PHOTOGRAPHING THE WORLD, AS I SEE IT.

  • Pumpkin Potions

    Pumpkin Potions

    If you look carefully when exploring the Harry Potter studio tour, you can find these very interesting vials of multicoloured potions. Can you name the scene in the book / film where these potions appear?

  • The Golden Mask

    The Golden Mask

    This is the start of a short run of photos taken at the Harry Potter Studio tour. This is one of the Death Eater masks, presented in a golden light. Pretty sinister, huh?

  • The Rifleman

    The Rifleman

    Here’s a historical re-enactment character. He was parading around a castle in Wales, several years ago.

  • Point Your Toes

    Point Your Toes

    Pareidolia is about seeing faces in every day objects, but I’m not sure what the word for seeing an entire human being in a plant is! Is it just me or is this plant sticking its arms out and kicking up one leg? No? Maybe it’s just me… and perhaps that’s why I can’t find…

  • The Colour Poppy

    The Colour Poppy

    Here’s an alternative version of yesterday’s poppy image, taken at the same (though from a slightly different angle) and this time in full colour.

  • The Monochrome Poppy

    The Monochrome Poppy

    Here’s a close up of a large poppy. I’m always amazed at how intricate the heart of a poppy is.

  • The Kookaburra

    The Kookaburra

    The Kookaburra takes its name from the Wiradjuri people of Australia who call it “guuguubarra” after the sound it makes.

  • The Sunlit Eagle

    The Sunlit Eagle

    What an impressive bird. It was huge!

  • Falcon Face

    Falcon Face

    This bird of prey was getting so hot on the day I took this shot, that it’s owner was gently washing it with cool water. Surprisingly (to me sr least), the bird seemed to really enjoy it.
