If you’re reading this, then you’re already looking at my new website. My plan is to release regular video content alongside this blog, so be sure to check out the first video once it’s live.

Since the start of the year, I’ve been taking part in a challenge to post a photo every week on the website 52frames.com. If I’m short on time, it may be a very quick, last minute photo on my phone, or some weeks I put a lot of effort in and really take my time. The theme this week was ‘Dancing’. I decided I would come at the brief from a slightly different angle, and chose to capture a wildlife shot of birds ‘in dance’. I got up for sunrise (4.30am!!) and headed down to a local reservoir, where I found a really magical scene of mist rising up from the water. Out on a little island was a hectic party of various birds that was just what I was looking for. Here’s the shot I submitted for the challenge.
I’ve also been entering the Amateur Photographer of the Year competition for 2020. The most recently judged round was ‘Up Close and Personal’, a macro photography challenge. I submitted a photo of a Hoverfly and was really pleased to finish in the top 25% – 154th place out of 668 entries. Photo below.
