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
Some more photos taken during the snowfall a few weeks ago. These shots unlike the ones I shared in my last post were slightly more planned. They were taken while we were out walking round one of our local parks. Although it may not look like it in these shots, the snow had started to … More March Snowfall
This is my first photo post in quite some time. To be honest it’s my first attempt at photography after recent events (if you exclude taking photos of the cat). Last week brought a cold spell here in the UK that I wasn’t quite expecting or prepared for. With that came a decent amount of … More Winter Walk
There is no denying that Squirrels are one of my favourite woodland creatures. Living so close to several woodland habitats provides me with many opportunities to watch & photograph these amazing creatures in their natural environment. At some point I would love the opportunity to be able to photograph Red Squirrels. Although Red Squirrels are … More Squirrel in the Woods
My first photo post of 2022, although I have to admit this one from my archives taken during last Summer. I’ve not had the opportunity to venture out with my camera yet this year, and the cold Winter weather is doing nothing to encourage me. With Spring just around the corner, I’m hopeful this will … More Nesting Ducks
Swan’s are one of the most magnificent & elegant water birds (in my opinion). Signets are equally as beautiful in their own fluffy way. Their soft grey down makes them look like little grey clouds floating on the water. I managed to capture a few shots of this Swan & Signet, sadly not swimming together. … More Signet & Swan
I spotted this little fellow (which I believe is a Bush Hen) wading through some Lilly pads. He seemed to be a little lost as he was constantly calling out to I assume his mother and other siblings who were further out on the pond. It Looked as though he went adventuring on his own … More Bush Hen
Since the weather has turned colder I have been less motivated to venture out with my camera of late. So I have dug in to my archives for this collection that was taken earlier this year while visiting one our favourite nature reserves. Just as well when I do venture out with my camera I … More White Perkin
