I love this photo as it brings back many great memories. My camera (a Canon 400D) doesn’t have a flip screen, so to create these shots this low down on water, I simply had to wade my way out to a stream on the beach, hang my camera by my knees so my fingertips just trail the water, blindly take a few shots and hope something great arises.

I was speaking at a conference during the evening and arrived at Peterborough mid-afternoon. My Mum, who is in her 80’s had mentioned to see the cathedral, if I had time. I was not disappointed and the £3 filming fee was well worth it. An amazing cathedral with some fascinating history.

My grandfather was a choral scholar at this collage before WW2. He sat in the seat you can’t quite see on the in the far right corner, right beside the organ pipes. I grew up in Cambridge and whenever we had visitors from out of town, we took them here and I’d feel closer to my grandfather (who died when I was about 18). I tried for a long time to take a picture which showed it off to it’s full majesty, and this is as close as I’ve ever got! If you get the chance to visit, you really should.

Went to Drop My rod bag off with Jayne at the Dairy Barn Ingham, did her websites for years - never met in the flesh. My daughter made herself at home. Took this pic. Right outside her house. OS Grid Ref SK947834

Im a student, I live in London 9 out of the 12 months so when I visit home, there is no better feeling than breathing the fresh air and exploring my surroundings. Ashby Ville is a lake which took the life of one of my close friends when I was younger, the council took action and made the area safer and more environmentally friendly, it was great to explore the new land.

Recently I headed to Colchester Zoo, Essex, UK for an experience day that my mum was booked into. It was one of the weekends that we had a fair bit of snow, so not many animals were out, but there wasn’t many people at the zoo either. Thankfully, these tigers were outside enjoying the snow and made for some really nice photos :)

The meerkat or suricate (Suricata suricatta) is a small carnivoran belonging to the mongoose family (Herpestidae). It is the only member of the genus Suricata.[3] Meerkats live in all parts of the Kalahari Desert in Botswana, in much of the Namib Desert in Namibia and southwestern Angola, and in South Africa - Wikipedia. Colchester Zoo has a really nice Meerkat enclosure. I think there’s about 15-20 living in it and they’re all incredibly active. This one saw me hanging about with my 100-400mm zoom lens and perched himself up high. Really fun animals, always great to photograph!

This Meerkat was obviously intrigued by my Canon 100-400mm lens as he didn’t move!

We took a walk in Bradgate park, Leicestershire to try out a new camera. The park is an enclosed deer park where the deer can roam free. The path ran along side some ferns, and as we reached it, a we saw a deer disappear into the greenery, with only it’s antlers showing. We moved in line with the deer, hoping it would look up, but only when my wife started making noises with her mouth did we get it’s attention. It looked up, and straight at us, and with full zoom I managed to capture a few pictures before it ran away. I love the colours in this shot, and how the ferns frame the deer’s head.

Its quite rare that we see snow in England before Christmas. It really brings our old towns to life and gives such a great atmosphere.

Walking along the river in Hampsted Heath public park found in London, a friend said it is her dream house, to have a view of the park and the river. I decided to capture that moment.

On a walk around the Granary Square/Kings Cross area of London, this building caught my eye - brand new and unused, it was nevertheless a striking colour especially matched against the bright blue sky.

I was catching up with an old friend and noticed this tree compared to others had really started to blossom. Standing there, I realised I was peering through something that had just begun its life to look at something already so full of life. That’s this wonderful city, London, for you.

Early in the morning, to have the best light and less people. It was the last day of my trip in London which was wonderful and so sunny, nothing better to end it than seeing one of the best symbol of London!

I’ve always wanted to photograph the Millennium Bridge. Numerous posts on Instagram made it seem like a fascinating destination - especially at sunrise and sunset. The only issue? The sun rose far to early in the morning and too many people were around at golden hour. With that in mind, I decided to try something a bit different using a ND filter.

Took this on March 22nd, the same date as the terrorist attacks at Westminster. City activity still in full swing. Buildings looking great on a chilly night and the day-to-day hustle on the Thames continues.

Passing through City Hall, I decided to sit on the grass verge by the river Thames and capture the atmosphere here. It is usually a crowded place and this day was no different. People come here to chill out, enjoy the view or have a drink at the nearby pop up bar.

Always wanted to photograph this beautiful 12th century church, damaged in the Great Fire and then finished off by a bomb in WWII. It is now a garden in the City of London, and a lovely place to have lunch.

My first real attempt at infrared photography. Didn’t have a clue what I was doing and still don’t. No idea why the bush on the left is glowing or why there are red particles everywhere but it was taken just after seeing Hotel Artemis. Overall really pleased with this photo, the mix of grain and red particles really appeals to me.
