And so the saga continues. After being introduced to various aspects of coffee in Europe, see back to my Café and the Continent Post, I thought it may be good to share my thoughts on the Canada Coffee culture as its certainly…. different. *** Normal Canadian Things I Find Weird #3 Canadian Coffee Culture Ordering Coffee – The Fast Food Coffee (Not sure if this is … Continue reading Normal Canadian Things I Find Weird #3
I’ve freaked myself out over wedding photography. After honing my instagram feed to inspirational photographers (who obviously use many assistants and lighting apparatus) I am geared up to add Briony-Molly Photography to the inspiring list.

Fortunately I got the opportunity to visit a couple of friends up in the Lake District and Lancashire Area. Hill walking has never been a main ambition of mine with the idea of walking up the hill means the inevitable walk back down. But I did it. My friend and I went to an exhibition at the Aberystwyth Art’s Centre that was about a man’s … Continue reading Snapshots #10: I Walked Up a Hill
I can not explain how much I love aquariums. Any size aquarium from the large sea life centres to smaller coastal centres and all those in between. My better half took me the Blue Planet Aquarium near Chester for me ageing another year and it was the best day out. Of course I took my camera along with me like I do on any day … Continue reading Photography Tips #10: Fish Tank
