Soaking up the last of the setting sun (after hopping from branch to branch and evading my camera for several long minutes).

Photo of the Aurora Borealis in Tromsø, Norway. The lights look like green curtains against a starry sky, lighting up salmon pink clouds.

Photo taken from a dog sled in Tromsø, Norway, with a snowy mountainous landscape in the background and dogs pulling a sled in the left foreground.

Photo of two sled dogs standing together in the snow on a bright sunny day.

Photo of the Aurora Borealis behind a snowy mountain and in front of a starry sky.

1st March is obviously St David's Day for us Welsh people, but for me it's also the anniversary of my 2019 Arctic Circle adventure. A magical debut for my first DSLR.

A moody landscape in the Lake District, with mist-covered mountains surrounding a lake.

A grey and white sheep looking down at the camera from a mountainside, against a grey cloudy sky.

A grey and white sheep standing on a mountainside, against a background of more mountain and low clouds.

Photo of a mountainous landscape in cloud weather, with the sun just peeking out beneath a thick blanket of grey cloud.

I've been feeling quite photographically uninspired lately, snapping away against flat grey skies.

But I did visit the #LakeDistrict this month where it's hard to /not/ capture gorgeous views, even in this relentless weather.

Photo of DJ the black cat, lounging on a bed in the sunshine with a paw stretched out. Photo is obviously from last year; neither Deej nor I have seen the sun in what feels like months.

This might only be the second #DailyDoseOfDJ this year, but it's an important one: celebrating 4 years since the day we brought him home. 🥰

Photo of a penguin swimming past the glass of a large pool at London Zoo, with his face mostly under the water line.

One of my favourites from last year - a cheeky chappie on his way to gobble some fish. 🐧

Photo of a pink sunrise above a farm, some fields, and a frozen pond with a dragonfly statue.

Photo of the sunrise on the spire of a town hall building, with other buildings in the foreground and trees in the background.

Photo of the sunrise hitting some garages lined alongside a pathway.

A pink-streaked sunrise behind the silhouettes of two horses touching noses in a field, next to a tree.

Snaps from the pre-work walk that made the early-ish start, and the 0°C, worth it.

Film photo of some chair lifts on a ski slope, with a blue sky and, course, mountains in the background, and some skiers on the left hand side of the image.

It's winter-but-not-Christmas-anymore, which of course means time to post snowy ski resort photos.

Expired film photo of a close-up holly branch with berries. The background is the rest of the holly bush, but blurred.

I might do some sort of 2025 Photo Roundup on here soon, but all the while I'm trying to remember Bluesky exists, here's a fairly festive photo from a recent roll of expired film.

(All we had to do was tuck the lights back up into the tree for him to resume ignoring them forever.)

This is during snow we had in November 2024. I only just got around to developing this roll, it spans nearly 10 months from Nov24 to Sep25!

Went away for the weekend, so yesterday morning I woke up to a cat on my stomach, making sure I wasn't about to go anywhere else.

DJ the black cat, stretching up to me with his claws out at the camera, while I sit at a computer desk. Looks a lot more menacing than it actually is - he's gearing up to jump on my lap, cuddle, and purr as loudly as an engine for the next half hour.

Your #DailyDoseOfDJ

Forgot about Bluesky for a while again. Have returned to show you his extremely persuasive demands for cuddles.
