Coming into Autumn and then Winter, the later sunrises are a photographer’s dream – regardless of the conditions there is always something to delight and amaze. Actually we are very fortunate that we are able to interact with the seasonal cycles all year around, especially those of us who work indoors. Some of the...

A gorgeous sunny day today to swum. Water is calm and getting clearer. Not only was the turtle spotted – by others – but there was also a massive dusky at the point – spotted by others – and also a fever of cow nosed rays. I saw them. Thanks to Fiona and Gemma. Unbelievably...
