Foggy day
Just before Christmas, we had a few foggy mornings in our area and I started wondering if I could find any good photographs in local [...]
Grey skies
I had mixed luck with the weather while I was up in Northumberland. One afternoon, it poured with rain and I had to cancel my trip [...]
I saw a dolphin!
I've spotted a few amazing things on my yearly trips - otters and red squirrels to name two, but this was my first dolphin [...]
Back to Bamburgh
Even though I only spent less than 24 hours in Northumberland back in 2019, I fell in love with the place and couldn't wait to return [...]
May Bank Holiday
I keep a list of locations that I would like to visit at some point and Dovercourt in Essex had been on there for a while. I knew [...]
A local walk
Well... perhaps not quite that local, but only a ten-minute drive from home. These were taken in the middle of November when we were allowed [...]
Birling Gap at sunset
Back in early September last year, while life was still relatively free and easy, I decided to drive down to Birling Gap for sunset. The plan [...]

Winnat’s Pass

My favourite view
Taken on the same day as Mam Tor (in my previous blog post), I had also photographed this dilapidated old barn seven years earlier. My plans [...]
Mam Tor at sunrise
I blogged about my first evening on Stanage Edge in the Peak District a few weeks ago. I had already planned to revisit Mam Tor for sunrise [...]
Felixstowe
Felixstowe is a seaside town in Suffolk and is home to the largest container port in the UK. I took three empty cat baskets there for a day trip [...]
Naked photo shoot
"It could only happen to you", said my husband when I rang from Stanage Edge just after sunset. To be fair to me, it had been his idea to pack [...]
Return to Osea
So it took much longer than anticipated to get the image I wanted of the Osea beach huts. Looking at the tide tables in more detail, I could [...]
