Namibia's east wind transformed the coastal dunes into an inferno of blowing sand. We went straight in! Blowing sand stung our feet, pelted our equipment, filled our eyes. But time stood still: We were immersed in intense beauty, gone too soon!

I've seen remarkable things in my years of chasing, but this scene from my first year remains a favorite. Here, the flanking line of a supercell is painted by the setting Sun, while the very clouds you're looking at cast shadows for miles (seen as anticrepuscular rays near the horizon). #photography
A line of clouds stretches across the frame from center left to center right above a green field. The clouds have a relatively flat base, with the bottom third of them painted a deeply saturated pinkish-orange by the setting Sun (which is out of frame directly behind me). The rest of the clouds are mostly whitish-gray. Between the base of the clouds and the horizon, shadows cast by the clouds extend for miles into the distance, appearing as dark streaks that converge at a point on the horizon.

I’ve felt a little disheartened on this platform lately. How are we finding it collectively for photography?

Here’s a previously unshared photograph of a beautiful woodland trail, where warm light leads the way into the autumnal colours.

A KLM airplane performing base training somewhere in Denmark. In the foreground there is a Danish pennant at the top of a tall flag pole. The sky is a bright blue with some light white clouds.

#Photography #Birds
Early days of my photography in december 2004 with a Canon 300D with 18-55 kit lens during a photowalk in Rotterdam.
Pigeons startled and flying up in the air in a street somewhere in Rotterdam. The image is looking flat and more like a painting due to the use of an on-board camera flash.

Jernhallen near Ebeltoft, Syddjurs ("South Djursland" in Denmark. We're overlooking the water Hjelm Dyb, which according to the internet was the inspiration for Tolkien's "Helm's Deep".

11th July 2025, Canon R6m2 + EF24-105 f/4L @ 24mm
View looking almost directly south from the top of the 49m tall protected hill Jernhatten ("Iron Helmet") overlooking the water of Hjelm Dyb ("Helms Deep") and the little island Hjelm. Whispy which clouds reach across a blue sky. Blue and green in the shallow water reveals that there are banks of kelp covering the sand and rocks in the water. The water ends at a rocky beach. Far down a couple of people are walking the beach.

Waiting for a bus at a shitty bus station in 2008.
From my archives, 2008. Black and white version. The canopy of the waiting area has horizontal lines going across the frame against a blown out sky. Pillars show letters for various bus bays, and digital clocks show a time of 14:44.

Another one from my archives from 2004. Canon 300D with 18-55 kit lens.

(Unfortunately I only have the recovered JPG previews for the photos I shot in Voorburg that day, not the original RAW files).
Looking up the stairs to the platform at the NS station at Voorburg in 2004. The Nederlandse Spoorwegen are the Dutch Railways. The walls are a bright green hue, the stairs are dark and barely lit, and the railings are a bright red. Sunlight is lighting the glass canopy which is arching over the stairs and our view. A blue sky with light clouds is visible in the background and through the glass canopy.

From 2012, Canon 40D with EF 2.8L 70-200 IS USM I at 85mm
A well known parabolic mirror in the Nottingham City Centre called the Sky Mirror reflecting some buildings and a blue sky with clouds.

Quite an oldie from 2012, somewhere in the Nottingham city centre.
A sign that reads "ONE WAY" including an arrow to indicate the direction of travel. It is painted in white on somewhat irregularly textured asphalt.

Earlier in Syddjurs in Denmark: sun dogs! First time I've ever seen these myself. Pretty!
#photography #sundogs #mobilephotography #pixel7
The sun is peaking around the edge of a cloud in a slightly cloudy sky. A large coloured circle surrounds the sun, and two sun dogs are clearly visible. The atmospheric effect has several rainbow tints.

I don't know who to credit for this, but it's funny (IMO).
A man in a gray shirt crouches with four clowns holding guns. Text reads: "That guy from The Atlantic." They are outside, near a wall.

Bloke at work switched to decaf and instantly became an arsehole. I started filling his instant decaf jar with regular caffeinated instant. Sorry Nick, But I'd rather work with the nice one.

A little bit of colour in an otherwise still green and brown garden. Can't wait for spring to start popping the flowers around this property!

Canon R6 MkII with EF converter and EF 100 2.8L Macro. Minimal processing done.

I was fully used to late nights and late mornings, but my sleep schedule has been totally overthrown now that we've moved and there's so much to do around the property. Even experiencing sunrises now.
A Danish pennant ("vimpel") on a tall flag pole in a garden on a cold morning in Denmark. Tree tops lit by a golden sunrise line the garden and the adjacent road. A dog is sniffing around in the garden.
