Cemetery Tour :: Nunhead (in black and white)

Nunhead is a glorious old place. I summarized my trip earlier in the Summer in this post, but wanted to share these few shots in black and white I also captured that day.






Ooh, moody.

London Diary :: Peckham

After visiting the glorious Nunhead Cemetery a few months ago, I walked around the back streets to Peckham in search of food and the train home. These are some images I captured along the way.






Stay tuned for a few more shots from Nunhead in black and white later this week - and you can throw back to my previous post sharing the images I captured in colour that day over here.

Travel Diary :: Lost in Scotland.

Over Easter I spent some time in Scotland and we spent a couple of days out of the city taking in some nearby countryside.

First, the beautiful town of Luss on the shores of Loch Lomond, which is one of my favourite little spots in Scotland. Whether it be heaving with people escaping the city for the day in the middle of Spring, or empty, grey and raining in the middle of Winter, its always such a special little spot.




I also got to enjoy something I've wanted to take in for a very long time - a wind farm, up close.



Not from the seat of a train or plane. From the ground, sitting in the heather and undergrowth watching grouse fly back and forth and listening to that eerie hum of the blades as they rotate slowly in the wind.


We drove to Whitelee Windfarm which is the largest in Britain, and is located a short drive from Glasgow. Its not only impressive as a working windfarm, its also a wonderful spot to go for a walk in the relative wilderness, watch some wildlife and generally enjoy a bit of S P A C E.

Which after being cramped in any city for a while, is always a welcome relief.

Wildlife Photographer of the Year :: People's Choice Awards

This year, the wonderful Wildlife Photographer of the Year team are calling for US to vote for our favourite from a selection of 50 photographs. Some are obviously cute, some are artistically delightful. I've voted for one that is both (see above; Australian Sea Lions by Michael Patrick O'Neill) - you have until September 5th to cast your vote and should do so here.

I guess this is as good a place as any to reveal that I'm starting an internship working with the team behind the scenes on the upcoming exhibition at the Natural History Museum from September, which is going to be several layers of amazing and I am super excited about!

The Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition will as always open in October, and if you are into this kind of thing you should probably check out the WPY blog because it is all kinds of cool.

Travel Diary :: New Zealand (in black & white)

Just a few snap shots I had forgotten about from my trip to New Zealand earlier this year to shoot a beautiful wedding that were floating around in my black and white film stash...



Form an orderly queue ladies.

In case you missed the previous posts in this series, I took you on a tour of some of my favourite beaches on colour film in July, and earlier in the year I shared with you Rachel & Warren's beautiful wedding day, which was an absolute joy to shoot and be a part of.
