On our recent trip to Flat Holm I was talking to the group about the essence of a place and the nature of abstraction within photography. A couple of images I show related to this are of bird shit!
Sudley House
There are some hidden gems around, and often in your own locality, that for various curious and unfathomable reasons you have never visited before.

Quick Tip 9: Identifying Images
When your out and about a lot with the camera, particularly on a trip of a couple of weeks, and continually taking images day after day it’s easy to forget where they were taken.
The Cost of Luxury
Whatever your environmental concerns, and mine are many, it’s awe inspiring to sail through Milford Haven and wonder at the engineering feet that confronts you at every turn. On our trip out to the Smalls from Neyland we passed a whole array of tankers and three monsters in particular stood out.
Abstract Water: Spray
Home Farm Butterflies
It’s been a great weekend, weather wise, and down on the farm the butterfiles have been out in force. The Painted Lady and Whites were more ‘flitty’ and took a good while to gain anything decent from. That’s not always the case but today they were not for staying on any food plant for more than a second or two.
Dolphin Survey With Sea Trust
I was out with Sea Trust yesterday on a dolphin survey trip to the Smalls. The weather was, at last, fine but with a fairly heavy residual swell from the last low of a couple of days ago. It made the photography pretty difficult early on, but as we passed the Smalls lighthouse it quietened down and conditions improved.

Chiffchaff at Home Farm
A very ‘flitty’ Chiffchaff spent a good deal of this afternoon around the main hide at Home Farm.
Wells
During our recent holiday to Cheddar we cycled over to Wells and spent an enjoyable day in and around the Cathedral.
Kingfisher Preening
I was at Home Farm the other day clearing and tidying around the hide. We’re also starting to feed the birds again.

Cheddar 3: The People
Heritage Coast Course
Once again the weather provided the main point of focus for this course as it had done so for the Brecon Beacons. This time it provided us with the full spectrum of a typically unsettled period.

It’s been a while since the last post. We’ve been away at Cheddar Gorge. The weather was with us and lots of images were taken.
