CARCASSONNE RAMPARTS
I liked the framing of these two images and beutiful blue skies create a great contrast.
KENTWELL
My adorable Nephew at Kentwell – an annual Tudor reenactment where participants live like Tudors for a week in the grounds of a large Tudor mansion in Suffolk. He loved his time there – a life changing moment in his young life
He was a travelling ‘player’ for a week. They even speak the Shakespearean style language of the time when ‘on duty’.
ESSEX DOGS
Only in Essex! This was shot in Maldon and my grand-daughter added the hearts!
Reminded me of a Martin Parr style image.
ANTI PERSONNEL
Don’t trip over onto these little beauties, best not climb over them at all.
I was drawn to this image by the unworldliness of the landscape created by the spikes, patterns and shadow on this bridge in Chelmsford.
RANDOM ORDER
I was fascinated by the rythm created by these leaves on a pond in Writtle. The distribution of colour and shape is seemingly random, yet the texture is uniform
We owe everything to nature’s ability to create order from chaos.
NIGHTMARE DOLL
Took this shot in situ – no extra lighting, just sunlight hitting the doll at just the right angle and lighting up the head! I didn’t even move its position to get this shot.
What features in your worst nightmares?
