Snap happy!

Hello all!
One New Year resolution that I do intend to keep is to start snapping again.  I really enjoy photography and when we first moved over to the States, I will admit to getting carried away and photographing everything "American" I saw - fire hydrants, school buses, mail boxes - all the things that were so different from the UK.  And as for the car shows.................... well, I hate to admit how many photos I have of cars, car fronts, backs, sides, lights, every conceivable angle possible!  However, this last year it seems all I have been doing is photographing cards so I intend to change that this year!
                 I do manage to get several dozen shots of my nieces each time I visit England and I thought I would share a few of them with you.  They're not technically perfect, far from it but taking photos of little ones is not an easy feat so I tend to snap when I can :)

                  Hope you like them..........








             As you can tell, I'm a big fan of B&W photos!  They just seem so much more appealing with portrait shots.  If you click on my Flickr badge over to the right of my blog, you can see some more of my snaps - I would love to know what you think or if you have a Flickr portfolio to view.  Thanks so much for popping in :)
