So I was lucky enough to be asked by the people at the Forestry Commission to take some images of their ForestLive music weekend at Bedgebury National Pinetum. Here are a few shots from day one, Tom Jones and lots of happy ladies!

Welsh Tom Jones fans

Some Tom Jones fans were as proud as he is to be Welsh and certainly didn’t let the weather dampen their spirits.

Robyn Sherwell and her band were the support for the evening

It’s easy to see how he has made a career for himself doing this, Tom Jones is a consummate professional and his band were spot on – great sound too!
