Day 206 – Sunset high-rise Today I wanted to get out and catch one of the lovely sunsets I keep missing, so poised at the door trying to see if the sun and clouds were going to dance together to give us a closing show performance I waited with camera, hugo and baby car […]

  Day 205 – Field of dreams Today I met the lovely couple Natalie and Jim and their gorgeous daughter Lola for a pre wedding shoot at the second oldest church in the country in Deerhurst near Tewkesbury. The weather was good and supplied me with some nice fluffy white clouds on a plate of […]

  Day 204 – Come rain or shine. Today my step father was over from Dubai and is quite possibly the king of BBQ’s, so it was only fair I rose to the challenge, I think it is clear to see I lost!  Six sausages, rain and a gazebo doesn’t match the Dubai Sun, endless […]

  Day 203 – The cats whiskers! This cat is a cute cat but don’t be fooled but its sweet looks! This picture does look like the cat has some attitude, almost to the point of asking me what am I doing in my own garden, but this cat is brave and has some serious […]

  Day 202 – Monkeying around. I think for today’s post I don’t really need to say too much, I think the picture and the title say it all! Nice body, might need a wax though!  

Day 201 – Village People Why em see hay! Actually this is probably the last last place you’ll see a group of guys dressed as a camp police man, indian, soldier, salior, cowboy, although you may see a few dodgy farmers! On a serious note I love this village this really is the the Heart […]

  Day 200 – Royal Baby So today the nation went mental at the announcement of the baby of Kate and William, the press went crazy, the TV stations stopped everything and showed nothing  baby chat, Buckingham Palace and theories, scenarios and chats with randoms. The film crews and photographers are all now waiting for […]

  Day 199 – Neighbourly love. Today the neighbours came over to see the latest addition to the street, the first baby in 22 years, so you can imagine they couldn’t wait to give our Hugo a loving hug, it’s ok we have nicknamed him huggy and hugsy already so it’s very apt! They were […]

  Day 198 – Tub of love Today I got to use my newly acquired prop for the gorgeous Lily, this bargain old metal tub makes great pictures, hopefully people will think the same as me so I can clean up!  

  Day 197 – Small hands… There is a saying that more hands make light work, well these light hands make more work! But I wouldn’t want it any other way! 

  Day 196 – Pedal power Today is a contrast from yesterday, i was strolling round a Cheltenham landmark in the lovely sunshine admiring hundreds of motorbike and snapping pictures. Today I am struggling up a hill in my quest to get fit again, i’m starting to think it would be easier to get fat […]

  Day 195 – Look twice for bikers. I had popped out to get some baby milk for the little one, and on my journey through the centre of Cheltenham I had to double take as I drove past one of the main gardens here, the Imperial Garden outside the very Regent Queens Hotel. There […]

  Day 194 – My name in lights! Sadly its not in the way I was hoping, stardom is all about being in the right place at the right time or working hard and perseverance. I feel I have missed my time a few times in my life time, but I keep on working away […]

  Day 193 – The lights are on… Strange I know, but I find there is something a little satisfying when you catch the street lights just turning on. It’s like you have caught them doing their warm up before the dark sets in ready for  them to do their illuminating night shift, they start […]

  Day 192 – Hot air balloon. Wow, what a day, it’s hot, no, it’s damn hot! I spent few hours in Bristol with the family to visit the Foodie Festival, but as the saying goes ‘If you can’t stand the heat then get out of the kitchen’ well that couldn’t be any truer today. […]

  Day 190 – Roses aren’t red. These little beauties are growing in my garden, and anyone that has a 7-year-old daughter or has a daughter will know that pink is an important colour, so not long after this shot was taken, the big pink rose in the middle didn’t stand a chance of remaining […]

  Day 189 – Showing your heart. Today the pottery my daughter, aged 7-years-old and son age 7-week-old had contributed on, has been excitedly collected. This is the best plate I could ever own, I will never eat off it but will show it off, it’s a special heart, one I will love to share. […]

  Day 188 – Singing from the same page. Wow, I was minutes away from failing this project, 1 photo everyday for 365 days. Now the rules are you can post them whenever but the photo must be taken on that day, I have been close a few times, and some of the pictures have […]

  Day 187 – Rotten window view. As I walked to the office this morning still in shock at what would normally be a grey summer is still peacocking blue skies and a delightful orange disc up above. The architecture in Cheltenham is beautiful but really shines through when the sun is out, the golden […]

  Day 186 – Daisy posing… Today is a glorious day and lunch times are restored to ‘I am getting out of the office, nothing is stopping this skin getting a light creosoting’. So as I lie on the grass facing my face towards the sun, I soak up the warmth to dissipate the pasty […]
