Her Photography

Christine took up photography to record the everyday of life on the land and has always loved sharing the ups and downs of daily farming life. She loves the light, colours and changes every season. After years of carrying a camera all over the farm just pointing and shooting, she decided she wanted to learn more and get off auto. This resulted in enrolling and doing an online photography course through The Photography Institute, which fitted in with running a farm.This way she can share the things and moments which delight her.

It has been a real eye opener, no more auto, and it has sparked a desire to learn more which she works on just for fun now that she has retired from farming

She loves travelling, and recording rural life and its people, some of the coastal life in her new life, and showing her world and it's delights..
