DARKNESS FALLS

30.09.20

Final day of September and it was pretty wet. I try to save the night shots for the winter when daylight is limited but I had to pull out a wildcard this evening.

Taken from the half way up Constitution Steps overlooking the rooftops of Fountain Street and the Bordage.

THREE PINES

26.09.20

I really had to push myself to trek all the way down to the Pine Forest this morning but so glad I did. Tried finding an alternative composition ten minutes around the coast towards St Martins Point but fell back on trying to improve on my last attempt of this group of pine trees.

ALBECQ

Crazy to think that only 11 days ago the temperature was peaking at 30°C, now the arctic winds make it feel like its about to snow. Right now its warmer in the sea than outside but there’s no chance you’ll get me out it this!

PINE

21.09.20

I’d hoped for a little more moisture in the air to get more atmosphere and I had very little enthusiasm today so I’ll take a rain check on this and return when the conditions are better.

TIME OUT

20.09.20

Someone thought it was a good idea to pour crisps over Jude’s bedroom floor. I think he genuinely felt sorry for himself afterwards.

CHARTERED

19.09.20

We had tickets back for the Sark Belle but to save time we decided to charter the same two boats back to Guernsey. Best idea ever after a night in Sark!

THE STAG

Amazing weekend in Sark and Guernsey for this legend’s stag do. That’s all I can say on the matter…

THE GUERNSEY

17.09.20

Most of us take these cows for granted but they’re actually quite rare on a global scale. I’ve tried milk throughout Europe and the USA and no country comes close to producing a finer milk than Guernsey. As soon as I’ve typed this I’m heading to the fridge to grab a nice ice cold glass of milk.

YE OLDE GUERNSEY

16.09.20

If I could go back in time, I’d love to see Guernsey when it was two separate islands. I only recently found out that the Braye du Valle was never ‘filled in’, it was merely blocked up at Grande Harve and The Bridge. The Vale Pond is now the only remenant of the old channel. This old barn would have been roughly on the coastline of the northern island.
