The online presence of Tim Collier. Photographer, course leader, lecturer and blogger.
It’s been a little quiet on the site lately, I’ve been posting images on Instagram lately as it seems a decent platform to display images. I have to say as well it’s been good to follow some exceptionally talented photographers who throw you into new ways of thinking and imaging, so all good so far!
Simply a great place to be during this time of the year. Avocets, godwits, gulls and lots of squabbling – wish I lived closer!
Following on from the Avocets on the Exe post (It’s all a bit jumping back and forth I know) I followed them, and the flocks of black-tailed godwits onto the estuary as the tide receded.
More to come from Islay later but I managed a few of days down on the Exe estuary last week, again in search of getting some images of geese, dark-bellied brent this time from arctic Russia, in the context of the estuary. It was also an opportunity to witness a spectacle that has to be one of the finest in Britain, the population of avocets that flock in large numbers to this part of the world during the winter.
Surely a case of crossing the line with this construction of an egret and a frog by Bryan Patrick.
