Mission Church
Back to Blist’s Hill Victorian Town. This is the 19th century Mission Church in the township – a far cry from the traditional stone-built churches that are associated with the UK. This was more a large hut made from ‘wriggly tin’. Indeed to me it looks as though it could have come from somewhere on […]

Still Waters
It is rare to see rivers as calm as the Earn was the evening I was at Kinkell Bridge. A combination of low water resulting in low flow and a still evening meant that the water was mirror like. The position of the sun and clouds allowed a serindipidous symmetrical composition (normally a no-no). This […]

Old Banger
No sooner was I back from Germany than we were visiting friends in the Wye Valley along the border between England and Wales. The area around our friends’ house is criss-crossed with footpaths and other trails. Walking along one of these we saw this sad old car in ‘fixer upper’ condition in a small barn. […]

Approaching Storm
It seems you can never be certain of plain sailing, even on a fine day. I turned round while on a ferry on Lake Garda and saw this yacht sailing into a squall and just grabbed the shot instinctively. The image works in colour, largely because it is essentially monochromatic in nature: But once again […]

High Mountain Afternoon
The weather steadily improved during our stay in Morzine. The third and final day was a glorious example of spring skiing in the Alps. There was still plenty of snow under warm blue skies – warm enough for some brave souls to be skiing in shorts. The rumble of avalanches could be heard from time […]

The Gloaming
Stepping back in time a few minutes from yesterday’s post, the sky held the glow of the sun after it had dropped below the horizon. There was just enough light to bring out the subtle gradients at the very top of the Howe of Fife. With virtually no clouds, the colour in the sky did […]

Morning Sky
So many times I see a wonderful sunrise on the way to work. This was a rare occasion when I could stop to grab a shot. Like all low light shots with a small sensor camera this is a bit of a compromise with digital noise in the shadows. The hill in the background is […]

Steam and Sail
The Clyde has been a centre for shipping for hundreds of years, although it is now a shadow of its former self. It was quite appropriate to stand next to Waverley and look over to the sailing barque Glenlee. Just down the river (and out of picture) is the yard where the Royal Navy’s latest […]
