I recently purchased a new iMac and with it Photoshop.  Which sounds great, "Yey! Photoshop!" but of course I have no idea how to use it!  So today, as I had a little time on my hands, I thought I would start to play around with the programme.   I think I will mostly use it for creating moodboards, so  figured this was a nice simple place to start.

I've been holding onto this Ostrich image for some time, it is so beautiful.  They look so feminine and curious.  I wish I knew who created it so that I could credit them.  If anyone knows do please let me know.  

The picture on the left is from a Vogue shoot in 1962 of Nena von Schlebrugger , she is Ulma Therman's mother.  She is stunning and the tones and feel of this picture is sublime.

And the caravan in the middle was shot by Jose Villa and styled by Bluebird Cotillion.  You can see the full stunning shoot here.

With all of these images together I started to feel full of the joys of Spring.  I recently saw the first Spring shoots coming up in my garden so know that it is a time for optimism and that the sun is not far away.

Combining the soft salmon pink of these products with the greys and neutrals is such an easy way to dress our homes or ourselves.  If I had £375 I would definitely buy myself that pair of Ruperts to brighten up my next journey into town...
