Nicola has been taking photographs her whole life. The first time she remembers holding a camera, being an old Instamatic, was on a family holiday at Potins Blackpool 1976 where she spent most of the holiday chasing her muse (big sister) around trying to 'capture' a photograph. Taking photographs is her joy as she enjoys capturing time for others and herself. She also loves to write so to take photographs of the town she lives in and present herself as an author also is an honour. She finds it a privilege to improve upon her passion and to have someone others enjoy it too. She hopes you, the reader of this book enjoys it as much as she enjoyed doing it - it's been a challenging and blissful project. Nicola lives in Retford with her husband and two children.
