  • Clouds reflect over the wet sands of the Braint Estuary near Newborough on the island of Anglesey, with the hills of Snowdonia in the background. Multitudes of tiny shells, many empty, some full of life followed the flow of water towards the main channel which echoed the clouds overhead

  • At low tide in the Afon Braint Estuary, Anglesey North Wales at sunset. Millions of tiny shells and Ragworm casts are revealed on the vast expanse of sand and silt. Oystercatchers, Curlews and numerous other waders feed on this vast expanse of rich estuary. Shallow rivers and streams of warm water continue to flow down to the low tide mark even as the tide starts to rise once again.

  • Unbelievably rare opportunity to stand alone looking at this lighthouse. Normally there are line-ups of dozens of photographers all vying for position on well-worn perches to photograph this tick-list honeypot. I think this is perhaps only the third time in three decades that I’ve ever stopped on my walk to make a picture, as I just don’t enjoy the jostling with others, I want & need to be alone. I love Ynys Llanddwyn but for me at least, I don’t go to the island for the lighthouse but for the landscape and views over the bay and back to the mainland.<br />
<br />
Today with just the wind whispering in the marram grass, and the sound of waves on the distant shore, it was a perfect opportunity to stand and reflect without distraction upon the original reason for the existence of the lighthouses. I was able to consider the jagged rocky coastline, the character-rich profile of the Eryri mountains in the background and the huge, but very shallow stretch of treacherous sea that separates the land masses. It’s no wonder that a lighthouse was sited here before electronic navigation mitigated their purpose.

  • This shell was not placed, it was as I found it, sitting in a shallow sheet of water covering the mud in Malltraeth Estuary, Malltraeth, West Anglesey.

  • From above, and in the natural serenity of recent snow, Tŷ Uchaf farmhouse looks beautiful, normal and inhabited, no longer the empty shell for sheep droppings, birds of prey and an occasional dead lamb. At one point in time I can imagine this farm could have been a very striking place to live and work, with stunning views, but the isolation, loneliness and hardship of tending livestock in this difficult valley, and getting them to market, could also have been just seriously hard work!

  • Mossel Bay is a harbour town on the Garden Route in South Africa’s Western Cape Province. It’s known for the wide Santos Beach and the 19th-century Cape St. Blaize Lighthouse, which offers bay views. The Bartolomeu Dias Museum Complex includes the Maritime Museum, the Shell Museum and botanical gardens. The Post Office Tree, a milkwood tree in the complex, has been used as a mail collection point since the 1500s.
