The local wildlife around here is never far away, however some ignore you and some are hard to track down, here is one of each.
Winter mornings in the New Forest
Winter morning’s in the New Forest never fail to delight. At this time of year the colours are rich and the morning skies are clear and crisp, a photographers dream.
New Forest Wildlife
Early morning walks in the New Forest and surrounding farms never fail to deliver. The wildlife is everywhere around you, watching your every move, even when you can’t see them.
Sunsrise and Sunsets
Some early starts and late finishes have delivered some lovely sunrise and sun sets over the forest. The heather and the ponds make for great foregrounds, now I just need a well positioned pony in the picture but they are less predictable.
After the storms….
These photos are taken in the northern part of Hampshire’s New Forest and show the after effects of the storms that have hit us in July 2021. The sodden ground and the cloudy skies have typified this months walks across the forest.
First photos from the New Forest
British MX GP
Taken at the UK Motocross Grand Prix in Matterely basin, Hampshire in March 2019. One day I’ll photograph this event with clear skies and great lighting, but till then we will live with the flat light and bright colours!
Angkor Wat; one of the 7 wonders of the world
This must be one of the most amazing places in the world, but get there very early before half of China arrive and stand infant of your lens!
Life on the Mekong river
The Mekong river is central to the lives of those who live along its banks, it supports their mode of transport, supplies their morning fish and their homes are built along its shore. These photos were taken on the Mekong delta in Vietnam and up into Cambodia during the dry season (March 2019)

Street Photography
I enjoy the challenge of street photography so I don’t understand why I don’t take more of it. Here is a selection from the last few years taken from all around the world – Venice, Cape Verde, Sicily, Prague… what is common is the happiness on the faces.
