In my last Blog, writing to my mailing list, the theme American Gothic struck a chord. Anita contacted me and said her and her husband Barry were photographed to be a poster couple for the Senior Newsletter which I was complaining about. By co incidence she had also posed to imitate the American Gothic theme around that time. This was made many years ago and because of the article she sent me the photo. I said “Wow” wouldn’t this be fun to get couples or randoms to pose for me and make a gallery. So here is the beginning of hopefully many more photos to come. Please send me any photos taken with your mobile. I think the background should be relevant to your work , hobby or just something you are fond of.

Myanmar is probably my favourite of all the Asian countries to visit. It represents Asia of the past and the people are lovely. Their kindness and hospitality is genuine.

Its a shame the country is racked by war and corruption as the people deserve better.

The first portrait of the 5 girls is my favourite and reflects how lovely the people are. They were from a nearby village and were dressed up for a weekend outing visiting the viewspots of Bagan. Naturally being a helpful photographer in front of 5 beautiful women I offered my services. I even got one of the girls E mail and sent them the final image which they liked very much.
