Fireworks & Bonfire Night

Hey people!
So last week was actually alright considering I had a criminal psychology mock (yes another..) on Thursday but I was pretty happy with it as for once the stuff I revised for came up! However I realised I clearly can't judge how well I do on my mocks as the one I wasn't sure on I got a B and the one I thought I did well on I got an E..oh well lets just block out that grade

On the Thursday night I went to Roundhay Park (in Leeds) to watch the fireworks as it was bonfire night and I didn't take any pictures this year as it wasn't the best weather (just a polite way of saying it was shitty weather). But I realised I haven't shown you guys yet the photos I took last year of fireworks which I was proud I managed to capture, I had to bring a tripod so that year I was fully prepared (partly because we were asked to take pictures for photography). On Thursday, there were gold sparkly fireworks which were me in a nutshell (I'd like to think anyway). There was such a cool firework that twirled in the air and if you watch the apprentice you'll get this reference.. it was swishing and swooshing and tumbling and turning, my favourite quote by far;)

I realised I never have shown you my fireworks pictures as last year I wasn't yet blogging so here's my favourite picture I took and yes the fact the pictures cropped like that annoys me too..
Yesterday I went to Leeds (town as I call it..even though it's a city) as I booked a teenage makeup tutorial with Bobbi Brown. The woman who did my makeup was so lovely and I ended up getting extra light BB cream which is so good coverage I can use as foundation and a creamy matte colour it calls it and in the shade crushed plum. Berry/plum colours have been such a popular autumnal lipstick colour to use and continuing through to winter so at last I'm hopping on the trends. So like a true beauty guru (I wish) I took pictures of you of both makeup products:

(excuse my awful chipped nails)







This BB cream was pricy (about £29) but it's so worth it as for me it'll last ages and often when I use this I won't need to use concealer or foundation. As for the lipstick that was about £20 so still expensive but all good lipstick companies are like the famous brand MAC are just as expensive. So I'd highly recommend Bobbi Brown as a good makeup brand if you're wanting to change or just in need of makeup.










So last night I attempted to draw my name and do hearts with the sparklers but none of them turned out that good so I'm gonna try again tonight now I know how to improve as my camera technique was fine it was just how I used the sparklers. Here are some of my failed attempts as every good photographer has loads (I have probably way more though as I'm only an amateur). Can anyone see sophie in the first one..sorta?!




So if I get some good shots I'll show you all next week so I don't post late, have a good week!
Talk soon!
Sophie
