I enjoy messing about with photography, and so far, all of my abstract work has been done within post-processing. ICM allows me to do it as I'm taking the photograph.

This is deeply meaningful to me. Surviving and blossoming despite all attempts to stop me blossoming on my own terms.

Every time I drove past this tree during the day, I found myself wondering how I could capture it in a photograph. Last June, I finally got the opportunity.

That haunting mental image of a woman you glanced at while walking past a Paris cafe...

This is Antwerp's main station. It is known throughout Europe for being one of the busiest train stations, but also for its fantastic architecture.

Surely there are many more disabled or handicapped photographers? I am a wheelchair user. My photos are taken from my chair.

I love to mess about in post, trying out things to see what happens. I sometimes get results I love. Sometimes.

The Barn Owl is possibly my favorite owl.

I have 16 TB worth of photographs that need to be cleared out.

I have been sorting through my external SSDs, getting rid of all the photographs I should have got rid of on the day I uploaded them.

I have been working through all my SSD exts, which are filled with thousands of photographs, most of which are dross and need to be deleted.

This is not a good shot in the way we ould normally think of but I at least the got the eye dead sharp of this 5-7 day old Wood Pigeon which we have done our best to protect both parents.

I spotted this blackbird tucked among the leaves. Unlike most birds, it didn’t flinch when I raised my camera it simply stayed put, almost as if it was posing for the shot.

When/Where: This photo was captured during the afternoon/twilight show on Friday August 7, 2026 at the Abbotsford International Airshow. I was positioned in the Photo Pit.

A couple months ago I picked up a RF 100mm f/2.8 Macro L and I am putting it through it's paces to see what I can come up with.

When/Where: This was captured at the Abbotsford International Airshow on the Saturday from the Photo Pit. The MBB Bo 105 was doing a loop as part of its airshow routine.

Sometimes a bit of luck is all you need.

When/Where: On August 7, 2026 at the Abbotsford International Airshow during the Friday afternoon/evening Twilight Show.

I was recently back in the woods trying to take some wildlife photos. Sadly, I barely came across any birds that day and whenever I did, they were gone before I could even focus on them.

Caught this house sparrow in a bush. In his beak, you can see what looks like his meal for the evening.

The current AI contest made me revisit a photo I took in 2008 that I've been trying to save from a chain link fence.

Photo taken in Morro Bay, CA.

It was July 6, 2026, around 6:30 p.m. The sun was settling low over Port Orchard, and the wildlife seemed to settle with it.

It was mid September late in the afternoon, a group of sailboats were out on the water enjoying the weather, there was a soft breeze blowing, pushing on the sails.

Two Blue Heron fishing.

Just a few shots - not of the art but the building interior!

A stone shepherd's cabin with an orange roof beside a high-altitude lake in the province of Leon during an unexpected late spring snowfall.

I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

I held a lighting workshop recently. Sterling was the model. I rarely shoot silhouettes but I wanted to incorporate that arch into a shot. Backlighting became an obvious choice.
