I grew some stripey tulips purposely to take their pictures!! They did not impress me until they were almost at the end of their lovely lives. The stripes became muted and the colours softened. I made use of the sunny windy days and kept on taking pictures of them, being blown by the wind and […]
Kilve beach has to be my favourite place for stormy photographs when there is a north westerly blowing and storms are coming up the Bristol Channel. The fabulous rock formations give wonderful textural foregrounds which are such a vital element in any landscape photograph. It was very hard to hold the camera still even with […]
I am no wildlife photographer but a recent trip for sailing to Sarasota Florida, it was impossible to ignore the abounding birds and beasts.

They say never work with animals and children but I love it and sometimes it is impossible to resist.
Just for a change I was called upon to go to the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy yesterday to take some ‘team’ pictures of my sailor daughter Mary and her new sailing partner Tom Phipps as they start on the last part of their ‘Road to Rio’. It was a dull gloomy day, good […]
