Petrol pump babies. The birds who made this nest last year don’t appear to have returned yet….unless they are teenagers.

I’m away from my computer for a few days, so testing my mobile skills…having forgotten my glasses! A walk we regularly take is along the beaches near Cape Trafalgar, Andalucia. The storms and torrential rain of recent weeks has washed … Continue reading

This little fellow is, I believe, a Bee Orchid. I’ve been watching this small colony in Conil, Spain, for a few years. Last year they didn’t appear, probably because it was very dry. This year there are lots of small … Continue reading

As I spent many years chasing rainbows, sunsets, moonrises or any kind of moody excitement happening in the sky whilst on car shoots, I acquired the knickname ‘The Prince of Darkness’. A couple of jornalists in particular knew that if they came out with me, they would always miss their tea. Sorry guys!. Old habits die hard. But here are some shots for you, without tin boxes!.
I found these photographs whilst searching for something else this afternoon. Taken a couple of years ago, they illustrate the spectacular cloud formations that can occur at certain times of the year on the Alantic Coastline, near Cape Trafalgar.

Cliff top marker in 2009, Cala del Aceite
In the summer of 2009 I took this photograph of one of the markers lining the cliff-top path, near Cala del Aceite, which stand like skittles on a conveyor belt. This Atlantic coastline is exposed to extreme weather conditions at certain times of the year. It is battered by storms and also subject to torrential rain, meaning the cliffs are similutaneously undercut and washed out to sea.
