The fog was absolutely fabulous the other morning. It was also the first day I’ve had to defrost the car windscreen and the gloves came out! The frost clung to the grass and really added to a wonderful atmosphere. 💙🥶

Sometimes, you just have to keep it simple 💙

One from a wonderful workshop last year that I didn’t get round to posting. We had a little bit of a scramble to get down to this waterfall, but it was absolutely worth it. Believe it or not, we also just beat the rain, although those heavy clouds were threatening to absolutely drench us.

I’ve driven past this scene more times than I’d care to admit recently. One evening, the light was perfect. It’s not a particularly accessible spot by foot, so I had to choose my parking space carefully and wait for the right moment. I’ve been planning this for weeks.

No, I had. I got out of the car and started walking up the road. Did the clouds come and neutralise the powerful, warm sunlight that had made me finally decide to take my chance.

Turd, I continued walking and took my shot. While I am still glad that I did, I will be going back for a fresh take. For me, this is a scene with so much potential and I feel like I’m only just scratching the surface.

Happy world photography day everyone. Here’s to the hobby that turned into a passion, that turned into a career, that turned back into a passion again.

I’ve been lucky. I’ve seen beautiful places, met wonderful people and experienced a good life, thanks to photography.

A big thank you goes out to my family and friends that enabled me and guided me, the teachers who educated me, those who have trusted me with their own education and the brands that have trusted me with their reputation.

It’s had to believe it’s been a journey spanning more than two decades. The best is yet to come. Here’s to the next two decades or so. 📸 🖤

The atmosphere added a lovely haze to my eclipse shots. Grateful the clouds held off. 🙏🏻

A long day today, but I’m back just in time to attempt to catch the eclipse from my back yard.

I’m stacking my KaseFiltersUK nd 1000, 64 and 8 to give me 19 stops of nd, which will shield my sensor from the power of the sun. 😊

Sorry it’s been awhile. I’m back. Here is something from November last year. It was incredibly cold and windy. Swipe right for the full frame.
