So the forecast was correct. We have had the first snow of 2025. Although, thankfully it has not dropped to -8c (in these parts at least). I’ve not had the opportunity to go out and photograph any snowy scenes yet. So, for the time being I shall share the last of the shots that I … More Snow in Monochrome
With more snow forecast for tomorrow and temperatures set to get as low as -8c in the UK. I realised that I hadn’t posted more of photos that I captured when we had our last snowfall here in the UK last November. I can’t quite believe that we are in 2025 already, it is sounding … More November Snow
It feels like Autumn hasn’t lasted long this year. It’s only November and we’ve already had a hint of Winter with first snow of the season. I don’t think I have witnessed Autumn and Winter meet in this way before. It was interesting to see the golden leaves still on the trees as the snow … More Autumn Meets Winter
Some days it is hard to see the light in the darkness. To see the beauty in world when times are tough. A few weeks ago, during a very grey and miserable looking day, I spotted these wildflowers doing their best to hold on as Autumn takes hold and the weather turns colder. It reminded … More Wildflowers Holding On
The Common Daisy aka lawn daisy or grass daisy. Some people may consider these as weeds, but I’m quite fond of them. They always make me think of Summer, childhood memories of picnics and daisy chains. I took these shots at a local woodland (Ecclesall Woods). Daisies, especially the Common Daisy probably aren’t most people … More Daisy in the Woods
Another post where I have delved into my photo archives. A couple of years ago we took a trip to Scarborough. While there we stopped off to explore Peasholm Park, which is known for its squirrel population. Anyone who knows me, knows that Squirrels are one of my favourite woodland animals. I love any opportunity … More Squirrel in the Woods
I’ve delved into my archives again for this post. I captured these shots during the Summer of 2020. During one of the many lockdowns of the time, when we were allowed to venture outside for exercise. Photo walks are exercise right? If my memory serves me, I spotted this female Mandarin duck nesting with her … More Mandarin & Ducklings
As I have not been out as much recently with my camera. I thought I would have a look through my photo archives. I have more photos from the last couple of years that I haven’t shared than I realised. I captured these shots last Summer while visiting the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. The grounds of … More YSP Highland Cattle
As I mentioned in my earlier post, life has been hectic of late. Meaning I have not spent much time on my photography. So, this is my first photo post in some time. It feels like it has been a while since I have connected with nature. In particular photographing it. So a few days … More Wild Pink Cosmos
