Early autumn mornings in Richmond Park have something magical about them. Every year I try to make it there and capture the beauty of the park. On this occasion I was lucky and happy to capture a stag calling in the mist.

A handful of tufted ducks had made my local pond their home for the summer. In the early afternoon they would often take a bath, throwing up huge amounts of spray. By selecting a low angle and shooting into the sun with a slow shutter speed, I was able to blur the illuminated water droplets. It looked a little like the birds were bathing in a bottle of sparkling champagne.

From a fantastic week staying on the Scottish island of Eigg. On this evening we were gifted gold as the sun sank towards the horizon, casting some lovely golden light on to this rock bay on Laig beach, with the Isle of Rum in the distance. I used a long exposure of 10 seconds to create motion blur in the water while retain some detail.

Two young tigers fighting; they do this when they approach maturity. The moment only lasted for one second. but it wasn’t a lucky grab shot; I am very experienced with tigers and could read the situation that was about to unfold.

Taken from high up on a steep slope among the Caledonian pine trees on a majestic autumn evening. I had done a recce and been planning this scene for sunset. While composing the image, the colours popped at just the right moment.

A view from above the low mist hovering over Old Melrose Estate and the Bemersyde Loop of the River Tweed, as dappled light from the morning sun lights up the autumnal colours on the trees below. The Eildon Hills are a focal point in the distance.

On the first day of meteorological spring, the sun filtered through the low-lying mist, casting a striking shadow behind this small cluster of trees atop an ancient Bronze Age barrow.

From this tranquil scene on the Cornish coast, an ancient structure – known as a Dolmen – stands alone. As evening twilight fades, satellites can be seen, appearing as ‘trains’ that streak throughout the night. The reality that the number of satellites is overtaking visible stars is felt.
