====A question, to you, the reader of my wiki page- //Do you enjoy seeing live performances?// Well, I do. There is something about seeing and hearing a band/singer right in front of you -**in the flesh**- playing the songs you have an appreciation of in some form or another. It just adds a new dimension to your admiration for the act. I think pretty much every gig I have seen I have **grown to love the band more,** even though I did not think it were possible to! It's so thrilling, and so much fun to sing along to your favourite songs. Although, being in the middle of a sweaty crowd is not very enjoyable! But I guess it's **all part of the experience.** ==== ====A couple of weeks back, I saw two bands at the Horden Pavillion- **The Strokes and Temper Trap**. If you don't know either, I suggest you look them up, as they are each very, very good. Below is a video clip to **my favourite Temper Trap song, "Love Lost"**. I love this song, but probably a bit too much! I hope you like it too. Just below is a link to their website, in case you want more information about them: ====

====A question, to you, the reader of my wiki page- //Do you often find yourself aimlessly looking at images on websites, lost in a world projected from you computer screen?// Well, I do. This is especially the case when it comes to fashion images, as it is something I am interested in. Whilst fashion is not everyone's cup of tea, **fashion photography** offers something that anyone interested in any form of art can enjoy. To me, I appreciate it because often the photos capture something which cannot be explained in words... I guess, a **distinct portrayal of beauty**. Below are some images from a fashion shoot I particularly am taken with, as the lighting, washed out colouring, the model's poses and, of course, the fashion compliment each other **so effortlessly and beautifully**. ====
