The view of the traditional red rooftops of Prague from the walk up to the castle.

So having spent a morning out with the camera Taiga and her cubs, Mischa, Pasha and Tatana were all feeling very photogenic!

After waiting for what felt like an age on a cold Sunday in Colchester zoo one of the red Panda Cub's finally turned to face me for a split second.

After a little nap Luka was happy enough to continue his inquisitive stare directly at me sat comfortable on his rock.

So having decided to get to grips with my macro lens the old school oil and water attempt was made....needless to say I need some more practise to master this!

Lottie the baby white rhino at Colchester Zoo. Casually running around and terrorising the other rhinos it was quite amusing to watch.

Lena the leopard cub staring precariously as if in deep contemplation

Some of my first attempts at macro photography

Whilst on our long weekend we were very fortunate to be upgraded to a suite in our hotel. The view from the suite looked like this and was stunning.

A nice early morning shot of St Paul's from the corridor in One New Change.

A nice moment shared with 4 month old Pasha. Having already had a good opportunity to photograph his brother Mischa, Pasha was wondering what it was all about and lay in the shade staring straight at me for a number of minutes.

Shortly after brother Luka ventured out in front of the crowd sister Lena made her way out for a bit of playtime.

The 90m light tunnel connecting Kings Cross to St Pancras Square. Interesting to see first thing in the morning without hoards of tourists swamping the area.

A panorama from a stunning sunrise I enjoyed on a mid November Sunday morning in Banff.

This pano is 6 vertical images stitched together. Each of those was a blend of three exposures, so 18 images in all went in to creating this pano. Also a bit of witchcraft because the clouds were moving quite fast.

Whilst walking around in Gdansk, we opted to take a subway under the main road and found this musician horsing around :)

A throwback capture from Banham Zoo of a bald eagle that was more than happy to have his photo taken, and then decided to stare me out...

A very random building not too far away from Covent Garden whilst walking from the Holborn underground station. Interesting design and made me look up!

Wonderful view of Mt. Hayden and the painted desert from Point Imperial

North Rim of the Grand Cayon National Park

Arizona, USA

The road between the camps in Birkenau, a harrowing and lasting image that cannot easily be forgotten.

An elegant side profile shot of the bald eagle at Banham zoo.

The Dlugi Targ Square at night on a cold evening in November

Luka casually on his rock, overlooking the visitors.

Another great day shooting with the Amur tiger cubs. Pasha as always feeling very photogenic and willing.

The Amber Sky Ferris Wheel in Gdansk on a cold November evening through the viewpoint of my other half.

Bit of condensation on the window....how does it look in macro....need to try harder next time!

Amur cub Luka managed to find some higher ground to hide from sister Lena with his piece of firehose...how long will that last!

Luka and Lena appeared after waiting in the chilly wind for around 40 minutes. Once in sight they quite casually plonked themselves on a log and sat in the sun watching on.

A look down Mariacka street through an Amber jewellery showcase.

A quick snap of the famous view from the Pont Sant Angelo bridge. Not going to lie, had to fight to get this photo through hoards of photographers with tripods that had been camping for the "perfect moment"!

The Shoes on the Danube monument is a harrowing reminder of the atrocities that once occurred on the banks of the Danube. Having visited in 2017 originally it was one of the sites that made the most impact in Budapest and one I knew I would return to. The second visit hit home just as much as the first and is one I will not forget.

Some of my first attempts at macro photography

The Red Panda was being particularly illusive when I was trying to photograph it....then when I could it stuck its damn tongue out! The cheek of it!

So having spent a morning out with the camera Taiga and her cubs, Mischa, Pasha and Tatana were all feeling very photogenic!
