Lately, I’ve been reflecting on how I present my photography, and I’ve realised that while I do share my creative side, I rarely share much of myself. Whether it’s on social media or here on my blog, I usually just include a brief blurb about my photograph(s). But I’ve noticed that many of the photographers … More Photography & Me (part 1)
2024 hasn’t been the most productive year where my photography is concerned. I haven’t posted much at all, or spent much time creating new photographs, and that’s ok. I have been a little preoccupied with life. Of the photographs that I did take last year and shared, the below slideshow shows a few of my … More In Review: 2024
It has been a while since I have posted. Life has kept me busy over the past 18 months. So I haven’t been as active on social media or out with my camera as much to create new content to share with you all. To those who are kind enough to follow my photography & … More Still Here!
I know I published this poll on one of my previous posts, but I thought I would share it again. I am interested which view modes people use when reading blogs.

I have played with the idea of including my signature or using a script styled font for some … More Update: New Logo
Although I have not written many posts this year, I have spent some time making design updates to my site. The most noticeable being the theme colour. I am quite partial to a dark theme. Most of my devices & apps are set to dark themes (my smartphone, laptop, and even my work devices). So, … More Update: Gone Dark
Life has distracted me a from my photography and updating my blog in recent months. The last year has had its up & downs. Recent events has taken its toll on me emotionally. On the 18th December 2022 during a short stay in hospital my Dad passed away unexpectedly due to complications with an existing … More Absence
It has been a while since my last post, in fact it feels like forever ago. Not only has it been some time since I published my previous post, but I have not been out & about with my camera either. It wasn’t my intention to take some time out from my site or photography. … More Time Away
#NatureForEveryone Anyone who follows my photography knows that it is highly inspired by nature. So when I came across the Wildlife and Countryside Link‘s campaign for #NatureForEveryone, it caught my eye. Although I wouldn’t describe myself as an outdoorsy person, I do love getting close to nature. My first memories of properly connecting with nature … More Nature For Everyone
2021 was a tough year for us all, what with the continued pandemic and accompanying lockdowns & ever changing restrictions. Personally, I feel that 2021 was just an extension of 2020. Thankfully, we saw less lockdowns in 2021 compared to 2020 as we all tried get back into “normal” routines. Although a part of me … More In Review: 2021
I have been debating for some time to activate the Premium Tools that WP has to offer. One of the premium tools that I have decided to trial is WordAds. I have been undecided about WordAds for sometime, as I’m not overly a fan of adverts on websites, as they can be intrusive. I figured … More Word-Ads Trial
