Tumblr.

So my friend ~~forcefully~~ persuaded me to get an account on Tumblr. Now Tumblr has always been a very daunting subject to me because I thought you had to have an amazing packed full life and take great photo's to fit in on there. But really you don't because you can just re-blog post's, quotes ect. that you enjoy.

So here is my Tumblr account address go and check it out:

Shrewsbury!

Last weekend me and part of my family took a lethargic trip to Shrewsbury, which is the capital of Shropshire, as this is where my mother and her family grew up. Instead of writing about this holiday I thought I'd make a vlog whilst I was there. I was inspired to vlog when I saw my cousin vlogging our holiday to Norfolk, I did also vlog one of our later holidays to Norfolk but the software I used crashed on me ( Technology these days).

Hope you enjoy!

Camera Review- Fujifilm FinePix S1000fd

The Fujifilm FinePix S1000fd is a utilitarian looking, budget-priced, ultra zoom digital camera that looks and handles like a miniature DSLR.

The long-zoom class has ballooned from just a couple of models less than ten years ago to the absolutely bloated list of entries currently available, and that means each new extended-zoom model is obliged to provide something to make it appear to be unique in order to garner any notice. The only down fall to this camera is that I wouldn't consider it to be the best camera when taking general photo's, I'm not saying its bad because it is far from that. Evidentially it takes wonderful photo's of animals even on full zoom!

To this end, Fuji claims the S1000fd (which replaces the S700) is the world's smallest 10 mega pixel digital camera with 12x optical zoom.

Candy Kittens Competition!

I am a regular reader of the Candy Kittens blog (can be found on the Candy Kittens official website) and on the 17th of June they published a competition.

When I saw this I immediately knew I needed to enter this competition so I got to work designing my top. I came up with two different designs and couldn't choose my favourite so I thought I'd make them properly on a computer and decide then. I used a variety of different software to achieve my final designs ranging from photoshop to simple windows publisher.

But when it came to choosing I still couldn't choose, so I entered them both! Here are both of my designs for the competition...

I have since realised that I never sent my designs to the Candy Kittens Facebook page- oh I hate Iphones they never seem to work when you wamt them to. But oh well there'll be another opportunity!

Anyway Candy Kittens have posted the three finislist and they are all truly amazing designs I wouldn't have stood a chance ahaha. Here are all the designs that got through to the final:
