Another infra-red shot of Beaumaris Castle on the island of Anglesey, North Wales. I think I prefer the previous one though. The 90 second exposure has rendered the swans invisible, but their swirling wake is still visible. There are also a few ghostly pigeons on top of the foreground tower.

This was taken last month on Dinas Dinlle Beach in North Wales. The stuff in the foreground is seaweed which was floating up from the sand as the tide came in over it.

This is the last photo from me before shortly heading up to the Cairngorms for Winterwatch, which is back on TV on Monday. This picture is from my most recent trip to Scotland.

OK, so it isn't the most festive of images. This little dilapidated hut sits on the outskirts of the Forest of Dean, near the River Severn. Shot in infra-red with an 80 second exposure on a windy day, cropped and converted to black and white.
I wish everyone on Flickr, friends, contacts and passers-by a very merry Christmas and a happy new year. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to look at or comment on my pictures, and particular thanks for all the kind messages of support in what has been a really difficult year for my family. The year is ending more positively - Alli has reached the end of her treatment and all has gone well.
Well done Alli ♥

This was shot from the beach at Durdle Door, looking towards Bat's Head. The shingle of the beach drops away very steeply, but occasionally the waves would breach the slope, leaving large pools of water on the shingle. They would only last for seconds, before melting away between the stones.
