Joe Cornish, the great British landscape photographer, advocates taking most of your photographs no more than thirty minutes from your home. So, here's my blog featuring pictures either thirty minutes drive or walk away from my front door or from the place where I'm staying for a few days. I'll also be writing about photography in general from time to time. Please enjoy!

Newborough Forest

The last day of the Easter break saw me wandering around Newborough Forest near Maeltraeth, Anglesey. It was a new location to explore and the light and weather were quite stunning. I found several lovely glades where new life was blooming and captured spring at its very best. Please enjoy this small selection of pictures...

I've Known Mornings White as Diamonds*

Click the image for the bigger picture
Tuesday dawned cold, clear and crisp with a sharp hoar frost so I packed a lightweight camera kit and set off on the numerous footpaths near home in search of things to photograph. I shared my three hour trek with robins, blue tits, rabbits, lapwing, fieldfares and assorted other wild things exploring a couple of footpaths I'd not been along before. This lovely scene - yes, the sky really was that blue! - was a bit of a challenge to expose correctly. I think this is the pick of the images I took during my walk. I hope you like it.
