Flickr Community & Inspiration

The new year is all about fresh starts and resolutions and it is no different here. In this space we want to start showcasing a little more of what you, our readers create.

Each fortnight, a theme will be set and we welcome you to add any photos that you think fit this theme. Then a selection of photos (around 9-10) will be selected and posted here, the Fat Quarterly website.

The first theme is 'Winter Blues'.
