Heavy, flat, sullen skies; diffused, muted light....what's not to like.

Otters are creatures of the edges, moving for the most part unnoticed between salt and freshwater. A very welcome encounter, with this young cub from a recent tip to #Uist in the #OuterHebrides.

Close encounters with the local hares in the #Lavenham Fields.

Locked eyes with a legend in the Lavenham Fields this morning 👀🐇
That intense stare, those radar ears, that wild beauty… I was completely frozen. One of those rare moments you dream of as a wildlife photographer.
Anyone else get weak in the knees when a hare actually holds eye contact?

Hunkering down along the Wash on the East Coast, in the company of Avocets.

Encounters on the Benbecula shoreline. The bond of mother & cub remains close for about a year. She raises the cubs alone, teaching them how to survive in freshwater & coastal environments.

One of the few sightings of a Short Eared Owl on North Uist. Unusual, but it's been a very wet winter on the isles, and likely this has hit the vole population, (their natural prey).

The first rays of the suns linger low over the lake in the mist, framing this Great Crested Grebe & her chick. Metering for the frame, underexposing 2 x stops. Thought it had a nice feel about it.

Just sitting, and waiting along the margins this morning during the twilight hour.

A moment in time. A great crested grebe takes to flight.

Courting grebes around 5am this morning down by the local lake. I love this time of the day, when the light is so soft & diffused. All is still and all you can hear is a theatre of sound from the local wildlife.

A wider perspective of this family affair. A female grebe shepherds her chicks during the twilight hour.

typically work from a low perspective, close to ground or water level. Lowering yourself to your subject’s eye line can often transform the way an image feels, creating a sense of intimacy & connection.

A very wet and blustery morning, just before sunrise, as courting Grebes dance along the margins.

Grebes develop an enduring bond during the breeding season. Having closely observed these creatures over the preceding months, the chicks grow quickly, carefully tended under the watchful eye of both parents.

Whispers of the sun reflect off still waters at day break. In this perfect stillness, a Grebe shepherds her chick along the margins.

Momentary encounters on the magical Isle of Skomer.

A fleeting moment captured along the lake, as the mist lingered during the twilight hour. Grebes are such incredible creatures and I thought this composition just lent itself to monochrome, (with a hint of a cyanotype tint).
