THE KIOSK

Our saviour in the summer, the place where you can silence a child with tears of joy and a place where you can experiment with Fanta and chocolate ice cream???

The humble beach kiosk!

HOUSE SPARROW

The most common garden bird in the UK, but this one was playing around with it’s mates next to the beach. Just managed to sneak close enough to get a shot through a gap.

Classic Guernsey Dip ‘n’ Dine with my favourite humans. Left it late and only managed to squeeze in Les Douvres but the food way great and the pool was warm. Getting used to days like these.

I found it really hard to find a boat with any foreground interest until I was about to leave, the sun came out and the clouds properly lit up. Love the little mounds of sand.

HOW TO RESTRAIN YOUR CHILD - PART 1

Dig a big hole, tell them its a challenge to see who emerges first. Bury them, sit back and relax until they find a way out. Follow me for more tips and tricks.

SEA FOG

August 02, 2022 in Photography

02.08.22

Half the island’s coastline was swamped in fog for most of the day. I had some ideas but none of them turned out as I planned. This field caught my eye on the drive back from Jerbourg. Might try it again at sunrise in the hope of a nice thin layer of mist on the grass?

I’ve got some pretty high expectations for the weather over the next few weeks as I’m on holiday with the kids. This wasn’t a bad start!

I tried my best not to head down here again but when I saw how calm and misty the sea was I just had to go for it.

LEAFCUTTER BEE

Once upon a time, I assumed there were honey bees and bumble bee bees. Then you realise that there’s actually over 250 different species of bees! That’s a a lot of bees.

Always a pleasure to wander around the Pleinmont headland towards the end of the day. This was a small trek down the cliffs to a spot I found a few years back. Works better in the winter when the sun is further south so I will be back for another shot in Q4!

Normally an event we do on a Sunday but this year we packed it into to an action packed day of scarecrows, pool swimming, lunching, ice creaming, sea swimming, parking and sun setting.

COMMA

Another butterfly to check off this list this year but I’m not very happy with this shot. Only took a few and they were all out focus. This was the sharpest of the bunch.
