We have taken a leap these last few weeks and have entered one of our favourite photo competitions (I won’t say which so as not to tempt fate!). It’s daunting to think that our pictures could ever potentially be seen…

This is not a great photograph, but it is the beginning of a journey. In 2009, I started to fixate on space again. It was the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing, and the space shuttle programme was sadly…

I like this photo because it shows what you can do in your own ‘back yard.’ It was taken on the canal that live we by on one cold December afternoon. The water had frozen solid, forming a flawless sheet…

What really inspired me at the Veolia Environment Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2010 exhibition at London’s Natural History Museum, were the shots that were taken in ‘back yards’. As photographers, we are more than guilty of assuming that we…
