Katie Hilton Harris Camera Triple Exposure

I came across a great new photography app called Harris Camera this week that creates triple exposures. Here a couple of little tests with it, I hope to do some more soon!

Although being stuck in the studio most of the week while the nice weather continued outside I did have a nice break out for a free Mr Whippy courtesy of fellow tenant of The Sharp Project.

Katie Hilton Crosby Beach Antony Gormley

A day off meant a trip to Crosby and Southport! Antony Gormley's 'Another Place' is one of the only sculpture projects that has ever appealed to me. I've been and photographed it countless times.

Katie Hilton Jame's Italian Manchester Ravioli

This Wednesday was my birthday and I was treated to lunch at Jamies Italian Manchester. Had the very Spring-like Pea & Mint Ravioli!

I took full advantage of the bank holiday last week and headed for Little Moreton Hall, an amazingly preserved Tudor building in Congleton.

The timber framed structure was built over 500 years ago, but is still going strong (albeit quite wonky!) I'm a bit of a National Trust obsessive so I've been to a lot, but this is by far one of the most stunning ones. As always for the National Trust, the restaurant was delicious and the guided tour fascinating. I highly recommend taking a trip there if you're interested in history, or just nice buildings in general!

I went for the Afternoon Tea with Carrot Cake :D

Would you believe this is what the weather was like just 2 weeks ago? I took full advantage and headed for the seaside. Wales to be precise!

There's a little charity shop I always stop by in Rhos-on-Sea which is slightly up the coast. Always get such amazing finds there, such as this copy of Haydn's Creation for £1 and a Kodak Duaflex for £2!

I spent 9 days on a river cruise around The Netherlands last month, taking in the sights Franeker, Arnhem, Amsterdam and many others! My favourite place has to be Franeker, in particular the lovely art nouveau Planetarium Cafe (I was so busy enjoying my coffee I neglected to take any pictures :S). I highly recommend it if you're ever there. Although very cold, it did make for some crisp and blue photos. And of course I sampled the many sweet delights the Dutch have to offer...

There was also an amazing exhibition displayed across some hoardings outside Amsterdam station. This was one of my favourites, some kind of folded paper affair that makes me want to have a go!
