‘City of Stories’
📍Norwich
Overthinking … I’ve developed this bad habit of going out with my camera and sitting on photos for months, sometime years. Building up a huge backlog and going back and re-editing… always worrying if they’re good enough to post.

So I set myself a challenge. Here’s some photos from a walk around Norwich … all taken today. Hot off the press 🙌

‘Rush hour on the Thames’
📍Someplace around London
A slow shutter speed doesn’t freeze time … it lets it flow into the shot.

Here’s a few shots from my recent travels and photo walks.try as I might, I always find myself slowing down the shutter speeds.

‘Two Towers’ 🇬🇧
📍Big Ben
There’s something so satisfying about shooting with a slow shutter and purposely moving the camera to paint a scene. It’s basically trial and error until you review the set and pick out the most successful shots.

Embrace the imperfections 🙌

‘Everyday Prague’ 🇨🇿

More shots from Prague with an unusual focus on trams.

Top Tip: Always check the weather forecast before planning to wake up early for some sunrise photos. If only I had know it would be cloudy …

‘The Prague Post’ 🇨🇿
📍Prague
Starting the year with some more postcards from my recent trip to Prague. For the first time as a photographer, I was experimenting with a prime lens, capturing the city on 40mm.

Let me know what you think below 🙌

‘2025 - Wrapped’ 🇬🇧
📍Here, there and everywhere
Time flies! 2025 is almost over!

‘Hectic’ is the word I’d use. Still, I managed to find some time for photography scattered throughout. I was just going to make a new post, but decided to do a look back at my favourite snaps from through the year.

Go on, go for a scroll through 🙌

Stay creative. Onwards to 2026!

‘Postcards from Prague’ 🇬🇧
📍Prague Old Town Square
The photographer in me was hoping for snow on our trip to Prague. Still, the Old Town and Christmas markets brought plenty of Christmas cheer complete with horses.

Hope everyone has a lovely Christmas and a Happy New Year!

‘Trailing’ 🇬🇧
📍St Paul’s
This was a fairly fun one to shoot. Tried something a bit more unknown as I’m usually looking for objects in motion rather than deliberately moving the camera myself.

As per the normfor me now, these had been sitting in Lightroom for over year and I never thought they were anything special. Shout out to for the inspiration to finally post these!

Has anyone else tried something similar?
