Pure form, freed of all preconceptions
You slough off the skin of self, all self-awareness, and are left with pure sensation. Nothing has a name; it is only itself. You look at a tree, and instead of seeing it as an idea, a network of associations built up over a lifetime, you see it for itself,

Walk2017 – images from October and November
As I near the end of my attempt to walk 1,500 miles in 2017 (yes, I should just about make it!) it’s time to post my penultimate gallery of images. With the exception of a boost in September, my photographic output has gradually slowed over the course of
Autumn’s glow
For a while I worried that this autumn would be like so many other recent ones: trees stripped of their leaves by high winds, and endless grey dulling the colours. But I’m glad to see that the autumn colours have finally reached their peak here in Lincolnshire. Here are

Walk2017 – images from May
This month I added a short trip to the Lake District to my everyday walking in Lincolnshire. Summer is finally here. As my daily walks become more and more part of my routine, I’ve found my drive to take pictures has declined. Maybe it’s because I know every

#Walk2017 – images from miles 200-308
