What is Plan B?
The best-laid plans can go awry. It happens to all of us from time to time. You set off to go somewhere, maybe an hour’s drive away, may be further afield for a photo shoot. It may be a place you’ve been to before and you have some particular images in mind to re-shoot or […]
Taking Chances
Do chances come your way? When was the last time you had a chance to take an unusual image and you missed it? Do you recognize chance, photographically speaking? Most of us like to exist in our comfort zones in many walks of life – we are risk averse. Risk is dangerous – things can […]
What’s the Story?
It is said that the camera never lies. In fact it can tell a cruel version of the truth all too clearly – think of all those images you will have seen of politicians, celebrities or other prominent people papped at their worst: asleep inappropriately, yawning, having a bad hair day, eating a bacon sandwich […]
A Valuable Archive
I must start with an apology as it is now a few weeks since I last wrote an entry on this blog. The truth is that I have been acquiring new images at a frantic pace, and that makes the title of this post particularly relevant. Every time you go out and capture a few […]

Down the Garden
Two more Springtime images today from the bottom of our garden. Which is taken with a Mirror Lens? The first one is fairly obviously taken with one. It shows the typical – and in this case rather intrusive – ring-shaped … Continue reading
Bluebells 2013
Finally, in honour of the Whitsun Bank Holiday weekend, the sun obliged by shining and in the space of a day we visited four Bluebell woods. A fifth wood (first image below) had been visited a few days earlier when … Continue reading
June through a Mirror
Whatever happened to Flaming June, as we call it over here. It’s gone AWOL! I recall saying jokingly to friends in March, when we had an extraordinary spell of warm dry and settled weather – ‘This is our Summer’. The … Continue reading
Snowdrops – Harbingers of Spring
Snowdrops belong to the Genus Galanthus (greek for Milk Flower) – a native of Europe and Russia, and are one of the first of the bulbs to flower. They tell us Spring can’t be too far away, although they aren’t … Continue reading
Last leaves of Autumn
Autumn is closing down: the last leaves are blowing off the best trees. There was time for one final shoot last weekend – partly in Stowe gardens and partly in my own garden where we are really lucky to have … Continue reading
Mirroring Autumn
The title today is deliberately ambiguous. Maybe you were hoping to find some carefully crafted autumn mirror reflections. If so, sorry: you guessed wrong. This post is about a Mirror you look through – a 500mm Mirror lens. In an … Continue reading
