked my son recently. “What’s the point?” he replied. “Dad will just walk in with grass all over his pants when he comes home. and we have to vaccum two minutes later!” Yes well, there is that, good point. Look, I know my son’s answer was pretty lame
My Inspiration was…
I find it interesting about why people are inspired to write what they write. Inspiration is defined as i.The process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative and ii. a sudden brilliant or timely idea. My inspirations I mentioned in my previous post, The Creative Juices are on
The Creative Juices are on the Move!
A few months ago, an idea popped into my head about creating a blog. Original destination I am an amateur photographer: my chosen piece of equipment is my iPhone – that’s all. Some of my photos are good and it seems a shame to have them sitting on my phone. Sure, occasionally they go up
Protecting Your Photos on Social Media
Many of us don’t think twice about sharing our photos of our holiday memories, food, loved ones and those that relate to our businesses in Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc.. So, who owns our photos once they’re in the world wide web? What are our rights and how do we prevent image piracy? Copyright …In answer
