‘Thinking About You’
An evening out starting with a glass of wine in the Waterfront Hotel and then on to see Bryan Adams in a magical concert.
every morning, the heavy doors creak open, and the lonja awakens. the first step, the first touch of sunlight, the unnoticed ritual of transition. before visitors arrive, before history repeats itself, a quiet moment between night and day.
A sad story - I've watched these resident marina swans nest and lay eggs for the last few years but the eggs never hatch. I'm on a Flickr group called 'Swans' and they have commented on past posts to say they could be elderly swans and the eggs are not fertile. Sadly the swans sit on the eggs for months and months till someone from the marina comes along, when the swans aren’t watching, and clears the nest away.
captured just outside the pull and bear shop near the mercat d’olivar in palma de mallorca, this photograph frames a serene moment of a young woman absorbed in her phone. the play of light and shadow accentuates her calm demeanor, creating a striking contrast that highlights both her elegance and the urban environment. the monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing the quiet introspection amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. this candid shot encapsulates a fleeting moment of stillness, beautifully juxtaposed against the backdrop of everyday life.
I love it when the Brighton Marathon or half marathon happens on a day with perfect weather like today. I take my Canon R and my iPhone, sit on the grass verge and swap between them depending what I'm shooting. The best shots with the Canon are the triple exposures. The iPhone is best for individual runners and small groups, panoramas, videos and cinematic. They're not to everybody's taste but I feel they capture the heart of the marathon.
I was on the bus into town when I first saw Stacey. I couldn’t really miss her as she stood out amidst the blacks and greys in the street. I thought how lovely it would be to photograph her but decided against getting off the bus. Then when I was walking home through Kemp Town there she was sitting on a bench outside the church. I went over to talk with her and found her personality as vibrant as her style.

the cyclist breaks free from gravity for a heartbeat, casting a shadow that seems more grounded than he is. between concrete arcs and vertical rhythm, there's a flash of levity â motion etched into light, surrounded by stillness that never blinks.

I've loved kingfishers since I was in my primary school but never ever managed to see one sitting still long enough so I could photograph it. Until today when I was happily taking a shot of one sitting on a fence and his friend came and joined him.
I googled how to tell the difference between a male and female kingfisher and it is by the beak colour which can be clearly seen in the photo. The males beak is all black, the female has a pinky orange tinge to the lower part of the beak. It said you can remember it by thinking that the lady wears lipstick!
I actually took my Canon camera with me and my 100-600 lens but the picture is still a bit soft but it is two kingfishers ;-))
I don't think it will be very long before this view with the graffiti backdrop is gone forever. I'm told the new sea wall still has gaps as there's a huge amount of cabling and piping to be rerouted to allow the site to be prepared for development. So the wall will be left unfinished while a link road is put in with utilities to the marina. Then when that work is finished the old connections will be removed and the sea wall will be finished.
The most common type of mold found on strawberries is caused by the fungus Botrytis cinerea. This fungus infects the strawberry, causing it to develop grey and fluffy mold on the surface. Yuk! In this punnet on just the one strawberry.

Whether his mother would let him, or no.

I thought of this poem as I watched all the frogs in the pond. It must go back many, many years but has never made sense.

And through the COVID-19 pandemic a UK testing centre for the virus.
The field over looking the Amex stadium is usually a mass of large, vibrant, red poppies each year. This year it’s a field of wild flowers - small poppies, rape seed, dandelions, thistles and something blue? Nowhere near as lovely for a landscape but then I doubt the farmer plants the field for the photographic opportunities it offers.
More fairytales from the lowcountry. My friend, Greg, graciously posed for me here.

I did have to check that it was actually a car run as there were quite a few penny farthing bicycles coming through the finishing line. I checked and the title is correct. I checked the front of the bikes and they did all have entry numbers. Amazing to think they'd travelled 60 miles plus from London's Hyde Park to Brighton's Madeira Drive.

And then the skies opened up the forecast 'sunshine and showers' turned into torrential rain! I could have done with a photographer to capture my drowned rat look.
The ladies in the photo are the Jumping Jeanies out for their morning exercise. Cut short by the rain.
captured in the quiet coastal district of portixol, this striking portrait draws you into an intimate moment of contemplation. the close-up of the man’s face, with his intense gaze and subtle expression, reveals a moment of deep reflection as he takes a break from his meal. the natural light falling on his skin accentuates the texture and detail, adding depth to his quiet demeanor. set against the blurred backdrop of portixol’s calm atmosphere, this image portrays both the beauty of solitude and the power of stillness in an otherwise bustling world.
"This here was not what I wanted to do! I much rather would have just foraged on a grassy field or swam in our pond but our parents decided to take us on an adventure. They were leading us very confidently and what is there for us kids to do other than tiptoe after them. No bird crossing signs, just people signs like "DEAD END" that didn't help me feel any better of this unwise morning walk."

In a hurry to use the Government funding and create cycle lanes across Brighton those charged with widening Dukes Mound decided all the plants on the green wall needed to come down. According to Brighton and Hove's Green Council they knew nothing of this and are setting up an enquiry!
No children’s party without some sweets and some toys. And since it’s Easter, sweet Eggs and for clean children, something from Paw Patrol MARSHALL Soap & Scrub. So Happy Macro Monday.
I have to admit, neither knew Pow Patrol nor the Soap & Scrub sets. But it reminds me on the Kinder EGG oder Überschungsei, good marketing strategy directed at small children to hide some cheap plastic toy within food or this time soap.
I'm not a great one for editing but using photoshop to edit this image was the best way to show the difference between the current wall between Black Rock beach and the new sea defences being put in. The tall metal structures in the background are the pilings which set the deep foundations for the new constructions.
The bubble man was out on the seafront today providing non stop fun and laughter for kids and parents alike. Lovely to see the Great Dane join in the fun.
My mum is in a nursing home now so I made a start on clearing her place. I was feeling glum after sorting so many of her memories that she doesn't remember any more. As I left I looked up and there was this beautiful, vibrant rainbow which lifted my spirits but my thoughts went to the people in Gaza who are seeing nothing but smoke.
Wonderful to walk in the rain today but a challenge to get around the puddles. Never thought of dusting off my wellies in a drought.
NB: How to navigate with puddles!!
Tristran Gooley, the Natural Navigator said:
“The sun is due south in the middle of the day. That means it's casting shadows to the north side of any obstacles. What this means is on any track that runs from east to west you'll see more puddles on the south side."
"The sun in the middle of the day is drying everything except the bits it can't reach so they stay wet and we see more puddles on the south side of tracks."

Walking home from Brighton earlier this year I met Zooti and Zero sitting celebrating their wedding anniversary after 29 years. Covid rules on dining out had just been relaxed but only allowed dining alfresco. Disappointing for the couple as they'd dressed for their occasion. We talked about where they lived and they told me they were originally from Redcar but had moved to Kemp Town and decided to officially change their names to something a bit more Zingy!
