All set up for the bath and west show. Hope to see some familiar faces!

Also, my website is currently down thanks to a unique squarespace policy (and by unique, i mean stupid). It will take a few days to fix, but my business is still very much alive and kicking. Email and phone are still working for any questions and queries.

Last thailand post. Spectacled langurs might not be the rarest species I've ever seen, but with orange babies, white eyes and lots of fluff, they are one of the most beautiful.

A few more of the images I got in Thailand. Mainly in Kaeng krachan national park. The gibbons were incredibly difficult to photograph. Spending all their time 60ft up some of the tallest tropical trees anywhere in the world. The sun bear on the other hand wandered around 10ft from me, unbothered by my presence. And the elephant was a bonus, normally, finding them is difficult and actually getting a decent view in thick jungle is even harder.

Just got back from Thailand and specifically Kaeng Krachan National park. Bit of a hidden gem. Still going through all the images, but finished editing some.

For those of you that know that I worked at monkey world, Stump tailed macaques, are a favourite animal of mine. Tonnes of personality and a fascinating species to work with or observe. Very much enjoyed seeing them in the wild and seeing some stumpy babies.

Not sure which of these images I'll end up printing, so as always, liking your favourites is very helpful. Im guessing babies are going to be the favourites. A weirdly cute mix of tiny old man and baby monkey.

These images are partially from kaeng krachan national park and partially from wat khao tao mo non hunting area near by.

2025. 2 great trips, couple of new landscapes, 2 new products (blankets and lamps) and my new cabin. 2025 was a big year and a big step for my business. I'd like to thank anyone who bought something from me this year and wish everyone a great new year.

Some people have been asking where I will be next year, which is nice. The simple answer is, I don't know. Watch this space.
