So, Christmas is now out of the way and it daunted on me how long it’s been since I last updated you with my travels. Since the last post so much has happened including me launching my first ever ebook. Apart from that, I’ve driven across Spain back to Barcelona via some incredible scenery (more on that in a minute), I’ve flown to the UK for a kind of pre-Christmas family get together, flown back to Barcelona for Christmas and I now […]
Let’s be honest we all want to create photographs that stand out. One way of doing this is by panning. It’s a technique that gives your photography that artistic edge that perhaps you are lacking.

Recently I’ve been spending time in some interesting places, one of with is this old gold mine on the edge of a sleepy town named Rodalquilar in province of Almeria, Spain.

I’m now one month into #vanlife, I’m not certain I officially qualify for #vanlife as my ‘van’ is over 7 metres long. These past few weeks have flown by, I can’t believe how fast the days are passing. With winter approaching the days are definitely getting shorter, but it’s not that.
