LES VARDES

04.02.22

The last few weeks (probably longer) I’ve lost all the drive and motivation. Looking back on the last 7 years, I’m finding it hard to see where this is actually going? My goal has definitely been reached and the saying goes, ‘when the fun stops, stop’!

It’s probably way past the time to let this marathon go…

HAVELET

30.01.22

I never used to give Havelet a second though as it just didn’t feel like a place I wanted to be but actually, it’s a quite a plant area. Vast sand bay with amazing views out into the channel and also a great place to watch the sun rise!

CLANK

29.01.22

A little side project I’ve been picking up over the last few weeks. Clank from the PS game Ratchet & Clank, 3D printed at work from an Fusion file I obtained. Base coat, metallic finish then details added after. Way more work cleaning it up than I though and the body still needs some work but for a first attempt it came out pretty much as I had planned. I would scale it up slightly next time.

COMMON PEOPLE

28.01.22

An opportunity not to be mist! Out on the common this morning, trying not to fall back on shooting the same angles. There was a dog walker in the scene a few minutes earlier which helped but the sun was a bit lower and it didn’t give the same golden glow as this one.

POWER STATION

25.01.22

Another struggle to find anything inspiring. Something of a landmark in the north, albeit an eyesore, the power station has been a vital part of the islands infrastructure for many years and will do for many more.

ST MARTINS CHURCH

24.01.22

Turned out to be an stunning day once the clouds had buggered off. Feeling the warm sun only face felt good. Inspiration wise, January is a shitter to get through so anything goes and sometimes you’ve just got to accept that better things will come (hopefully).

SLEEPOVER

21.01.22

Finley having his first sleepover with his school friend Teddy. They were determined to stay up till 10pm which I though was reasonable but it ended calmly and I havn’t heard a peep out of them.

SUNSET RIDER

16.01.22

Stunning winter evening, out for a stroll with the gang. The kids had their pushangs to make life easier on their little legs. Finley had a new bike for Christmas and we managed to get a helmet to match the forks.
