Candle

Whilst in Oslo Holly and I didn’t really eat much local food. Holly can’t go near fish without some form of projectile vomit and any of the traditional eateries we investigated the menus of seemed to...

Experimenting With Light

Sometimes when I’m feeling in a creative rut, as I did for pretty much all of 2016, I will look to buy a new photographic toy to rejuvenate myself, try some new things, and bring back the spark of...

Fairy Tree

Sometimes, out of nowhere, I’ll catch sight of something that will make me get my camera out and shoot. It’s the reason I still carry my camera everywhere. Often before now, these little isolated shots...

Spring Along the Thames #2

I like walking. I feel I should start with that so that you can consider the post that follows in that context, because we can all get carried away doing the things we love sometimes. I’ve had the last...

Random Gems #5

From time to time I’ll take photographs that just don’t sit with the others I’m taking alongside it, so they end up cast aside when I’m writing in order to not disrupt the flow of the post with a...

London Wetlands Centre

I’ve had a fair amount of success lately in shooting and editing pictures at various locations. Actually writing them, however, is still proving a bit of a challenge. We’re at that time of year when,...

Hair Cut

A couple of months ago I made the decision to shave my head for charity. It had been almost 15 years since the last time I had short hair, not long before I started university. Most of the people in my...

RTX London 2017

If you’re one of my regular readers on this site (which I doubt since I’m not exactly a regular poster on this site, giving you nothing to read regularly) then chances are you probably haven’t heard of...

Family

It has obviously been a bit quiet around these parts for a while. Things have been lagging generally since last summer if I’m honest, as I gradually got out of the habit of photographing and, more...

Dancing in Kensington

As I continue to try to get back into the habit of publishing photos on this site, I realise I now have a decent backlog the likes of which I’ve not had in some time. I have continued to take...

Shot on iPhone

It has been quite a while since my last ‘proper’ post on this site. Over two years, in fact. That post, Dancing in Kensington, was itself published a year after the pictures within it were taken, and...

Brompton Cemetery

The photo walks I have been on in the past with my friend Catherine have produced some of my best work. From our first trip to Borough Market, through our series of London walks in 2015, and our...

Lightning

One night, somehow already over two years ago, I found myself at midnight unable to sleep. There was a torrential storm going on, so I got up and poked my head out of the window to see the most...

Bluebell Railway

I managed to commit a cardinal photography sin last in 2019. For the first time I can remember – certainly since I’ve been running this site and taking my hobby of photography seriously – I managed to...

Ashenground Woods

Just a short distance from our house is a small wood. Because it’s relatively close and its various paths create an easy walking loop from our house and back again, it’s become a bit of a go-to wander...

Rooster Teeth UK 2022

I’ve spoken of my love of US-based online content company Rooster Teeth briefly before, after attending their inaugural UK fan convention almost five years ago. Following the 2017 event I did, as I...

More Cornish Sunsets

I remember my trip to Cornwall in 2013 with my wife and her parents very fondly, not least because my father-in-law is no longer with us. Whilst there on most evenings we were blessed with some...

Ardingly Reservoir

Only a very short drive from where we live is Ardingly Reservoir. Let’s clear this up from the off: not being native to this part of the country it is only recently that I learned that Ardingly is not...

Dandelions

There are a handful of photo projects I have been intending to get around to for some time. Some such ideas have been sitting on my to-do list for years but, as is often the case, means, motive and...

Twelve Years

Another year has passed – they start coming and they don’t stop coming. As is customary I like to post a little reflection on the anniversary of me setting up this site, something I did a staggering...
