I used to #CycleRide through Hackney Fields early mornings. It was often misty, and I tried to capture those amazing mornings on #camera so many times. I finally took this with my 20-year-old snaps camera set to vivid. The zoom (only x2.5) was maxed out, so it's fuzzy. Kinda like it! #photooftheday

I sometimes despair that the camera can never really capture just how amazing the natural world can be. But sometimes, just sometimes, the winter light hits those reeds and all those reflections pop... #birds #birdphotography #birding #photooftheday #photography #NatureIsAmazing

As a dedicated fan of both #DoctorWho & #SherlockHolmes it’s always seemed to me that either Holmes is an incarnation of The Doctor. Or The Doctor is the Sherlock Holmes of his particular universe. So maybe it's no surprise that I've written a book about the good Doctor...#WhoLock

I've been running at #2026 pretty hard recently... time for a little R&R. And what better way is there to spend a day than in a hide, with lashings of hot tea and a mountain of cakes from my favourite bakers, @PoptyBakeryLtd Look at the size of that iced finger! #birdwatching

Today's share is a #photograph that I converted into #blackandwhite then added spot colour to. Always fun to play around with images, but it's interesting how much like an illustration it looks. #photooftheday #photographer #photographyisart

It's not one of my best #photograph but I really like the composition and how the reflections combine to make it look almost like a tapestry. And having just taken part in the @rspbcymru.bsky.social #BigGardenBirdWatch a #bird photo seemed apt too! #NatureLovers #wildlifephotography #birdwatching
