A Week in Bath

Hello all, It's been quite a while! This week I've decided to do a diary like set of posts for each day I'm on holiday in Bath. Don't worry there won't be too much writing, although I may get a tad carried away every now and again, just because I'm loving Bath so much already! (We've been here 2 days so far so I'm writing this on a bit of a delay). So I hope you enjoy hearing about my adventures in the city and it may make you want to visit yourself!

Day 1 - Travelling. 08/08/15

There Isn't much to say about day one really, most of the day was spent in the throws of travelling (about 5.5 hours, including a stop). We stopped at Stow on the way down, which is a lovely town in Gloucestershire.

When we finally made it to Bath, we had a quick look around the property, unpacked and had a cup of tea in the beautiful garden. I had already got my camera out at this point so I could take pictures of the view and garden, however I got a bit side tracked by the wildlife and ended up photographing that instead!

Windmill Walk - 30 Days of Wild

Good morning :) I hope your weeks have been great! I'm a bit late publishing the rest of my 30 days of wild posts... oops! Never mind, better late than never! This is week 3 of the 30 days during June, whereby I was challenged to do something wild everyday, which I think I managed to achieve! However I decided to only post about one, once a week that I enjoyed the most so here is week 3. A walk to a windmill and around Lincoln where I came into contact with many wild things! This post is more of a photograph one so I'll leave the writing now until later. I hope you enjoy the photographs. 

Owen and I found this windmill before the 30 days of wild challenge in the middle of houses in Lincoln! Seemingly random, however it turned out that the street used to house only windmills of a large variety and this one was the last one standing, and working! I didn't end up going up the mill, unfortunately due to my phobia of heights, so no photographs from inside I'm afraid. I did however get to buy some of the flour they produce and it is wonderful for making scones! I shall have to do another post on that soon.

Outfit of the week #2 - White Floral Dress

Its really starting to feel like summer now! I checked the weather today and its supposed to be hot and sunny all week! Yesterday I spent the majority of the day in the garden practising my photography skills and reading. It was a wonderful day, and during the day I realised I wanted the outfit I was wearing to be my outfit of the week; my white floral dress bought last year toward the end of summer. Due to when I bought it I wasn't able wear it that much, so I was thrilled at the chance to wear it in the hot balmy weather.

Dress - Last years summer collection dress at new look. 

Hat - My Granddads (he left it by accident!)

Footbed Sandals - Next £20 (a great cheap alternative to Birkenstocks)

Watch/activity monitor - Misfit wearables, Misfit shine. Amazon £64.67

I had a lot of fun doing this shoot, all of the photographs were taken using a tripod and self timer on my Nikon D3100. There were a lot of mishaps; blurry images or me not being in the right place or too much light making me pull weird faces! The ones I chose were the better quality images, however I still think some of them could be better focused, and definitely better posed! I felt a bit more comfortable taking these photographs than last time, as there was no one around but me, however I still felt uncomfortable looking through them and editing them, hopefully like I've seen other bloggers say, it will become more natural.

p.s In some of these photos I tried my best to have a straight face, but as I've mentioned before I have a bit of a resting bitch face so I'm not really that mean... its just my face!

Going home

Hey guys, I know I literally just posted about how I'm going to be attempting everyday blogging, well over the next few days I won't be able to post because I'm moving back home after spending the last year living in Lincoln. It's going to be a hectic few days so I just thought I should post a quick notice/apology post. So yeah sorry about this but it's part of student life! 

Any other students moving back home this weekend? 

Attempting Everyday Blogging

Since finishing my degree and having more time to blog I decided to start trying to blog every day, I'm not sure if this will become a permanent thing over summer. I have absolutely loved blogging every day this last week and because I've not being blogging that often for the past few months I had a good amount of content stored up in my journal. I'm hoping I keep my creative juices flowing enough to post every day, and if not I will attempt to keep a good schedule going to blog around 3 times a week maybe more! So just a short one today, see you tomorrow!
