Well, yesterday was a very satisfying day's shooting. Up early for a dog walk to the Downs, met with some very lovely low-lying cloud, back home, back out to the Downs, met with a mate of mine for a book swap, then out again. Very lovely!!

The botanical gardens in Funchal, Madeira is one of the most amazing places I've been to. At the top of a cable car ride, you're presented with everything from cascading watersfalls to flamingos, to oriental gardens to african statues. It's a wonder.

I wouldn't mind getting back there at some point.

Have you ever walked past a scene and just had to stop and study before taking a shot or two. Such is the case with this scene. It was in Puerto de Mogan, and was halfway up some steps we were climbing to a 'viewing point'. I know I normally shoot in mono, but I was just captured by the light and the colours. Love it, love it, love it.

The sand dunes of Maspelomas are just something else. The fact that the sand was shipped into place is astounding, but the dunes give an other-worldly feel to the location, which is great for shooting anyway.

The port at Gran Canaria is a beautiful thing to behold, particularly when the fog hangs low. It's has an atmosphere that I've not often found elsewhere. I love the fog rolling and obscuring the mountains and hills in the background.

Deep inside the Anaga Mountains, the clouds hang low and create such atmosphere that it's difficult to shoot it badly. Everything is so vast and high, and wide and deep that it's also hard to know where to point your camera for the best scene.

So, the first post is always a tricky beast to master. You don't want to go all-in with telling everyone everything, and you don't want to be deliberately vague.

I'll just leave these here, as this is more or less what I do.
