Photo of the day (Anne Hathaway’s cottage)


I’ve probably taken hundreds of photographs of Roche Abbey over the years (if not thousands), and it’s one of those places I never tire of capturing.

One of my favourite runs in Skiathos takes you through the towering Aleppo pines of Mandraki Forest. An area popular with hikers and it’s easy to see why.

Whether obvious or subtle, they guide the viewer’s eye, create emotion, establish structure, and transform ordinary scenes into compelling visual stories.
Understanding how lines work can dramatically improve the quality and impact of your photographs, regardless of the camera you use.

Patience.
It doesn’t always pay off, but sometimes it does, and today was one of those days. I’d waited patiently outside Bluebell Wood for about fifteen minutes, just listening to the birds with my camera. I could hear common chiffchaffs, song thrushes and even the occasional bullfinch, but none of them were in view to take a good photograph.
Then, as if by magic, a goldcrest landed on a branch a few feet away. It was almost as if it were chirping: “I know you’ve been waiting patiently for a good shot, so here’s your chance!”
Love this shot for the framing and the way the bird is looking at me. Did it really pop down just to reward my patience?
Winter sunrises are the best 👌 (taken over Dinnington Pit Top this morning).


One of my favourite things about working away is having the opportunity to explore places I’d never visit otherwise.
This ruined Scottish tower along the Ayrshire coast was within running distance of the hotel – too good an opportunity to miss to get the trainers on for a jog along the coast before the trip back home.
It felt like something out of a Gothic horror movie 🦇🏰
