    Reykjavík and the Aurora (Northern Lights) – Iceland

    This is probably the most photographed scene in Iceland, but I couldn’t help myself. The recent addition of several high rise flat blocks unfortunately obscures the sun from the sculpture for a lot of the day. One of main excitements for the trip was to see the Northern Lights. Iceland is one of those mythical…

    I had never really spent any time in the Cornish Moors before, so on a beautiful sunny March morning I went for a walk around Bodmin Moor. All I can say is, wow! There is such variety, even on the small section I went around. Strange rock structures, horses, quarries, lakes, streams and everything in between.…

    A friend of mine has recently moved to Cornwall so I took the opportunity to go and explore. As it happens the train journey from London to Truro is one of the most stunning rail journeys imaginable. The train line snakes along parallel to the coast for numerous miles, passing flooded plains, small fishing harbours, tidal walls and…

    I have many childhood memories of shivering in one Cornish town or another on a English ‘summer’ holiday. Earlier in the year I went with my mum and sisters for a long weekend in and around Charlestown in Cornwall. These quaint small towns feel untouched by modern life, the boats still slowly sail out to…

    In the last few years a lot of people have upgraded to larger displays, so I decided to up the size of the pictures I am putting on my blog and also remove the watermark I used to put on them to make it a cleaner, hopefully more enjoyable experience to view my photographs. I…

    I am back in London after a month in New Zealand. New Zealand is one of the most amazing countries I have ever been to. It has one of the most varied and extraordinary landscapes in the world. First it’s rolling hills, then into ranging mountains then back into rainforest all within a few hours.…

  • Olympic fallout

    The amount of light pumped out by the stadium is staggering, literally lighting up the night sky around it. From my flat you could just see some of the fireworks in the closing ceremony of the London Olympic games. After the fireworks had finished you could see a plume of smoke rising from the stadium…

    Last night was the official completion of the outside work on The Shard building. To celebrate there was a light and laser show, I popped down to the banks of the Thames to take some photos of the tallest building in SE1, and the whole of Western Europe for that matter. Towards the end of…

    Natural stone arch Aiguille Percée, Tignes, the Alps, France January 2012. An amazing and weird structure coming out of the snow. I have never got round to hiking up to it, something I really want to do though. Taken with Canon S100 point and shoot! Amazing little camera, review coming soon.

    I was in Tignes, France last week. The views of the mountains are always breath taking.
