So having climbed up Mt Vesuvius first thing the same morning it was so powerful to visit Herculaneum the lesser regarded town that was destroyed in the eruption of 79AD.

 

A much smaller site with very rich mosaics and multi-floored homes, it is a site of wealth and power. To capture an image of the excavation of Herculaneum and the modern town of Ercolano under the watchful eye of Mt Vesuvius the destroyer of towns sent shivers down my spine.

Some good old fashioned chocolate indulgence. Nothing better than a chocolate tasting of an evening, but also playing with a macro lense!

So I first seen the Anonymus statue when I visited back in 2017 and was somewhat mesmerised by it then as I was this time. The statue is of a man who was once a notary and chronicler for a Hungarian king. The man's identity however has been vastly debated over the years to the point he is only known as Anonymus.

The Hungarian Parliament building standing proud on the banks of the Danube shot from the Castle side of the river.

The Otters at Colchester Zoo casually just sunbathing.

The Digital Holga is one of the worst cameras I've ever used. One of the biggest issues is it's downright unpredictable slow shutter--just look at what it did to this image! ... Okay, I admit I kind of like it :)

We are approaching the traditional end of the harvest season of the old agricultural year and entering into the dark half of the year. At the time of this last harvest, also known as Samhain or Halloween, the hedgerows and trees are bursting with edible fruits, nuts and berries. I've collected just a small selection here for a seasonal still life. Hawthorn, Rosehips, Sweet Chestnuts, Crabapples, Wildings (apples sprouted from discarded apple-cores, often crossed with Crabapples), hazelnuts, acorns (edible if correctly processed), blackberries and Sloes. If you know what to do with them, there is still a veritable delight of wild foods to be found; many of which our ancestors would have relied on to carry them through the long, cold dark months of winter... #stilllife #still_life #autumn2013 #Samhain #halloween #wildharvest #wildfruits #crabapples #foraging #oxfordshire #uk #hurricanelamp #trug #markmakingdesign #most_deserving #photowall #all_shots_ #uk_potd #icatching #bd #ig_captures_nature #red_mm #redthursday

One of the "Stop" signs just in front of a guard tower and the electric fences at Auschwitz I. Often some of the prisoners last resort they would throw themselves at the electrified barbed wire in hope of ending their misery.

A very quick snap whilst walking by, a gibbon sat almost in contemplation and soaking up the winter sun.

A stretch out of a selection of the Chelmsford Graffiti wall on a visit after finishing work one afternoon.

Who says left over currency provides no purpose. Interesting and intricate details for macro
