A quick spin whilst walking through Soho revealed an elongated shadow of a bicycle parked on the footpath.

The fountain of 4 Rivers is typically the centre piece of Piazza Navona. The cultural and local hub of Rome, with locals and tourists meeting alike there is always something going on here.

Described in WritingTravellers: Photo opportunity

A throwback from a cruise on the Hudson overlooking the One World Trade Centre

Lena still has a lot to learn at just over 4 months old....the bare branches were fooling no one.

Luka sat on a log looking inquisitive almost as if he is raising his paw to ask a question

A throwback from when I was out and about with my Canon 1000D in Harwich Essex on an earlyMay bank holiday. The Maritime museum stands overlooking the English channel towards Felixtowe.

Literally loosing my mind due to lockdown looking for things to photograph...

The Dancing House on the banks of the Danube.

Another attempt at oil on water photography

One of the Red Panda Cubs that FINALLY come out of their little hutch!

A special moment in the Piazza del Popolo where in a street performer with bubbles was entertaining children all over the place/

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

Whilst in Piazza Navona there is always something going on. Multiple street performers and things happening it is easy to lose yourself in the immersive culture. This one street perfomer, always grabbing the attention of passers by with his timid yet commanding approach.

Whilst taking the opportunity to grab some quiet time with Pasha, Mischa and Tatana early in the morning, after around 15 minutes this happened....clearly looking photogenic was tiring work!

I made my way up to Mesa Arch the morning after a rainy night where I found this cool reflecting pond in front of the arch.

The model is a hiker named Natalie who had camped in the park the night before. I thought her red jacket was the perfect highlight for the shot.

Block 25 on the Women's camp at Auschwitz II - Birkenau often referred to as "The Block of Death" A stone walled construction with the wooden slatted bunks. Often sleeping 7 to a bunk this was used as a temporary housing facility for women selected to go to the gas chambers whilst awaiting transport. Walking the corridors has a very sombre feeling to it, and seeing the conditions people "lived" their final days and hours in was heart wrenching.

Playing with my Sigma macro 105mm and some household items.

Open cooking on a Pierogi stand at the Christmas market in onee of the old squares in Gdansk.

An interesting sculpture in the south-western corner of the Main Market Square. Be sure to get there early if you want to capture a photo like this as any other time you will have peoples faces appearing in the eye holes!

Westminster Abbey on a very cloudy and chilly morning in November

A casual squirrel in St James Park whilst walking along The Mall just wandering around in the sun and Autumn leaves.

A couple of non-traditional black phone boxes in the Covent garden area of London at the precise moment a passerby looks in but out of one of them.

Walking around Kazimierz in Krakow there is some defiant street art around each corner. A symbol of the character of the locals and the willingness to stand for what they believe in.
