Sally, aged 28, from Kinver, works as a cleaner and bar assistant at The Plough & Harrow in the village and starting taking photographs only three years ago.

Now Sally has decided to put her work on public view with an exhibition at a closed unit at The Swan Centre in Kidderminster.

Sally said: "I started taking pictures on my walks by the canal and posted them online and was contacted by a local photography group at Kinver.

"I then took lessons from a professional photographer and now I have decided to show my wok to the public.

"I mainly take photographs of landscapes but my style involves picking out unusual features.

"I like to find fascinating and interesting parts of the landscape for my work."

Now Sally is hoping the 16 black-and-white and colour photographs she is showing in the exhibition will cause interest among townsfolk.

She said: "I am interested to find out what people think of my photographs and eventually hope to sell my work."
