December – An ending of sorts…
The year is finally at an end. Three hundred and sixty five photographs, one a day for twelve months. It has felt like a very long year. Then again, this was kinda the point. It’s all too easy to tune time out, ignoring the mundane for years before realising you’ve reached middle age and wondering…

November…
You would think that after ten months of doing this, the eleventh month would be a breeze. It wasn’t. As winter approaches and the days get shorter, suddenly it is dark by the time I finish work, so I either have to shoot in the dark or race out for half hour during my break.…

October…
Another month has gone, but we’re closing in on the end of 2021. Time seems to be flying by these days, but taking a photo each day does at least provide a bookmark for each day that passes. October is usually the time when the temperature drops, the rain starts to get a bit excitable…

September…
Would you believe it, a whole nine months have passed already. This month we crossed the 100-days-to-go point and oh boy, I really need to find some other things to photograph. Much of the warm and settled weather is now behind us and we now stare down the barrel of another 6 months of darkness…

August…
Where is the time going, eh? It’s September and we’re heading back into the darkness and well, slightly colder rain. It also means that we’re closing in on 100 days to go until the end of this current photo-a-day project. Keepers… One big reason for forcing yourself to shoot every day is that whilst there…

July…
Well, these monthly updates seem to be getting later and later, but I am still plugging away at this photo-a-day project. However, there was a little fly in the ointment this month. Towards the end of July, my camera took an unfortunate dunk in the river and hasn’t quite been the same since. Same old,…

Of June…
The month started a theme that would play out over the course of the month. I’ve spent a lot of time this month feeling rather nostalgic for my younger years –the 1990s in particular. The 90s were where my lifelong love affair with metal really started to build, the band Fear Factory in particular. My…

April…
April was an interesting month, for both good and not-so-good reasons. I had my first COVID-19 shot and even went to the dentist as well, so that’s good. There’s a reassuring hint of the normal life creeping back in. With that said, there’s a lot about the past 12 months that I’d like to keep,…

February 2021 – The Difficult Second Album…
As we headed into February, I could sense that there would be headwinds this month. Another month of not really going anywhere new, treading old ground both physically and metaphorically. January gets a lot of flack for where it sits in the calendar. It’s yet another dark month straight after the trials of Christmas are…

The Best of January 2021
As months go, January has never been a favourite. We may see the year in with grand plans for what we are going to achieve in the coming year, but that seems to get quietly forgotten once a few more weeks of darkness and murk seep into our pores. However, as the first month on…
