MOG

23.05.19

In memory of Judith Kerr, author of one my favourite childhood books ‘Mog’ and sadly my mum and dad’s fourth cat Bubbles who went to cat heaven last night. Ironically Mogs final story sees him also pass away.

DANDELION PROJECT

Mixing up the macro combinations as a little experiment. This is the 50mm prime with another 60mm of extension tubes. Since moving to full frame from apsc, every focal length and optimal setting I’d adjusted to with macro went out the window. It’s a case of start again and see what works and what doesn’t.

GLADIOLUS COMMUNIS

21.05.19

I had no idea what these were called until I looked it up today but I’ve noticed them all over the island. Every time I drive past some I think about stopping and never do. These were in the middle of L’Ancresse common early this morning.

SELF PORTRAIT

The time felt right to put myself in front of the camera for a change (something I actually hate doing). I’ve needed a profile picture for my website year nearly 5 years so here’s take 1. It’s actually really difficult to get a decent back-lit shot on your own!

Never underestimate an overcast day! Sometimes you just need a little break in the clouds and this can happen.

I need to thank Danni for being so patient with me over the years. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve just dashed out the house a the last minute to grab a photo. This is why I do it, to witness moments like this :)
