Back in August I went for a walk on #Dartmoor with Helen the Communications Officer from @dpadartmoor.bsky.social to shoot some fairy tale influenced images to illustrate the amazing "Wild Words" anthology she is curating 😍 Check it out here : dartmoorpreservation.co.uk/wild-words/

The View From Above💚
Yesterday I decided to give 10 minutes a day to working on things I've so far managed to not get around to doing.
One of those things was flying the drone for absolutely no real reason apart from getting in some practise ... #northlew #devon #dronephotography

I usually add some vignetting in post (just because I like it) you don't need to with this lens, it's so tiny it doesn't cover the sensor properly 😁
