Should we be worried that the aurora is being seen as far as the United Kingdom.

So yet again this year we have all been looking sky wards as the aurora borealis make its way over the horizon.

I for one was out there with the camera as soon as I got the notification of activity… (thanks to Aurora Watch UK app)

We are very lucky to be seeing something that originally wasn’t viewable in the United Kingdom. And was something we would have to travel miles to catch a glimpse of. And even then it wasn’t a predictable experience..

Yet sightings of the Aurora are starting to become a natural occurrence here! And many of those being seen by the naked eye and not just by long exposure cameras.

The question I’ve seen people asking is, is this a bad thing?

What does this really mean? Are we getting these sightings more frequently because of the ozone layer! Or changes in geomagnetic conditions , are these phenomena mixed in with climate change and the way the world has been going crazy with high winds like those in America this week with winds that have hit 150 plus miles per hour!

What do you think? so much more to learn! About these things! We all take for granted!

Here are a few images from the first major sighting of the Aurora in the uk at the start of 2024. BEAUTIFUL & CAPTIVATING!

Though the world thinks these are beautiful! Who else thinks there is more to this !

I’m not clued up enough to pass a judgment on what’s going on ! I’m just a photographer ! And that’s all!

Let’s all hope that there isn’t more to this !

Portrait photographer turned Landscape photographer

The photography community got hit pretty hard when the uk was his with the coronavirus.

When people couldn’t come together, it made being a photographer pretty void. We couldn’t do wedding, birthday parties, family or single person portraits and couldn’t keep doing our main income of corporate headshots.

So a number of amazing photographers had to diversify into other forms of photography. To keep their business afloat.

Me being one!

It’s not a hard transition if I’m completely honest! As long as you know your gear and understand the basics of composition then a lot of it falls into place pretty fast.

I think I was very lucky to have a good array of different lenses, That would suit both portrait and landscape photography. As I own zoom and prime lenses with every focal length from 10mm to 900mm so i feel I was in a good place to take the plunge with landscape photography.

So I headed out on what was to be a fun journey of landscape exploration and documentation.

Along the way it’s taken some side steps not only have I found amazing places to photograph but also beautiful seascapes, shipwrecks even cityscapes.

Karma shipwreck
Local Churches
The City of London
Autumn vista Delph Ditch Maldon

In the last two years I’ve seen and captured some amazing images. From sunsets to blue moons, old barges and rundown buildings that are part of our history but will never be re built. But tell stories of years gone by.

I’ve seen my images in local news papers, in magazines, printed on show stands at photography shows for companies like fujifilm. Even been part of a gallery exhibition.

All these things I couldn’t have dreamt of being a part of without becoming a landscape photographer.

Over the next few months I will adding new images and sharing more of what I’m doing on here so I hope to get your support and feedback

So Two years on and I now have a passion for landscape and where it can take me. And now I’m branching out. So that many more people can be part of my journey.
