Spent a lovely afternoon wandering around the Botanic Gardens in Edinburgh admiring the signs that say Spring has sprung - the snowdrops and the squirrels are out and looking beautiful. 

I recently bough t a speedlight for the top of my camera and theresults are fantastic! I'm hoping to do some product photography soon and these are just some of the pratice shots using the seepdlight - hopefully they'll get a bit better but I'm liking the initial results and enjoying practicing.

Yesterday I was out and about playing with a new fish-eye lense - the light wasn't great so I didn't get much of great quality but I like this one of the Castle and fountain in Princes Street Gardens. I like the 3D effect of a fish eye lense and look forward to playing with it on a sunny day!!
