The first Split photos...

I'm so excited about having photos to share already. Split was beautiful and along with our Berwick holiday earlier this year, it was easily the most inspired I've felt for taking photos in a long time.

Again, I didn't know where to start with posting them, so I've started with the first roll of film I took and although these aren't the first photos, they are of one of my favourite parts of Split - Diocletian's Palace.

I was expecting to be blown away by the palace - its not very often you walk around a place where the walls are 1700 (give or take) years old and I have never seen Roman ruins outside of the UK. The palace is also the world's most complete remains of a Roman palace as well - it was going to be amazing and it was. We walked around the palace a lot, we had drinks in there, we ate food in there, we bought souvenirs in there - it definitely did not disappoint.

p.s. The statue is Gregory of Nin by Ivan Mestrovic and we now have a minature version of him on our souvernir shelf (you can see it here) I love it!

Found!!

I found some of my lost photos!! I thought they were all from the negatives that were incorrectly scanned at Max Spielmann (which I did actually send to a friend to scan for me and then I lost the only copy of the digital they sent over, oh Rhianne...) but wahey, my favourites were actually on the discs and now my heart is happy because now I have these.

Look, it's Harry and my Mum. Harry's little face in that last photo cracks me up and doesn't my Mum just have the loveliest smile. I'm seeing her tonight and I can not wait already (also excited about my Dad too, don't worry Dad).

I had a little cry over my temporarily lost photos, but now I think I want to cry more because I found these again, I was so upset to lose these photos especially, as I do miss little Harry and my parents when I'm not with them. Funnily enough I hadn't actually planned to post these here originally (I wanted to keep them all to myself, I'm mean like that) but I'm so happy that I have them, I'm telling the world!! Woohoo! 

p.s. Thank you to the lovely people who offered to rescan my negatives for me. The one lost film isn't actually that great a roll, so I can wait until I get my own scanner (hopefully soon) to rescan them and seriously tweak them, but my sad little heart appreciated the offers more than you could know.
