I apologise if you have subscribed to receive my blog updates and have suddenly got several update notices. I am so far behind and am trying to catch up a bit, so am posting back dated news events that should have been posted at the time but I didn`t have the time to do so. Since passing my driving test I have been able to travel around a fair bit for my photography and spiritual work. I also spent just over a year training and working voluntarily with a local spiritual organisation, designing and helping them launch their own newsletter/ magazine and doing other things for them. Since I moved on from the organisation into another more local one, I have started up my own spiritual awareness & develoment and paranormal investigation centre so I can teach others and start up my own paranormal team. I am a trained paranormal investigator and trainee spiritual medium as well as a photographer, and I also work with two other paranormal groups, attend two other development circles, run a stall selling my cards, calendars etc raising money for my own centre, and run my home with two teenage children & the dog, so spare time is pretty rare!. I haven`t been able to update my 3 blogs, my 3 websites or my 3 online shops, my many online groups and photo galleries for some time, this is one of those rare occasions I have a little time on my hands so I`m trying to get some updating done now!. Sorry for the influx of sudden blog update notices!

Just in case you are interested in my spiritual/paranormal centre, here`s the website:

Another visit to North Wales wouldn`t have been complete without seeing at least one waterfall... so I paid a quick call to Swallow Falls in Betws-Y-Coed whilst there!. Although I was disappointed at the lack of viewing angles and amount of overgrowth blocking a lot of the viewpoints, as well as not being able to view the lower cascades, I was still pleased I went and got some nice photo`s of the middle and upper cascades. Here is a sample photo

You can see more photo`s at:

Enjoy!

I have another new waterfall for my collection, Pistyll Rhaeadr in North Wales. What a beauty, although not very easy to photograph all in one photo due to the size and lack of viewing angles & distances. Although I am pleased with the photo`s I got, I do hope to go back again another time.

Here is a sample photo which is my favourite as it`s about the only one showing practically the whole waterfall, as you can see I had to stand well back and get in a lot of the surrounding trees etc to get as much in as possible!

You can see the rest of the photo`s taken on this trip at

http://gallery135050.fotopic.net/c1697388.html

Enjoy!

 

I am a keen photographer and waterfalls are my speciality. Now I am independantly mobile I hope to travel around a bit to see some in other places. Although I love ours here in South Wales and will continue to visit them regularly, it will be nice to be able to add some newer ones to my portfolio!

I have just returned from a trip to North Yorkshire where I was lucky enough to see several of their waterfalls in full flow following recent heavy rain. Here is one example, this is Pecca Twin Falls and is one of my favourite photo`s from the trip...

I have many more photo`s of the waterfalls at

Enjoy!

 

I have only been officially driving for a few weeks and am just back from my first long drive. I took the children to see my family in England, which is about 197 miles or so from home. Okay it might not seem a long distance to some people, but to me it`s the longest distance I have driven yet, and I did have to drive all the way back again the same day! I am relieved that`s out of the way, I hadn`t driven on motorways or at night before so I did three "firsts" in one day. I am hoping to drive to Yorkshire in a few weeks to see some of their waterfalls, so need to get a lot of practise in Spirit beforehand (although I will be staying over a few days not coming back the same day!) I`m just so loving the new independance and Spirit is such a dream to drive I feel like I have been driving her for years... I absolutely love driving, you could say I`m hooked!

I am so proud to introduce the new addition to my family, something I was beginning to think I would never have, my very own car!!!

Her name is Spirit, isn`t she beautiful!  Boy am I going to have some fun now I can drive myself around for my spiritual work and photography instead of relying on other people!

 

I`m delighted to say I passed my driving test!...

Hi

I have become aware of technical problems with emails sent to my personal domain email addresses which are linked to my websites and shops. No emails have been received either redirected through my ISP (my preferred method) or at my personal domain host webmail, for some time.

I have no alternative but to close the email addresses in question and open new ones to take their place. If you have emailed me at any karenskreations email address, or through either of my websites or shops and have not received a reply, I apologise, it is likely your message was not received at all.

Please feel free to write again, you can find the new addresses at my websites or you can use the guestbook... if you don`t wish the entry to be made public just mention this in your message!

Thanks for your understanding

I hope you will find something to your liking. I apologise in advance but for a few months I will not be online so much. I hope to add a few new designs when possible but I am doing a lot of courses and also learning to drive, so my time is mostly taken up offline... hopefully soon I will be purchasing some items from one of the above designs myself! 
Thankyou for your support and I look forward to the next newsletter
