TELEGRAPH BAY

27.12.22

An awkward bay to access and photograph, especially at high tide. There’s a 20 metre sheer drop over this edge which is sketchy enough under the feet!

Shooting into the shadows and direct sun isn’t ideal but I managed to keep the details in both ranges.

ROUSSE RAINBOW

26.12.22

This was a strategical and last minute rainbow hunt mission. In eight years you get a solid understanding of how the weather works and plan it right, you can get what you want. The thrill of the chase!

CHICKEN

20.12.22

Took a drive round the lanes to find some inspiration. Ended up back at the old farmhouse by the reservoir with about 30 chickens roaming freely in the road. You almost have to stop and grab a photo.

TURNSTONE

16.12.22

Cool little birds. They hang around the fishing boats searching for scraps of seafood to munch on. I think someone told me mot of them migrate to Iceland in the summer.

MOODY SKIES

12.12.22

I headed to L’Ancresse in the hope of a frosty carpet across the common but it wasn’t quit cold enough.

The skies were brewing up nicely on the horizon but the colour never really popped.
