2/5 Dunwich Heath From a few weeks ago before the devastating wild fire. Purple, greens and golds - but the gold mostly means dried out and inflammable. #DunwichHeath #photography #suffolk

3/5 Dunwich Heath Not all of Dunwich Heath is gorse, heather and fern, there are some wooded spots too. Here&#39;s where the path goes through a tunnel. #photography #DunwichHeath #Suffolk

4/5 Dunwich Heath If you want to know why wildfire has destroyed much of Dunwich Heath, here&#39;s clue. This was a fern, here&#39;s it&#39;s kindling and now it&#39;s probably ash. #photography #DunwichHeath #Suffolk

Throwback Saturday - asked for a snap with a #water theme I immediately thought of #reflections. Here&#39;s one from Canary Wharf from 2018, taken with a #Konica 40mmf1.8 lens on a Sony A7ii. It&#39;s a DLR train at the bottom. #photography #cityscape

1/5 Amersfoort Back to the Netherlands in June for a set from #Amersfoort - not that far from Amsterdam and a historic pretty town worth visiting. #photography #reflections #netherlands #cityscape

5/5 It had to be another #reflections shot to finish this set, beating all the looking up narrow streets full of old buildings shots that I also took. The tower in the background (which has lost its attached church) was once the geographical centre of the country. #photography #amersfoort #cityscape

Here&#39;s a composite of my (partial) #eclipse images . The sun is surprisingly small which presented a challenge when I realised that my only appropriate filter was a 58mm 16 stop ND. Luckily my #fourthirds 75-300 mm lens has a 58mm front element so I used that with a 1.4 teleconverter. I shot out of a bedroom window and the sun went behind trees so I couldn&#39;t get full symmetry. Slices are in a reply #photography #astrophotography

Throwback Saturday Today&#39;s theme is #earth, so here&#39;s a shot from May 2025 of Aldenham Reservoir (just over the NW London border) showing extremely low water levels - probably the same now - revealing a lot of #earth. It&#39;s an #infrared #fullspectrum shot. #photography #drought #blackandwhite #classicmono

I went to the Anish Kapoor exhibition at the Hayward Gallery this week. I liked the sunstar on this shot of one of his mirror sculptures (and you can find a tiny selfie). Laowa 7.5mm f2 lens on Panasonic GX85. #photography #anishkapoor #sunstar #HaywardGallery

Throwback Saturday. Looking for a snap with a #summer theme I thought this shot of the River Chess from June 2021 captured what English summer days mean to me - not the scorchio weather of this year. #photography #landscapephotography

Looking for an image to illustrate #growing I thought this fern fiddlehead was just right. Coils within coils - shot in Tasmania in 2023. #photography #macro #fern #fiddlehead

Looking for a snap with a #wide theme I thought of this panorama I shot in Wyoming's Grand Teton National Park. It's probably too wide for social media. #panorama #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #reflection #GrandTeton

I'm no great fan of Canada Geese but their goslings are cute. Shot just over a month ago on the River Lea near Waltham Abbey. #photography #birds #birdphotography #geese #goslings #stunday

Throwback Saturday. Looking for a photo with an #odd theme, I thought of this snap from 2018 taken at the Royal Academy summer show of a tiny head in a gallery corner. It caught my eye, and I then learned it was submiitted as a joke by Joe Lycett. #photography #gallery
