A picture of my self and my best friend in our costumes ready for "a winters tale" we havn't performed it yet. October the 17th is our performance in the gaiety... I am playing a boy prince in the first half but i Die half way through so become an old shepheard for the second half.. and my friend plays a queen.

testing paint

ok here goes... to see how this works, A recent photo i took of a pair of footprints on the prom at peel beach (west coast of the island)whilst sat having a milkshake with a friend one lunchtime. The beach was teaming with summer time adventures children, dogs, parents, sandcastles and the tide.

sorry guys

Im sorry for any madness of not having any photos/ pictures recently. My Photo shop doesnt seem to want to let me copyright my owrk. it is making me angry because i have so much to show. i will have to somehow try to find another way to do this..... maybe Paint will let me.

MANX GIRL(mum), brother (joe) and myself out and about.

My mum (look on this link for the story. I'm not very good at telling stories. http://loulee1.blogspot.com/ )., brother and myself went for a wonder on a beautiful saturday afternoon with 2 cameras and a mission to have some fun.

This is the photo i was taking.

the abandoned looking farm that looks like its seen better days.....



at the back of the reservoir. Joe was venturing out amongst there somewhere.



joe decided to toboggan down the slope on his tummy only his jacket for protection. MAD NUT.



I repeat...... MAD NUT



the daffies in Ballure... though the first 4 shots had mum and her big pink fleace in them.



Do any of you remember the big steps from one of my first blogs on this link? well theres my brother climbing down them. Now joe is about an inch shorter and im half his width. imagin me stood there. THATS HOW BIG SOME OF THOUGHS STEPS ARE.



The path back towards the bridge i was stood on taking pictures of the steps.



Yes. i Made sure mum got out of my way before i got my shot out from the cave. the 3 others she was walking into or my brother was messing about in the cave.



Thankyou for looking at my photos.... but again. MANX GIRL'S blog on the same subject is more detaild.

HAHA look. Bruv looks like an ant against that wheel... He is 3 inches shorter than me. and im 5 ft or there bouts. Meet Lady Evelyn you will see her sister in a little while. but these two beauties are the largest working water wheels in the world. Evlelyn is sat and happily turning in the old washing grounds where all ores got a good cleaning before they went for selling... I'm getting good at this history thing.. if only i could write my art essay though.




Meet THE LAXEY WHEEL. or The Lady Isabella.. Yes Lady Evelyn's sister she still pumps away... and it is a main tourist attraction along side its little mine up in the valley which you can still go a wondering down, as long as you wear a hardhat. Oh and mind your head.

Mum Baby Bruv and myself went for a bus ride to the old mining village Laxey on the east coast of our Island South of our Home town of Ramsey. On our Random Wonderings through the Laxey glen and crossing paths with 2 Beautiful pieces of victorian enginiearing.i took pictures and my brother decided to shout abuse at local wildlife and live stock..

some wheels from the mining trains

BEE and ANT.. 2 cute little trains that pull a little man coach and small trucks for hauling ore from the mines. BEE (at the front) has recently been re built and they are both ready to steam up for good friday's activities. they start their anual trails between their little shed and an old copper mine carrying tourists and locals alike to see how handy they really are...

my pride and joy... my dads mate took a few pictures of me with my new light up poi not long before xmas i think this one is my fave..... what do you think>?

another eek moment

Last summer (2008) a week after my 20th birthday bash of staying awake for 24 hours and busking. My drama/ performance group went to perform in Epping Forrest... (about 4 hours sailing time and another 6 hours in a little stuffy mini bus "fun"). The same gracious weekend and place my most fantasticaly (mad) ex boyfriend dumped me... (Yes i know not a good time or place to dump a girlfriend). Heres me SMILING on the very last day with my mates and my ex alll in one picture... and Yes its the little midgit in black with the hat on at the very front in the middle. My mates woudn't let me hide.

Tahdah.

I didn't take these photos. infact, they are photos of me.. (screams at the thought). Well, in rehersals for a veriety show i was in. A youth worker (also photographer) decided to come to final rehersal t watch the show and take a few snaps. he litterlay only gave me these photos in the last few days.... enjoy the masters of me and my poi. Well lack of..... (I've been performing with poi for nearly 4 years)

Yoda

"ah, Away put your weapon" says he.
"AGHHHH. MAD CAT ON THE LOOSE" says I.
Litteraly a nutcase but very cute and can be cuddly when not being treated like a chiwawah by ma sister.

awwww lil baby
"Look. I know you're cute but if you are going to pose, Gerroff my work!!"

Harley Quinn

the oldest of the 4 at 16 yrs old. big old softie but tends to keep to herself when it comes to other cats. she used t have a brother named Davidson but he got ran over when i was about 7

POLLY

My cat Greebo

my beautiful Hunk Greebo. 8 or 9 yrs old.. he has a twin sister Polly (possibly the next set of pictures). He is 1 of 4 cats in my dad's house

SEAGULS. the root of alllll evil.

meet the culpret of waking me up at the crack of dawn at mum's flat... now this is only one of them... theres about 2 or 3 of them... One we have named CRASH.. because he has one leg and crash lands on the roof. Now this CRASh creature. I have seen many times. but not managed to catch him with my camera yet. *insert mutley muttering here* daft thing goes somersaulting off the edge of the roof and just manages to catch flight before he plumets to his death. I will get him on my camera one day. I WILL


now this is a sigt worth seeing in Ramsey. The view to the west from my skylight at mum's flat. Its beautiful. Did Babooshka tell you that the sky is forever changing in ramsey... Iver the hill there would be clear skies then next minute it would be coverd in a bank of mist.. I dont think we ever have the same sunset though... clouds do like covering what we would like to see... even 10 meters infront of you sometimes.

My hiding place

On my way to my hiding place is a pretty pathway. Well it is a public garden. But it is usualy nice and quiet when i go a wondering up there. Meet the path way from Ballure Beach (the iron pier) to Ballure Gardens. I'm going to show my 3 best photos on this entry.

oo A little stream

follow the path and across the bridge (the bridge is just out of sight .


and up the stairs that make me feel im in a giant's world... oh.. dont forget your wellie bobz

I would say my best

Meet the mooragh Lake at 4 pm on a beautiful but cold friday. This picture was on a cold autumn day in 2008. I was out for a walk with my Mum (manxgirl).

Here goes

Now. Im not as good at photography as i would like to be. But I try. Now, some of these photos are about a year old.. and alot are similar to "A photo a day" from the Ramsey pictures on another blog i have seen on here. But please take note. "I HAVE NOT COPIED AND PASTED". I promice..... Im not going to add them all at once. Only 1 or 2 at a time. And once i have ran out of photos i will just add them on when I have taken some. I might do what a friend suggested and take my camera everywhere with me. Take pictures of anything Arty Or that make me smile. Then select 1 or two favorable pictures.... Does that sound good?
