Welcome to "Images by Susan"

My passion is plants and insects found in my garden. I grow all types of plants, many to encourage insects such as bees, hoverflies and butterflies. I am an experienced gardener of long-standing, but my interest in photography has only really become a passion since the introduction of digital cameras. I worked with computers in London for many years. Such experience has helped me with Elements which I have taught myself.

I am a creative person so you will find images that I have created. I also like to take landscape shots and since I live in the countryside, this is an easy task for me, surrounded by beautiful scenery.
I hope you like my work and I hope you enjoy my website. All my photographs are available for sale with price lists and products shown. However, to save time I upload JPEG files which are much smaller than TIFF files saved on my computer. If you want larger TIFF files, please contact me via my website (please go to contact information page). I am happy to make available larger files.

About
Hello and welcome!


I am a gardener of many years standing. At one time I exhibited Dahlias, growing mainly giants which I still like to grow today in my garden. I won the National Dahlia Champion Award for S.E. Essex years ago (too many that I will not reveal when). I have also won many competitions associated with national gardening magazines. You may find me on other sites using the name Suelen. Currently I write for Garden News once a month, sharing details of what has been happening in my garden, success or failure. My article is usually printed 3rd week of the month.

Although my passion is gardening, I am a keen photographer. I particularly like macro photography. I do take landscape shots too since I live in rural Norfolk where there are lots of opportunities for photographs. In fact, a canal runs right outside my front door and this has ducks, swans and other wildlife. Lots of canal boats go past too, mainly in the summertime. Norfolk has big skies and acres of farmland. This makes for ideal photographic opportunites.

In 2012 I was lucky enough to receive two Commended Awards from Kew. I entered their International Garden Photography Competition which is run every year. My pictures have been printed in Kew's book which is produced in association with the competition. You will find my Commended entries in my Portfolio.



Thank you for looking.
