My very first blog!

Hi!

I've always wanted to have a go at this and so here I am!
My main reason for starting a blog is to show off my newly found love of photography. I'm very much the learner but have always had an appreciation of the landscape. In the past I enjoyed painting and drawing but photography is so immediate that I find it extremely gratifying to see my results as soon as I get home.
I also enjoy experimentation with images, until recently using Picasa and PaintShop Pro, but since buying our new computer I have been using Photoshop Elements. In order to further this compulsion to 'mess about' with images, I've been taking a class on how to use Photoshop.
Living as I do surrounded by the stunning landscape of the Welsh borders, I have no end of material on which to focus.
