As you might expect, I decided to photograph this evening's partial solar eclipse. You might be surprised to learn I've already edited them and posted them. #eclipse #photography #sun #solar #nature

At various points last year I went out shooting some mainline steam. Definitely addictive. Reviewing these shots has made me excited for the tours coming my way this coming winter. #steam #steamlocomotive #locomotive #railwaysofbritain #railwayheritage

It's been a while since I posted a big set of images from Dorset. At least without steam engines in them. So here is a compendium of images from Swanage in 2024. #photography #dorset #swanage #travel #water

It's back to the @bluebell_railway again for their Model Railway Weekend, and what I think are a pretty decent assortment of shots considering the heat and resulting lack of locomotive exhaust. #steam #steamlocomotive #locomotive #heritagerailway #railwaysofbritain

A report from that time I went to a small town in the south of France and took some photos. #photography #travelphotography #france #travel #europe

It's back to the @bluebell_railway for their Road Meets Rail event last month. Featuring three great steam locomotives, and a whole host of steam-powered road traction and industry. #steam #steamlocomotive #locomotive #heritagerailway #railwaysofbritain

It's once again time for what has almost become an annual tradition: posting a collection of the odd shots that don't have a home anywhere else. Featuring big cats, derelict buildings, the Moon, and some views from the railway. #photography #abandoned #medley #oddballs #creativity

I think I timed my annual bluebell-spotting trip to the Bluebell Railway a bit better this year, and came back with some much better shots than last time. #steam #steamlocomotive #locomotive #heritagerailway #railwaysofbritain

Last week, I headed out to the UK Owl and Raptor Centre to photograph a series of owls looking absolutely stunning amongst some bluebells, and in flight. A grand day out. . #wildlifephotography #wildlife #naturephotography #wildlife_perfection #birdsofprey @owlandraptorcentre

A few weeks ago I ticked another of my 2026 goals off the list, when I attended the Swanage Railway Spring Gala. Another railway I will definitely be returning to. . #steam #steamlocomotive #locomotive #heritagerailway #railwaysofbritain @swanagerailwayofficial

A couple of weeks ago I spent time at the Bluebell Railway Spring Gala. As you can imagine, photos were taken, which can be seen on my website alongside the story behind the shots. #steam #steamlocomotive #locomotive #heritagerailway #railwaysofbritain @bluebell_railway
