If I had to choose a favourite set of sculptures, I think I’d have to pick the Kelpies in Scotland. Inspired by the shape‑shifting aquatic spirits of Scottish folklore, these towering horse heads pay tribute to the kelpies said to haunt rivers and streams, appearing most often in the form of a powerful, untamed horse.

The Temple of Philae is a breathtaking ancient Egyptian complex near Aswan, and it’s every bit as impressive at night as it is in daylight. Dedicated primarily to the goddess Isis, the entire temple was painstakingly relocated, stone by stone, to nearby Agilkia Island in the 1970s as part of a UNESCO rescue effort — a monumental project undertaken to save it from the rising waters created by the Aswan dams.

My yearly dose of aviation usually comes from the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford — a tradition I’ve looked forward to for as long as I can remember. With this year’s show cancelled due to world events, I’ve been revisiting old photographs instead.

Traditional fishing practices continue across much of Sri Lanka, where the morning catch is spread out in the midday sun to dry. It’s a routine shaped by generations of coastal life — simple, methodical, and deeply tied to the rhythm of the sea.

A Spotted Owlet (Athene brama) looks down over the Pench Tiger Reserve in India, its bright yellow eyes taking in a landscape long immortalised by Kipling. These forests, with their quiet branches and watchful wildlife, still hold the same magic that inspired The Jungle Book.

Puffins lift off from the Welsh island of Skokholm with surprising grace — a sharp contrast to the charmingly chaotic, almost crash‑landing style they use when coming back down.

Down in the basement of Elvis’s Graceland Mansion sits the snooker room, centred around a pool table he bought in the 1960s and wrapped in the bold, unmistakable décor of the 1970s.
