If you want to catch great sunset photos you need to see the sunset. Missed this one but at least I caught the last of the light in this pretty sunset.
Kudu bulls drinking at a waterhole in Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe. from my photo archives.
Took a walk to the local lake yesterday. It certainly felt like summer, though I suspect we are still in spring. I always like this view down the lake in any season. Between jobs and still catching up on a health issue, the local St James Lake is a very pleasant place to be. This…
In April of 2022 we took a trip to Ballito on KwaZulu Natal’s Dolphin Coast. Our timing was terrible. We arrived for the aftermath of massive storms and floods, resulting in messy beaches, water supply problems and the like.

A panorama picture of Tenby harbour a little after the sunrise. The buildings are each painted a different colour, presenting an interesting picture in the morning…

The Milk Shed in Weston-on-the-Green in Oxfordshire. Brunch at an old favourite place after lockdown.
