Stunning, calm and crisp morning with a beautiful sky to go with it. All you could hear was the birds and the distant hums of the boats heading out.

The almost hidden forest heading down to Fermain Bay. This tree always performs at the end of November.

Stretching my legs around the lanes of the Forest. Never actually been in the Occupation Museum but I though it was worth a photo.

Took myself for a nice Sunday sunrise stroll down the the Pine Forest. To say it’s nearly mid September, it felt like mid summer.

Took a trip up to Le Get to find some inspiration. The best I could find was the sun bursting through the trees.

Head in the sky at 06:30, there was a strong hint that the sky was going to burst into life. Some days it’s worth travelling the extra few miles to really experience these moments.
Every time I come down here there seems to be less and less pine trees. Either fallen in the wind or cut down at the need of their life. I’ve got a feeling the remaining pine’s won’t be around for too much longer.

I try to walk as much as possible and this hobby really helps. Some days can be frustrating, others just a bit uninspiring but when you take a moment to appreciate what’s around, you realise it doesn’t really matter. I can at least walk away and know I tried my best. Broke a PB power walking back up to the car!

Stunning and warm autumn day on The Rock! I always struggle with clear skies but when you position the sun behind an object you can create some cool sunburst effects in camera.

The east coast of G-Land soaking up some beautiful morning sunshine.

For me, the clouds and rain make or break a landscape image. I know exactly what I want in my head and I will search for those visions if it means I get absolutely soaked and using a valuable Sunday lie in. After nearly 7 years of exploring almost every square mile of the island, it’s nearly impossible to find new locations. The answer is to keep going back to your favourites and see it in a different light.

With the impending rain storms, I knew an early rise was my only chance to capture something worth looking at. It started pretty bland but as the clouds started to roll in, things started to look a little brighter.

After a long week, what better way to unwind than taking in the gorgeous evening light under the canopy of Bluebell Woods. Enjoy it while it last because it’ll be gone before you know it.

Probably one of my more risky shots but a little extra effort goes a long way. The tides needed to be just the right height or the waves would either be too far down or completely submerge the moorings. I have to admit I was bricking it a bit with the potential of my camera being swept away by the powerful waves. But, I completed my own risk assessment, studying the waves for ten minutes and then elevated myself just enough to be able to grab it if needed.

This is the fourth time this month I’ve been down here to give this shot another go. Each time was either too cloudy or no clouds at all. This morning was almost another fail with thick haze on the horizon but I waited and I paced along the path for nearly an hour and then a rouge cloud bank rolled in and gave me something I was happy with.

Another take on Marble Bay and the Pine Forest. Timed it just right from leaving home to power walking/running down here and back up before heading to work.

One of the WWII remains I’ve been meaning to photograph for years but never got round to it. It’s listed on the Antiquities as an Aircraft Firing Range with three flak gun emplacements nearby. The 1945 aerial photo shows two structures either side about 100 metres long with a track leading directly to an airstrip where the airport is today.

I really had to push myself to trek all the way down to the Pine Forest this morning but so glad I did. Tried finding an alternative composition ten minutes around the coast towards St Martins Point but fell back on trying to improve on my last attempt of this group of pine trees.
21.09.20
I’d hoped for a little more moisture in the air to get more atmosphere and I had very little enthusiasm today so I’ll take a rain check on this and return when the conditions are better.

One of those little pleasures in life, always rewarding no matter what time of year you go.
