The Last Rose of Summer

I made this image earlier today in our garden, where this rose is blooming - the last of the year, I suspect.

Olympus Has Fallen

Another image made using my new Pen-F, this time inside Chester Cathedral.

Olympus Mons

I have a new camera, and Olympus Pen F. This is one of the first images I made using it, during a recent visit to Liverpool

Paradise Lost(withiel)

Another image from our visit to the Eden Project.

Eden Hazard

I made this image during a summer holiday visit to the Eden Project. It was somewhere in the rainforest biome, I think.

Return to Castle Drogo

A final image in this set - promise.

Getting Our Money's Worth

This image was made during a recent visit to Dyrham Park - we've been caining our NT member this summer...

Drogo's Castle II

Another image from the gardens of Castle Drogo. There may be a few more to come, so brace yourselves.

Drogo's Castle

As we're back on the subject of flowers, here's an image of another. This was made in the gardens of Castle Drogo, on a recent trip to Cornwall.

Poppy Appeal

"I know that I repeat myself when I've got nothing left"

So here's a picture of a poppy.

Why, Boston?

Recently, I attended the IET's Safety Critical Systems Course at Wyboston Lakes. I can't recommend the place. This was taken on an early morning walk round the fishing lake.

Doing the Charlestown

We visited Charlestown recently - that's the one in Cornwall. Apparently, some filming for Poldark is conducted there.

On leaving, I noticed this chapel, which seemed like the only authentic building in the place, whatever that means.

Horsing Around

Another evening walk with the cubs, this time to Wavering Down. These horses were wondering around near the triangulation point, and I made this image just as we were leaving.

Maunsel Lock II

A second image from the Maunsel Lock set.

The Last Maunsell

Maunsell Lock this Sunday.

Knoll Point

Another, and final, image from the Brent Knoll stroll.

Holm Run

Another image from the evening stroll up Brent Knoll, this time of Flat Holm.

What's the Point?

Evening light on Hinkley Point, viewed from Brent Knoll, on an evening stroll with the local cub pack.

Garden Reflections

Another image from the Bishop's Palace visit a few weeks ago, made in the Garden of Reflection.

The Tulip Touch

A visit to the Bishop's Palace in Wells on Good Friday resulted in this image.

Completely in Vein

Yet another image from Mothers' Day, which doesn't, to my knowledge, feature a mother.

In a Different Vein

Another image from the Cannington Walled Garden set.

In a Similar Vein

This image was made in the greenhouse at Cannington Walled Garden during a Mother's Day visit.

A Dark, Blustery Afternoon...

The front at Burnham-on-Sea this afternoon. Believe it or not, I haven't desaturated this image.

What a Drain

This is an image of the King's Sedgemoor Drain, made after sunset, looking due West. The sluice gate that you can just about see in the centre of the image is the coastal outfall.

The Organ Stops at Killerton

Pretty much what it says on the tin. We went to Killerton over the Christmas holidays. The weather was good, and the place was heaving - National Trust is about the only thing open over Christmas.

Pile On

Yet another image from the Burtle set.

A Tree In Winter

Another image from the Burtle set. Once the sun had set, a mist started to rise.

Peat & Dud

Another image from the Burtle peat works set.

Where's Lorry? Repudiated

On reflection (pun intended), I decided that I didn't particularly like the previous image, so here's an alternative treatment of the same subject.
