Welcome to My Creative Space.

After a full day of decorating, there’s one thing that makes it all worthwhile: a proper cup of tea and a slice of cake. It’s that small moment of reward, the brief pause where you sit back and admire the progress made before diving back in. This photo came about as I was halfway through…

After yesterday’s minor wobble, today’s effort feels like a reaffirmation of why I pick up the camera every day. There’s always that little voice whispering, ‘Is this one good enough? Does it hold up?’ But then I remind myself – I’m not doing this for the likes, for validation, or for some grand exhibition. I’m…

Sometimes, creativity is found in the most unexpected places. Tonight, it was on the chopping board. I wasn’t out chasing dramatic landscapes or waiting for the perfect light. I was just helping prepare dinner when I saw something worth capturing—an onion, freshly cut, stark against the dark background, layers unfolding like the rings of a…

There’s something satisfying about turning the ordinary into something striking. Today’s subject? Garlic. Yes, garlic. A few bulbs had been sitting on the counter long enough to sprout, and with my new light arriving, I figured—why not make something of it? The results surprised me. The sprouts gave the composition an organic, almost alien-like feel,…

The Scene: This was one of those days where the light wasn’t on my side, but I wasn’t about to let that stop me. With a classic Norfolk country church sitting at the end of a winding road, I had two choices: my 20mm wide-angle or the 85mm prime. The 85mm won out, and I’m…

Some days, the best way to clear your head isn’t another cup of coffee or another attempt at debugging—it’s stepping away entirely. Today was one of those days where FAISS (or my brain) refused to cooperate. Instead of going in circles, I grabbed my camera, walked outside, and this scene caught my eye. The rain-dappled…

Somewhere between chasing stars and capturing the past, I found myself standing in the cold, setting up a long exposure at the ruined church. This was one of those nights where everything aligned—well, mostly. I had planned for star trails, for light painting, for atmospheric textures in the old stone. What I didn’t plan for…

Sometimes, things don’t go as planned. I had every intention of heading out for a night shot, capturing some crisp stars against an old church, but nature had other ideas. Instead, I found myself indoors, looking for a different kind of shot. Photography is just as much about adapting as it is about planning. So,…

Let’s be honest—some tasks are so routine they barely engage the brain anymore. For me, Health & Safety training is one of those. It’s necessary, sure, but after doing it every couple of years for two decades, my mind naturally starts looking for an escape route. Today, that escape came in the form of my…
