Another of my quick projects (or rather collections of related photos, as this is a subject I’ve visited many time before). Visiting the Lyme Regis harbour at high slack tide gave me plenty of opportunities to study the pattern of reflections on the surface ripples, in this case…

I can’t believe this is my 11th year of doing this. Anyway, this year, I chose a quirky take on the theme of “All Wrapped Up”, largely inspired by a trip earlier in the year to Suffolk, where I found a whole beach full of boats wrapped up…
This was the challenge set by Bridport Camera Club on a sunny Saturday. It’s surprisingly hard to negotiate the pavements on a busy market day and to snap your subject without annoying the general public! I’m never very comfortable with street photography, so this was quite an effort…
It’s a whole decade since I first had the idea of posting an image a day from 1st-24th December – so, welcome to my 10th advent calendar. I decided that it was a while since I’d featured any landscapes, and I had quite a lot assembled into a…

I’ve recently taken part in a couple of hand-made book workshops with Alex Hare and Lizzie Shepherd, learning how to make a simple concertina book and a Japanese stab-bound book. For the first, I chose a series of my “accidental paintings” – close-ups of weathered boat hulls. I’ve had…
Photography is, of course, “all about the light”, and early this morning I made the most of bright weather. The sea at Lyme is often very cloudy with sediment, but after a few quiet days without much rain, the water was clear enough to see the seafloor at…
