A simple little clip of two swans enjoying the cool autumn morning. It looks impressive, maybe an exotic location? The only skill required is waiting for the glorified ducks to paddle themselves into a place that allows me to frame the shot with just the right background and include the Continue Reading

Brother Goose
My heart knows what the wild goose knows… An old favourite song, I never really understood what Frankie was on about until now. It’s hard to describe to someone who avoids the outdoors how exhilarating and empowering it is to venture out and experience nature, simply being one with the Continue Reading
Winchester 73
Winchester 73, yes, that’s 1873! I’ve always had a love of westerns, the older the better although some of the more modern ones also deserve a watch, as long as they keep true to the genre. It’s also important they research the period and do justice to the props and Continue Reading
