reflections on a pond, Boars Hill, March 2012.

the pond was actually buzzing with activity as there were pond-dippers everywhere seeking out the strangest, most wiggly water creatures they could find. we found two frogs and claimed the “biggest find” accolade.

Cornwall 2010.

I will always love the seaside. aside from the inescapability of seeing the sea that comes from living on an island as wonderful as this, the feelings of salt water in your hair and gritty sand between your toes will never lose their allure. growing up in Norfolk – that curious English outpost of flat lands – cemented my love affair and my camera is always with me when I travel coast-side.
