This is the last photo I published to my blog in 2012.
A lot has happened in the months since then, and many moments were captured.
So… here’s my recap of 2013 in pictures…
January
I took my first 50 Week Photo, named “Steaming Mug Of Ice”.
Grant came to visit and we frolicked in the snow…
And I used a 5×4 camera for the first time.

February
We celebrated our 1 year anniversary…
And Dom got me some lovely presents…
… and the sun shone for the first time in months.
*
March
And spent time with my little girl.

April
Grant and I went to see and met Derren Brown.
And sipped free champagne for his 21st!
Oh… and I turned myself into a puppet.

May
And I watched a lot of Dexter… 🙂

June
I started rereading all of Harry Potter… (In the bath… ahem)
Summertime started peaking out of hibernation…
I went to Download Festival for the first time…
Plus Rammstein! (Among others)
And turned myself into an Elf!

Tried Jason’s amazing cocktails…
Drank yet more free champagne with these rascals!
Jason, Tav and Grant. 🙂
We saw Cirque Du Soleil: Alegria in London…
I made my first piece of pottery!

I dyed my hair back to its natural colour for the first time in 5 years!
Dom and I went on our first holiday, and my first one in 7 years!

My laptop died right before term restarted…
Some friends came to Manchester…
And my precious little baby girl sadly lost her fight with cancer…

Developed a little obsession with them…
Got dressed up for the Manchester Zombie Walk…

Spent most of my time getting the exhibition together…
Put up my first Christmas tree in my own home…
Opened my first exhibition of my work…
Went drinking after the exhibition with my fellow photographers…
We had our first Christmas spent together!
And I got Christmas bow ties for all the animals!
I finally got Starbucks to call me “Gandalf”…
And we saw in the New Year in Reading with my lovely sister and her boyfriend.

2013 was an absolute whirlwind. Some incredible memories created, new friends made, and sadly some goodbyes too.
I want to wish all my beautiful followers a Happy New Year, and I sincerely hope you all have a great 2014.
