Introduction

My name is Sophie Chessum and I am a budding photographer. I have been interested in photography for a long time and I have recently bought my first DSLR camera. I started this blog as a way of getting my photography seen by the world. Feel free to comment and let me know what you think. 

Nature Photography

This photo took me a while to get right as the dragonfly was flying around everywhere. Finally he found somewhere to land and I managed to get this picture of him. I am really proud of this photo as it is the first picture of a dragonfly that I have been able to take and I think it came out really well. This picture was taken in the Cotswold Water Park.

This is another photo taken in the Cotswold Water Park. I went on a walk along a disused canal with my older brother (who is also a photographer). When we got to the lock there was an overgrown patch of plants and flying among them were lots of butterflies. I managed to get a picture of two together in the picture.

This is my final picture from the Cotswolds of a tree stump. I am not sure what happened to the rest of the tree but I thought that it looked really different.
