Buckets & Spades is a blog about a boy who lives by the seaside, I don't really tend to stick to one subject but I do cover a heck of a lot. I started the blog in 2008 as a means to store my thoughts, inspiring images and artists I've found, from then on it's grown and is now more of a visual diary.
For my images I use a Canon 350d & Canon IXUS 95 IS.
