Evening everyone, here's my first post of 2021 😂

The past 12 months have felt like 12 years

I was gonna say that this pic symbolises the current mood. Lots of good things just round the corner. Vaccinations, easing of lockdown restrictions etc etc

But let's be honest for a minute. It's 2021 and the world is so messed up. Not because of covid, but because of the way we treat each other.

Women's rights, black rights, trans rights have all been in the news recently and always for the wrong reasons. People are derided in the media and on social media as irresponsible and selfish for protesting issues which are in fact just basic human rights.

It was only 12 months ago when we all pushed a well known celeb to kill herself, and we all said then a few months later, like clockwork, we did the exact same thing to a woman who's only crime was to marry into the Royal Family, and maybe being a little bit black 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think if this pandemic has taught us anything it's that life and freedom are precious things. Let's work on treating each other with kindness and respect. And if you can't do that, maybe stay in lockdown a while longer 😂

Let's see if I remember how to do this.....

Long time no see instapeeps.

It's been over two months since my last post. In that time I've moved house, had surgery, had another bloody lockdown, and done basically zero photography.

But photography isn't everything, and sometimes life comes first. Hope everyone is well and staying safe.

Make sure to eat a substantial meal and get home before 10pm so Covid doesn't get you 👍

Evening everyone

Sorry not sorry for all the dog spam as of late. It won't be ending anytime soon 😏

Here's Asher wondering why we walked so far from the water, when obviously the only reason we leave the house is so she can go swimming 🤷🏻‍♂️

Morning all 👍⁣

Here's Ruby, advising you to 'be more dog' ⁣

I've enjoyed testing out my new 70-180mm f2.8⁣

With its bold claims of Sony GM performance but for half the cost and half the weight, I'm certainly enjoying handling it and the results so far are impressive. ⁣

Ok maybe it's not an original composition 🤷🏻‍♂️⁣

But when you get this classic view, with a perfect pastel sunset behind, you've gotta fire off a snap or two ⁣

Stay safe everyone 👍⁣

Well I tried my best to make the most of the heather⁣

Work got in the way quite a bit, no change there 🤷🏻‍♂️⁣

But tbh with the amount of people facing uncertainty in their jobs due to Covid 19 I don't mind so much. I count myself as one of the lucky ones.⁣

Here's another shot from Langdale⁣

Needed a tripod for this one as the exposure time for the foreground was 8 seconds⁣
