Equine Visitors
When we set up for the eclipse we had some visitors from the semi-wild horses on the moors.
They tried eating our chippy, the blanket and sneezed on the Action 6 but they are tame to pet so was worth it 😊

Five Minute Journeys - Insects
Literally everywhere, insects are a great subject (when they sit still 😆)
From local woods to your backyard the colours and variety they offer are wonderful.
Most phones offer a macro mode if you don't have a lens suitable for your camera to capture, but macro lens are sensibly priced if you get into macro shooting.

Santa Maria Return
The difference a week makes ☔
Wet morning, but popped down to the last day the Santa Maria is here, using the DJI Action 6 as waterproof also gives a different feel.

Five Minute Journeys - Wind Swept
Going to do a series of shots over next few days that I've taken locally, all about 5 mins car trip from home.
I feel photography doesn't need to be a huge trip to get an interesting shot, there is always something local that can make great shots when you only have a short amount of free time.

Cloudy Eclipse
Well, we just had clouds so didn't really get to see the eclipse but the cloud shots worked nicely 😆
Five Minute Journeys – Pondside
Second of the Five Minute Journeys, this is a local fishing pond in the next village down the road from me.
Lovely location that’s really popular with families and dog walkers, with a proper path around.
On a sunny day like Sunday it was a lovely spot to stop for a wander on our Wedding Anniversary (29th 😊)

Five Minute Journeys - Home
The simplest place to shoot without going far is of course Home!
The amount of things in a house you can get photography from is never ending; pets, props, toys, costumes, you can have fun with a shoot without going anywhere.
There is interesting photography everywhere, I hope the few this reaches found this weeks Five Minute Journeys fun.
You don't need a day of planning if you are busy, anything close that lets you get behind the lens and relax is perfect photography 😊

Five Minutes Journeys - Urban.
For those not in the country, make use of your local streets.
Different angles, looking up or from low level will give you something interesting, art installations or decorative signs, all can be fascinating to shoot.

Five Minute Journeys - Church
Towns and villages still have local churches and these make wonderful subjects for photography.
From the buildings themselves to the old gravestones they have fascinating structures to shoot.

Clouds Time Lapse
Was meant to be the eclipse but that didn't really do anything so here's a nice cloud time lapse, with horses for the fun of it 😁
