FISHING QUAY

16.04.18

Lovely diffused light over the Quay this evening.  Making use of the recycled washing machine drums for some foreground interest and those clouds had a electric storm effect going on.

DUNES

15.04.18

The sun was out but looks can be deceiving.  The wind pickied up and the sea was kicking off.  A little reminder that it's not quite shorts a t-shirt weather yet!

MS QUEEN ELIZABETH

14.04.18

The first of the cruise liner visits for 2018 holding just over 2000 passengers.  very atmospheric conditions on the water, just slightly disappointed the ship didn't arrive an hour earlier to catch the sun coming up over Herm.

CALL OF THE WILD

13.04.18

Although I don't stop, sometimes I take a mental break and make life easy by shooting familiar things and experiment with different editing styles.  I've got loads of ideas for upcoming shoots but they all need to be carefully planned over the next month.  Saumarez Manor is minutes way from my work which meant I had an hour to just observe, slow down and enjoy taking pictures.

YELLOW BELLIED SLIDER

12.04.18

Went to Saumarez Park to see if the ducklings were around, came out with a photo of a Yellow Bellied Slider Turtle.  I'd seen this turtle last year but it seems to camouflage itself very well, obviously not so well today.

LES AMARREURS

11.04.18

Seen some impressive sunsets over the last week and once again tonight didn't disappoint.  These are the moments that drive me to keep on going!  Guernsey at its best :)

SPRING CHICKENS

10.04.18

Mum taking her kids for a casual wander round the lanes of St Saviour.  The chicks must only be a few days old, one needed a little helping hand when it got left behind.  

BLOOM

09.04.18

Spotted this Plum tree in full bloom near Saints Bay.  Never had the opportunity to shoot with film so the next best thing is to experiment with Nik software.  Vintage Camera - Anolog Efex Pro 2 with some freestyling.

Art for arts sake.

SCUBA CAT

08.04.18

The only break in the clouds over the whole day!  I've visited this beach a fair few times the last month but never been happy with the conditions. I think I can finally let it go and move on now!

SUN SEEKERS

07.04.18

Me and Finley went to watch the sunset together and I couldn't have asked for a better night to take him.  Obviously the camera had to come along for the journey too!

ROCQUAINE

05.04.18

I had set up on the beach an hour before this but the tides slowly forced me out.  These fishing boats should be back in action very soon.

PULIAS

04.04.18

Another battle with sea spray which nearly got the better of me  but I persevered and made the best I could from a bad situation. 

DUCKLINGS

03.04.18

Spring is well and truly underway and you can't get more seasonal than ducklings.  I found 6 of them hanging around the Little Chapel on my travels.

EASTER HILL CLIMB

03.04.18

The annual bank holiday hill climb.  Spent a few hours down there but didn't really push myself to get the shot I was after.  It's one of those events that needs a small set of 5-10 images to sum it up rather than a single image.

EASTER SUNDAY

01.04.18

Busy day seeing family and firends, eating lots of food (mostly chocolate) finished off with Toy Story III under the douvet.  

MOG

31.03.18

Mog and Maui finding their feet in their new home.  Those blue eyes are something else :)

GOOD FRIDAY

30.03.18

I have the task of entertaining the kids for 9 days over Easter.  Today I found out it will be raining for all of those days!  

FAKE FRIDAY

29.03.18

One of those days where the weather changes from one extreme to the next in minutes but I did leave the house early enough to watch the sun come up.
