“Water writes Ardnamurchan’s margins.”
From tidal pools to lochs that hold sky like a mirror—discover the second element.

Water: Ardnamurchan’s Restless Grammar

It begins as a whisper at the tide’s edge, a syllable of foam curling against basalt. Then the sentence lengthens—waves drafting their own syntax across the bay, commas of kelp, ellipses of spray.

Lochs hold sky like a secret, their surfaces inked with wind, rewriting themselves with every breath.

Burns thread the moor in cursive, silver lines that speak of rain and memory.

And beyond, the Atlantic—an open book without margins, its pages turned by weather, its language fluent in change.

Here, water is not passive; it is author, editor, and voice. It writes Ardnamurchan’s story in liquid script, and I read it with my eyes, my ears, my skin.

Since 2021 I'd self published a wee photo book every year (only one has any boats in it, sorry) until this year, where due to being busy with the house, I've not published anything, but looking forward to getting back in the saddle next year though.

Have you had a look at the excellent open source DarkTable, it’s very good and zero cost.

Most of my photography projects are about telling the stories of the people in the photos. Nighthawks is different as it is about encouraging people to create their own stories using the images as a prompt.

Was somewhat late social posting my 8pm launched ‘Spiorad aird nam Murchan’ blog post tonight…but I’m sure you’ll forgive me as I was somewhat engaged as the official national photographer for the Andorra 🇦🇩 under 21 side as they trained at Derby ahead of playing England tomorrow.
Back on match duty!

Storm's here. Those boats look so tiny against that sky.
#photography #LakeHuron #storm #Meaford #EastCoastKin

Big storm brewing over Meaford harbour, tiny specks of white on the water are fishing boats that really should be heading back to the shelter of the marina.

“If Bourblaige is a village in suspension, Camas nan Geall below it is a gallery of millennia. To stand at Bourblaige and look across to Camas nan Geall is to feel the thickening layers: Neolithic, Christian, clan, and clearance.”

Brighton promenade

Enjoyed my first visit to Brighton. I hadn't quite expected the scale of it. Will have to return.

#holgaweek #believeinfilm

A grainy, high-contrast, black and white photo taken from inside a dilapidated seaside shelter. The perspective looks out through grimy window panes and vertical metal supports to the promenade, which has a railing and several empty benches. Beyond the benches, the sea stretches toward the horizon under a bright, cloudy sky. In the foreground, the wooden slats of a bench inside the shelter are visible, along with a faded mural or etching on the wall to the lower left, possibly of a sailboat. The image has a vignette effect and a vintage, melancholy feel.
