  • Smithfield Nocturne 2014

    Yes, I’m still going through photos I talk last year, but somehow never got around to publishing. For these we go back more than six months for the annual Smithfield Nocturne in Smithfield Market. A few here, and loads more on Flickr.

  • Walk London – High Barnet to Cockfosters

    Last weekend saw 41 different Winter Warmers walks around London, organised by Walk London and TFL. I went on the High Barnet to Cockfosters walk, with around 100 other people. Our guide mentioned that it was the biggest group he’d ever been out with! A meandering route from High Barnet tube took us through King…

  • The Sky Garden

    The Sky Garden is that rarest of things – a view of London from atop a sky scraper that is actually free of charge to visit. It sits on top of 20 Fenchurch Street, aka the walkie talkie. I believe that there was some quid pro quo done with the building’s owners letting them get…

  • Refurbishment

    This premises on Great Portland Street is using pop-culture magazines to black out its windows while it undergoes refurbishment. I can’t decide if it’s cool or sacrilegious! The naive person within me thinks that they found some magazines under some stairs somewhere and decided to use them to cover up the windows. The realist in…

  • On a Canal in a Canoe – Secret Adventures

    It being the middle of January, and therefore getting quite cold, what better way of spending a Monday evening could there be than paddling a canoe around London? This was an organised trip via “Secret Adventures“, an internet Meetup group. We set off from Moo Canoes’ base in Limehouse, heading up Limehouse Cut heading in…

  • Big Norfolk Sky

    Sheringham Beach, November 2014.

  • York

    In my ongoing project to purge my computer of photos I took in 2014, but did very little with, here are some from a trip to York nearly a year ago. Plenty more on Flickr.

  • London in Colour

    Some photos of London with some heavily treated colour. More on Flickr.

  • The Grounds of Felbrigg Hall

  • Beach Long Exposures

    A few pictures from dusk today. Lots of post-processing.

  • M42 – Orion Nebula

    I’m rather pleased with this picture of the Orion Nebula. I’ve never seen it before, sitting within Orion’s belt, and being basically invisible without an optical aid. This was taken in my first session with an iOptron Star Tracker – a mount that sits on a regular photographic tripod to allow you to take photos…

  • A Norfolk Sunset

    Testing a really big photo format. A couple more here.
