The exothermic chemical reactions of heat, light, gas and sound. A controlled self sustained explosion which looks like the center of a galaxy.

The stunning transformation of the Gingko tree in Candie Gardens. I’m no tree expert but this one has to be a few hundred years old.

The 5th day of non stop rain and it’s getting harder and harder to find inspiration. I don’t really want to push the weather sealing on the camera too much more!
However, the misty rain rolled in and there was only on place I could think of to make the best out of a pretty crap day. Think this is the third version this year, it’s just up a path from Saints Bay road. It reminds me of the creature form Stranger Things.

Built into many traditional Guernsey houses were granite plinths, designed to stop rainwater seeping in the gable of thatched roofs, they provide an ideal resting ground for the witches.

It’s just a wet leaf on a saturated tree stump but I struggled to even pull the camera out my bag today. Made me realise how shooting for 5 years not stop can catch up with you!

Playing with the new blue lights installed around the market. It’s that time of year when daylight shooting is limited during the week so I feel a few more night shoots over the final 65 days!

With the digital world and chain stores taking over our lives, little independent shops are disappearing fast. That said, this little paper shop has been around as far back as I can remember and has always been a a great convenient shop. Packet of Rizla and a drink, in and out in less than minute.

Our first born is fast approaching 9 years old! She can be such an angel but there are hints of a teenager lurking around the corner and I’m not sure I’m ready for it.

This is the Fermain Tower, recently converted to a self catering unit.

Getting these two to have a photo together is becoming more and more difficult as they get older (probably fed up it) but we got there in the end, even though Mrs Know It All on the left just wanted to pull silly grins!
