This little dude turned 6 today. He still gives the best hugs and makes me laugh with his cheeky humor. To say I put off having kids for a years, the love and happiness they bring is something you can’t find anywhere else. Happy birthday Finley!

Probably the most peaceful and calmest morning I’ve seen since the end of last summer. No wind, clear skies and a beautiful low mist hanging over the common.

Left the house with little time to plan anything this morning. You can always rely on the Bathing Pools to fill in the gaps.

The older I get, the more I see myself living in a nice cosy farmhouse. This barn caught my eye from the hill overlooking L’Ancresse.

Finally after three days of greyness, the summer has returned! Still had to double up the layers this morning thought.

Went back to the patch I visited a few days ago. The bad news, half has been mowed, the good news, they sensitively left half to let nature do it’s thing.
Towards the end of the day, you can notice the butterflies hide near the ground making it extremely difficult to get a clear shot through the grasses. This is the best I could get.

Spoiled for choice and species in the fields with the warmth of the summer sun. This is one of the smallest butterflies in the UK and getting a close macro shot in the wind is tricky but out of 100 shots, 5% were in focus!

When the sun comes out on a Sunday afternoon, you can always rely on a good old Guernsey kiosk to satisfy the taste buds. The citrus cake was unbelievably good!

Sleep by day, play by night. She can get a little jumpy after feeding and misting. There’s been a few flying attempts that didn’t go too well.

One of my favourite spots in Herm, above Mouisonniere Beach, looking towards Alderney Point. There just something about the vast open common and stunning views out to sea that takes you away from everything.

A perfectly timed and picturesque rain storm as the sun rises over L’Ancresse in the distance. The umbrella was a life saver for this one!

Hay Bales! Walked around by the clay pigeon range near Mont Herault, aimlessly experimenting with hay bales. Eventually settled for the contrast between the golden grasses and the emphasis on the blue sky.

Feeling fed up, tired and frustrated with no inspiration, this robin landed on a fence next to me just as I opened my boot to put my gear away. He stayed for 5 shots then disappeared.

Treated the kids to a dip + dine at Saints Bay Hotel today. Whilst the grounds could do with some TLC, the pool was like a bath and the food was really tasty too.

Long exposure can be extremely rewarding sometimes. With the right amount of cloud cover and wind speed you can create some streaky effects in the sky.

Pushing my luck with the waves on this one but the desired effect and lighting was achieved.
