Stephanie Graham

Yes, a somewhat more tricky call to make. Fortunately I have a strong US team and have delegated certain activities :)
…for now at least.

Same here- definitely not worth it at the moment. I have staff in the US & potential business need to go, but am managing not to at the moment. I’d also hoped to go to Glacier NP and Pointe Reyes but that’s definitely something that is on hold for the foreseeable future.

Not even if they paid me 😀 (not while they have a convicted sexual predator in the White House)

Thanks so much 😊

😊 thanks so much, Steve.

Fortunately for the UK, we’re not governed by the malevolent, orange, flaccid blobfish in a poorly fitting suit who currently occupies the White House.

For #WorldWildlifeDay here's one of the 7 UK species that are being pushed to the brink.

Thanks Lorraine. They’re of my favourites from last March - we need the weather gods to bring on the sunshine so that I can add some new ones.

Happy #worldwildlifeday - let’s look after all of it #birds #ukwildlife #wildlife

Thanks Marina 😊

We need t-shirts: Free the Liberton Dunnock 😆

Crime: Skulking in bushes, again?

Start: Hampshire. Ideally looking for a weekend/long weekend. Out Thurs/Fri night back Sunday night.

I started with a 24-70 then quickly realised I couldn’t photograph the red kites 🤪.
The 16-35 should give me good scope for waterfalls with mountains in the back at Glencoe ( & Skye I hope). The more I watch the more I fall in love with it. 😆 right now I’m wishing kidneys came in triplicate.

I’m in Hampshire. Jurassic coast is definitely do-able :)

I ordered this in October- it’s a similar colour/sliding door but different van altogether. His is on a MAN van I think, this is on a fiat ducato panel van and pre-built, not self built. Think mine might be slightly longer (6.3m) image is a 6m.

Thank you. That lens has been on my wish list for a long time, but can’t justify the spend v use ratio. 2 wk hire so I’ll see how I get on with it, and if needs be I’ll sell another kidney (or older kit) 😆

Thanks Glen. I looked at so many internal layouts and this ticked all the boxes. Hired a 16-35GM for the trip to Mull so that I can squeeze in some landscapes on the drive up and wide angle puffin shots too. I just need to plan a few weekend adventures to get used to it. It’s huge 😆

Two weeks until I pick up this baby ❤️ I’m getting quite excited now. I’m really looking forward to getting some weekend photography road trips planned in before heading to Mull in June.
Where should I go?

There is always a tweet.

No half-sentient person would trust Trump with a barbecue, and here we are watching him start a war to distract from his weapons grade depravity & incompetence.

A Grey Heron youngster- I’m looking forward to seeing this years starting to make an appearance #birds

My favourite podcast is here on Bluesky - I just couldn’t find them before ☺️. Here’s a link to last weeks episode.
This weeks episode is available wherever you you get your podcasts.
Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed

Remember, the cruelty IS the point.

Thank you ☺️

Beautiful 😍

Golden Eagle - that wingspan was far too large for me to capture #birds

Yeah, I really wasn’t sure :) There are some images from the day where it seems to be doing that with something that has a reddish/brown outer, and some where it has little crustacean (?) and an insect of some sort. I’ll have to see if I can zoom in on them when I finish processing.
