I may have accidentally been observed by my very sensible neighbour whilst getting this shot. She was doing something productive like cleaning her window; me less so. But, if you want to wear rabbit ears and frolic in the garden this weekend, don’t let anyone tell you “No!” Happy Easter! #portrait

Manchester’s Albert Hall; an old Wesleyan Chapel. First visit last night to see the glorious Sharon Van Etten. This has to be my new favourite venue…magical!

That was a great score! I’m not surprised it made your day…and I’m betting they’ve been on your feet already!

It’s freezing outside today so I thought I’d get a bit creative and show off my cool striped sleeve jumper (red and black in the flesh) thrifted for less than a fiver. Most of my wardrobe is second hand. Embrace the circular economy! Anyone else found any bargains recently? #selfportrait #bnw

Moody black and white self portrait of a woman with long blonde hair and striped sleeves.

Frosted thorns. I didn’t linger for long in the wood today. It hasn’t thawed at all. The big British freeze continues…

I know I said this account would be devoted to black and white, but I’m breaking my own rule to share my first Polaroid - a self timed self portrait. Judging by the mixed results from my first film, I’m thinking I may have more success with the newly loaded black and white. #photography #polaroid

Colour analogue Polaroid photo of a woman in leopard print, retro sunglasses.

I love nature and I love weddings and when the two come together like this handfasting ceremony from last spring, it’s magical!

Finally ventured outside to capture the fog that’s been with us solidly since Christmas Eve. Some sad to see some fallen giants courtesy of the recent storms.

Our glass making heritage is sometimes taken for granted by locals. Growing up, we all knew someone who had worked there. The Red House Cone has just always been up there on the skyline, but when I study it and frame it through the lens, it’s even more impressive. #blackcountry #photography

Dramatic black and white photo of the Red House Glass Cone.

This monument has become part of local folklore - a mystery that looks likely to remain so. Who put Bella in the Wych Elm?

It may be Bluesky but I’m thinking of indulging myself and keeping my feed on here exclusively black and white. Here’s another from my region. This one kind of sums up our network of canals and industrial heritage. #nikon #blackcountry #reflection #industry #canal #factory #heritage #photography

My feeble Winter Solstice celebration. I’m coughing for England at the moment (common cold) so don’t mind that today’s sunlight is in short supply. An afternoon on the sofa beckons. Any film recommendations? #film #photography #wintersolstice

A recent photo taken close to home by the imposing Red House glass cone. This is an area known as the Black Country. Feels appropriate to share on a day with the shortest amount of daylight.

I’m going to persevere with this app, even though it feels like I’m shouting into a void! Why do we put ourselves through this? I’m trying to cut down on screen time but like a challenge. 😆Understanding how the hell this works is one such challenge.

It’s really exciting to find a local band that carefully craft and hone their lyrics, feel totally authentic and create music you genuinely like and would happily listen to on repeat... Headshrinkers. Remember that name.
