In an earlier post, Cat with No Name, I hinted that our furry friend did, in fact, have a name. These photos of her fast asleep on my lap feel like the perfect moment to finally share it. The name we settled on suits her purrfectly. Everyone, meet Velcro. The name came from the simple … More The Purrfect Name
There’s a stillness that arrives when something ends. Not the kind that feels empty, but the kind that hums quietly beneath the surface. This photograph was taken on one of those evenings when the world seemed to pause. The light was fading behind the fields, the air heavy with mist, and the path ahead barely … More Where Yesterday Still Echoes
Another flash back to the end of last year (2024) when we visited York on what I am sure was the foggiest day of December if not the year. We ventured into Dean’s Park, which is situated along the edge of York Minster. The fog surrounding the trees created some perfectly earie shadows. As with … More Dean’s Park in the Mist
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
When you adopt a human with a love of photography & animals, being photographed is the trade off the fuzzy one has accepted for food, pets, and unconditional love. Although sometimes I think the more appropriate description would be “puts up with” rather than accepted. My photographs of the fuzzy one are a slight departure … More Garden Cat
Since working from home I try to go out for a walk most days. This usually involves a walk around one of our local parks. I’m always grateful for the amount of green spaces that we have around the city. For a city that has such an industrial background it is probably also one of … More The Park in Mono
Flashback to some early shots of when the fuzzy one came into our lives. After claiming our garden & shed as her kingdom, it wasn’t long before she set her sights on the inside of our house. In the early days our utility room was as far as we would allow her to venture. It … More Meow
These shots were taken a few weeks ago now, but I’ve not had the motivation to write the blog post to go with it. I’m always torn between posting just my photos (literally just photo-blogging) or trying to write some sort of narrative to go with my photos. I never really know what to write. … More Spring in Mono
This post is a change of subject from my usual photo posts. Adding a new photo category to my photo collections, which I’ve decided for the moment to call “Catnip & Whiskers”. I have toyed with the idea for some time whether I should even include this subject in my photo blog/site. My most recent … More Stray Visitor
The tenth instalment of my #LivingInLockdown series, which I have debated for some time over publishing this particular post. I have written & rewritten it countless times in my head. This entry is more personal than my previous #LivingInLockdown posts, I wanted to document how lockdown has directly affected me, hopefully this series of photos … More Lockdown & Me
The ninth instalment of my #LivingInLockdown series: The world that we live in has changed in many ways due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has touched everyone’s lives in one way or another. One of these many changes was to the way that most people work. The UK Government advised employers to enable their employees … More Working From Home
My fifth instalment of #LivingInLockdown, another glimpse in to life during COVID-19 lockdown in the UK. One of the few occasions that we’re allowed to venture out in to the big world outside of our homes…shopping!!! Where even people who would normally hate the ideal of shopping are probably rejoicing to be able to pop … More Shopping in Lockdown
