Jaws? 2 Jul 2013 | 06:20 pm
Well, no. From our Galapagos trip, it's the 'wing' of a large ray which has come through the surface as the ray has come close. We spent about 30 minutes going round in circles in a small semi-rigid t...
Galapagos - giant tortoise 1 Jul 2013 | 08:06 pm
While not a direct relative of Lonesome George, who died a year or so ago, the remaining giant tortoises are impressive. George was the last of his line in his specific species - those remaining are d...

Gorgeous beast.
Vultures - Masai Mara 15 Jun 2013 | 08:04 pm
Not pretty birds, but masters of the air. If it were an airliner it would be 'Finals, three greens to land' at this point. But they're pretty ugly on the ground when they are on a kill; this one was...
Real film 14 Jun 2013 | 02:47 pm
Another 'back to basics' shot. Part of the engineering that moves a steam locomotive. Shot at Didcot with a Leica R4, I bought it in 1983, so it's 30 years old - wonder if digital units will have that...
