This is a much nicer way to get to Lewes, if you've got the bike for it. Would have been miserable riding this on a road bike!

Calm seas
Another one where I felt like I didn't really stop all day. Sea looked super calm, and there was so many people around. Really wanted to take more pictures but had the dog so couldn't.
Filler
We've got some super nice rooftops/chimneys around here. Which is fortunate because I got nothing else today.
Tea
I found some loose-leaf tea. It tastes like murray mints, and it smells amazing.

Carry jump-leads in your car, learn to jump-start it. Learn how to recognise the polarity of your battery. Don't be scared to grab a smoking jump-lead terminal when you realise your mistake. Maybe carry a fire extinguisher too?
Don't feel like you've failed as a person because others were more prepared than you, and they were there to help you out.
Don't resent any and all good luck that comes your way, like you have to earn luck, and if you didn't then you don't deserve it and you shouldn't have got it.
If that's how luck actually worked, this world might be worth living in.
MacBook Pro-crastinator
I've got so much to do, and I don't want to do any of it. If you leave things until the last minute, they only take a minute, right?
Monday
A very Mondayish Monday. It's so hot in my office.
IKEA
Charlotte loves IKEA, and the Brighton one is finally opening. Will be nice to not have to go to Croydon or Southampton.
Martin Parr
I love Martin Parr. He's the only photographer I can think of that I would happily plagiarise all day every day.
Jordi Alkema at Folklore Rooms
Jordi is a friend from badminton and he plays the guitar and sings.
Clouds
And you thought I forgot!
A beautiful field
I woke up early this morning and, as I sat aimlessly scrolling on my phone, I thought I should go and take the dog on a long walk instead.
New Bike Day!
I have wanted a Mason ever since we started working with them. I am a very happy boy right now.
The opposite
Almost no opportunities to take photos today. I used up all my credits yesterday. How is it only Wednesday?!
A mixed bag
Way above average number of photo opportunities today. One I really wish I'd had the confidence to do better than I did.
Headache
My least favourite after a super intense headache, is feeling woozy the next day. Doesn't feel fair.
Pizza
I wasn't going to do a pizza photo but got the most brutal headache and I'm not going looking for another photo.
Blackberry nerd
Went to our village fare, got a Tiffany charm bracelet, went blackberry picking.
July Recap
July felt very long, and not in a bad way for once!
We went to the theatre to see Tabitha's favourite: Noughts and Crosses. No photos from that, but we did have an enjoyable day mooching around London.
It was my 40th birthday which coincided with a trip to Silverstone to wat...
Keep your distance
I forgot to do everything today.
Seven Sisters with Daniel and family
Daniel is over to go to Cornwall with his family, but stopped off to say hello on his way.
How things become part of your life
It's story time! Don't worry though I'll keep it short.
Choice
Hurt my foot when walking the dog this morning.
First Answer, Best Answer
I could have slept in for one thousand hours today.
Combine
Went out for a long walk with the dog. Wanted to get some shots with the drone. Didn't get anything I liked.
iPadOS 26 Window Management
The way "multi-tasking" works on the public betas of iPad OS 26 is extremely unintuitive.
Stairs
Slow photo day. Spent the day doing pretty exclusively non-photography-related things, which was nice then stressful.
Desire Line
Repeated our walk a little earlier today. No cute horses, no lovely landscape scenes.
Forest met a horse today
Went for a 5km walk with Forest before work, and a horse was very interested to meet him.
Trevor
J came round in his TVR this afternoon. It sounds like an absolute monster.
