A few details from York, seen in black and white. Old brick, shop signs, clocks and the movement of the streets—little moments that caught my eye.

📷 If something catches your eye, there's probably a reason for it.

One of the things I enjoy most about photography is noticing something that makes me stop and look a little longer.

During my recent trip to Gdańsk, Poland, I found myself photographing all sorts of things: beautiful old buildings, reflections in the water, unusual angles and even industrial cranes.

Sometimes it's the light, sometimes the shapes or colours. Other times, you don't quite know what attracted you until you look at the photograph afterwards.

And occasionally, discovering the story behind what you've photographed makes the image even more interesting.

That's what I love about everyday photography. You don't always need to go looking for a photograph. Sometimes it's simply a case of noticing what's already there.

If something catches your eye, there's probably a reason for it.

Everyday delights. 🐞

Sometimes the smallest things are the most fascinating.

One of those little childhood moments that deserves to be remembered.

What makes a portrait feel like a portrait? 📷

These two photographs were taken almost exactly a year apart, when my daughters dressed as wartime evacuees for the same Year 6 school trip.

They're similar subjects, similar costumes and even the same idea with an apple from the garden, but the photographs have quite a different feel.

The first was taken using a longer lens, allowing me to separate Ellie from the background and turn the garden foliage into a soft, dark backdrop. For Lydia's portrait a year later, I used a shorter kit lens, bringing much more of the environment into the photograph.

It's a nice illustration of how focal length, distance and composition can completely change the character of a portrait. Sometimes you want to isolate the person; sometimes including more of their surroundings helps tell the story.

And, naturally, the photographer can control all of those things.

Getting two sisters to give the same level of enthusiasm for the photograph is rather less controllable. 😄
