Playing around with a corkscrew and a lamp in the kitchen this evening…I had hoped to get it with its “arms” up…but I didn’t have the patience to work out how to do that 😉
Following on from my previous forks and shadows photograph I thought I’d have a go a spoons this time. Not as interesting as the forks shot, but I enjoy the simplicity of these pictures.
We visited the National Trust’s Wicken Fen this afternoon for a pleasant walk. It was very busy as the weather was quite lovely. Whilst I’ve taken this photograph before, it really is the number one subject at Wicken Fen…the highland cattle were hiding in the long grass and the ponies
A very dull grey day today. I took a quick drive up to Alton Water and saw all sorts of interesting birds – cormorants, great crested grebes, a robin, wagtails, blue tits, a lovely white Egret…and what do I bring back photographically…a seagull!
I had half an hour for lunch today so only had time to take a quick stroll down the land from work. I noticed these apples in someones garden…perfectly natural, but I suspect no one would by an apple like this if they found it in the supermarket 😉

I took a quick trot down to Lower Holbrook and my stretch of beach this lunchtime armed with my 2 cameras, one digital, one film and my 16 stop ND filter. This shot took 350 seconds to take..just short of 6 minutes. You then have to wait another 6 minutes
Walking through Rowney Wood I noticed this bramble that was being used by a parasite to climb up a nearby tree. I enjoyed the strangulated thorn appearing between the wrapping vines. I thought a rather more cinematic look would work well with the picture.
I took a drive across to Walton on the Naze today. When I arrived it was completely overcast and starting to rain. After a rather depressing walk along the pier…to find the end of the pier was closed I returned to the car to ponder my next move. Rather than
