Sunset

Aren't sunsets just absolutely beautiful!

Mother Nature really does create incredible colours in the sky, they don't last long and you can miss them all together but they really are something to marvel at!

Sidmouth

After my last post I thought I would show you somewhere else I went whilst in Devon, and that was the beautiful Sidmouth. (In one image you can literally see the rain coming in!)

I thought Sidmouth was a beautiful place, and just like with a lot of Devon it is highly photogenic!

There is just something about this picture I find very special!

Think I might have to get it printed and framed.

The cliffs around Sidmouth are something to marvel at!

See what I meant when I said you can see the rain coming?!

Clock Tower Cafe view.

Portland Bill Lighthouse

Everywhere in Dorset is so photogenic it pleases my photographer heart so so much!

At the very bottom of Dorset when looking at a map is Portland and at the very end of Portland is this lighthouse, your very stereotypically perfect lighthouse!

Surrounded, of course, by beautiful ocean you could spend hours and hours appreciating the view (20 going on 50), I would expect some seriously amazing sunrises and sunsets here.

Sometimes you just have to appreciate places you might not think to!

My Favourite Instagram Editing Apps

Instagram has been making a lot of changes to itself recently, but I will always love it as I will always adore photography.

Therefore I thought I would share my current favourite apps to edit my images on.

Snapseed

This app is absolutely brilliant for editing certain sections of an image.

I specifically use this to brighten certain areas of an image.

But there are honestly so many different things you can do on it, you need to get it and you will not regret it!!

Facetune

Just like a lot of other people who edit their images on their phone I love Facetune.

I love Facetune for it's whiten and detail tools, whiten is brilliant for perhaps whitening a background, clothing, the whites of your eyes or maybe even your teeth!

The details tool is one I use over the iris of the eye to make them stand out more!

iPhone Photos

If you aren't into more detailed editing of your images then look no further then the iPhone Photos app!

It has an array of filters, you can change the brightness, saturation and has a black and white feature!

Instagram

Finally, I really like Instagram itself for editing my pictures.

It's very easy to use, with some brilliant filters and the lux feature which I always add to my photos.

And when clicking on the "Edit" feature, again there's an array of options to choose from; I love using brightness, contrast, structure and sharpen on my Instagram's.

What are your favourite Instagram editing apps?

5 Dream Holiday Destinations

Now I'm sure we all have some (or a lot) of our own dream holiday destinations but thought I may as well share some of mine with you in case they're not on your list of places to visit!
Some of these are places I have visited before, but when you visit a place and love it so much I think it's essential to re-visit.

1) Bora Bora

The colour of that sea just means I HAVE to visit!
