Standing outside a shop, waiting for my wife. Five minutes, nothing to do, the urge to scroll. I looked around instead and came away with three photographs. 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 and this week, as my newsletter returns, I explain the how and why of this project I am slowly building -

It’s just a pipe, a wall and a bush, but there is something about it that drew me in 😍📸

There is nothing quite like sequencing photos while drinking strong coffee. 😋

My next is coming along nicely, so watch this space. Have a great weekend, all!

A relaxing week easing into the bank holiday, but a productive one photographically. Family trips to the Norfolk Broads and Suffolk, a visit to medieval Lavenham, the usual local wandering, and Light Around The Home back with a fresh Airbnb to explore. This week's Photoweek is live -

𝗠𝘆 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 is actually one I forgot to share from last week. It's simply walls that caught my eye while wandering down the road for bread.

Managed to grab a few moments to chase the light around Lavenham church last week. I’m not religious per se, but I always find peace, tranquillity, and photographic joy in these places. 😌📸

Random, I know, but this has to be my favourite photo from last week - a lovely new addition to my Light Around The Home project.

Have a great week, all!

Castle hunting on the Kent coast with my youngest this week, taking in Rochester and Dover before the rain washed out the rest. Work took me to London, Cambridge, and Ely, so I snuck photography in between, plus a Fens bike ride.
