Visit to Branklyn Gardens today. Canon R3 with #helios44

My gorgeous boy 🌈🌈

The image has multiple tangled, dwarf oak trees with vines and poison oak covering the ground around them. One tree in the foreground frames the image, and as we look through the frame, we see all the tangled trees and vines. El Moro Elfin Forest (just called Elfin Forest) in Los Osos/Morro Bay, California. The trees are all very old, but never grew upwards much. Instead they branched out to the sides.

A Black-capped Chickadee on full alert for peanuts (the Chickadee was offered one right after this photo.)

A cluster of of daffodils with one flower in the foreground in focus, and the rest blurry in the background.

Daffodils are one of those flowers that I find hard to photograph. So I spent a bit of time and tried all sorts of different angles and finally came up with an image I like. Happy Spring.

Wandering Lisbon's streets. The Carreira 28 feels like a scene from another era. Used one of my go-to custom presets for these muted, nostalgic tones.

tiny weeds with water droplets

Discovered some weeds in my hydrangeas and couldn't bring myself to pull them out... how cut is that!! Pentacon 135 F2 with 2 extension rings. #vintagelens #pentacon135 #waterdroplets #gardenstories

Enlarger lens . You’re right!

A holly leave against a dark backdrop where the highlights showing up as square bubbles

I’m the cutest one on this side of the internet 😍 #cat #cats

Colour image of a Venetian lamppost with gondola and boat movement on the canal. It’s misty so the building faded to the background

Today I thought I would bring you a little bit of Venice colour. It also works really well in B&W but felt like a change

It’s not quite “springing” yet in Scotland.

Just a mobile pic. Taken in Cambo Gardens, Fife, Scotland yesterday.

Early this morning it was -22 degrees celsius and the trees looked like they were made of glass. Much more beautiful in person. 😍

Guten Morgen! (Norwegen, Sommer 2025)

Garden watercolour drawing with ripe plum tomatoes and G in her sun hat.

Watercolour drawing (quite large) of the garden a couple of summers ago. A very hot year and we had a good crop of plum tomatoes.

I have over 20k followers. I’m pretty sure around 13k of those are bots/scammers.

I gave up blocking them as and when the followed months ago. I couldn’t keep up!

I have to say it really puts my off using this app regularly going forward. Anyone else experiencing this?

Anyway here are 4 images…

Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach at dusk, viewed from wet sand at low tide. The pier extends diagonally across the frame on dark wooden pilings, with small lights glowing along the deck and over the cottages. Reflections of the pier and lights stretch across the smooth, reflective sand as low waves move beneath a deep blue sky that fades to warm orange near the horizon.

Post-sunset glow. Crystal Pier, Pacific Beach, San Diego, California

A small group of frozen trees in front of the Scottish highlands

Frosty Scotland. Waiting for snow this week…

A black and white photograph of a frozen pond surrounded by trees and a snow covered floor

First of the new year. From a walk in a local wood. Hoping to increase my photography and at least head out once a week

Decorated Forest

Snow-covered mountain peaks rise above a calm fjord with a small village on the shoreline in black and white.

Very famous viewpoint, very familiar composition.

I went with a long infrared exposure instead, about five minutes. The water smoothed out, the clouds blurred into structure, and the village stayed put.

Same place, different sense of time.

Aerial view of a massive iceberg reveal its hidden underwater part… Invisible from sea level.

Can you feel the calm in this scene? 🌅

Mungo Brush National Park never disappoints. The reflected colours in the sand and the line of the waves naturally guide your eyes to the glowing horizon and then up to the vibrant clouds.

What do you think?

Foggy mornings at the west coast of Scotland.

A huge wave crushing

Porto Moniz in #madeira Never Disappoints. The waves there are just awesome.
