  1. #London's #TrafalgarSquare, featuring the Norwegian #ChristmasTree.

    The City of #Oslo has sent a #Christmas tree to London every year since 1947 as a gift of gratitude to the peoples of London for the support during World War II.

    However, this may be the last Norwegian Christmas tree given to London due to concerns over impacts to the environment of shipping a tree every year.

  2. I haven't been in #London for a good few weeks as have been away, but saw tonight that all the #Christmas lights have been put up on #OxfordStreet and #RegentStreet already.

    There's something really nice about how London looks getting towards Christmastime. 🎄

    Shot with #SonyXperia PRO-I with the #Sirui 1.33x #AnamorphicLens adapter.

  3. Went out to play with the #Sirui 1.33x #anamorphic adapter for mobile phones earlier today, shooting a sunrise at #HadleighCastle in #Essex.

    Initially, I wanted to get an anamorphic lens with neutral-coloured flare for my full frame camera, but seeing this makes me just want to stick with the blue flare which most people associate with anamorphic lenses.

  4. Into the Blue: The Beauty of Iceland's Melting Glaciers.

    I shot this waterfall inside a glacier cave within the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier.

  5. Being in #Reykjavik city centre, there was not a hope in hell of me seeing the #AuroraBorealis (#NorthernLights) with the naked eye. But I could find the Big Dipper with the naked eye, so I simply pointed my camera at the saucepan in the sky and fired off a few shots in the dark. This was one of those shots.

  6. This photograph catches the moment that the jet of water and superheated steam burst through the surface of the water at the Strokkur geyser, Iceland.

  7. My last trip was the first trip I ever made out of #HeathrowAirport's #Terminal2, but it wasn't actually the first time I've been to T2.

    I was one of the lucky test passengers pretending to board fake flights to stress test the terminal before it opened for real.

    It's nice to be back and NOT miss my actual flight though, as during the testing phase, despite arriving on time, I missed my fake flight due to the way the queues and the systems crashing.

  8. Am absolutely knackered after about a week in #Iceland, but dang do I have some wonderful shots to share in due course!

  9. #CherryBlossoms season in Japan is usually around March to April, although you can usually see them later than that if you go to an area where the temperature is cooler.

    I shot these in late April on the banks of #LakeAshi in #Hakone. Lake Ashi is 723m above sea level, where the temperature is cool enough for the cherry blossoms to be around in late April / beginning of May.

  10. CW: #2022ByStills: Late night snack on the overnight train...

    #2022ByStills: Always a sucker for the food when I travel on a #train which has a buffet coach.

    Absolutely no different on overnight train from #Tampere to #Rovaniemi - late night snack was a small pizza and some sausages.

    Shot with #SonyXperia1III.

  11. CW: #2022ByStills: Train station lockers...

    #2022ByStills: Many #train stations in #Finland have lockers big enough to fit a suitcase, making travelling around by train quite easy, especially if exploring a location during the few hours between trains.

    Luggage can be stored in the lockers for up to 24 hours and takes coins, so make sure you have a supply of coins.

  12. CW: #2022ByStills: Moomin Museum...

    #2022ByStills: "‘What are you?’ asked the small creature. ‘I’m a moomintroll,’ answered #Moomintroll, who had got his courage back."

    The #Moomins is one of the most famous exports of #Finland. This is the #MoominMuseum in #Tampere.

    Shot by my girlfriend with #SonyXperia1III.

  13. CW: #2022ByStills: Cooking...

    #2022ByStills: Staying at #AirBNB accommodations is a really good way to travel as you can shop for ingredients at local markets / supermarkets to get a feel for how locals live their lives.

    Shot with #LeicaQ2.

  14. CW: #2022ByStills: Helsinki Central Railway Station...

    #2022ByStills: This is #Helsinki Central Railway Station. A train connects the airport directly to the city centre, taking around half an hour.

    I also discovered that it is VERY difficult to pull and push a wheeled suitcase through snow and ice.

    Shot with #SonyXperia1III.
