We've just launched our first ever coffee table style book! The response to it has blown us away! We were very nervous about taking the plunge and producing a book but we're thrilled at how it has turned out 😊 #LandscapePhotography #IsleofWight

Sunset at St Catherine's Lighthouse taken a couple of days ago. The most southerly point of the Island and a wonderful place for photography. #IsleofWight #Photography

This shot was taken a couple of hours prior to the Needles shot I posted yesterday. It was much calmer at Sandown, the sea was still choppy but the reflections of Culver Down were fun to photograph. #IsleofWight #SandownBay #LandscapePhotography

Yet another visit to the Needles yesterday to photograph the stormy conditions. A few other locations were snapped too, it was perfect landscape photography weather! #IsleofWight #TheNeedles

Sunset at the Needles yesterday. It was flat calm, but a breeze ruined the reflections! #IsleofWight #Photography

The crescent moon setting over the Needles last night. It appears full due to Earthshine. The light on the water is reflections from Venus, which is out of shot. #IsleofWight #Astrophotography #LandscapePhotography #TheNeedles

It's a rainy, rather than snowy morning here on the Isle of Wight, but it's the Winter Solstice! Bring on the lighter days! This is Shanklin Old Village photographed on the rare occasion that we get a dusting of snow.

Yesterday's sunset at the Needles. We returned after the previous attempt gave a fiery, angry looking sky. This was a little more gentle, still not ideal but that's the fun of landscape photography! #IsleofWight #Photography

Taken a couple of hours ago at the Needles. It was freezing down on Alum Bay in the biting wind. #Photography #IsleofWight

Stag Rock at Freshwater being pounded by the sea during a storm a couple of years ago. Taken from inside our van, using a telephoto lens. We were much further away than it looks! #IsleofWight #StormySeas

This image was taken at Castlehaven on the south coast of the Island. It's entitled Incoming Storm, which seems appropriate for the current weather forecast here!

Compton Bay, looking rather peaceful in the late afternoon light. #IsleofWight #Compton #LandscapePhotography

We don't often get a decent covering of snow here so we have to make the most of it when we do! This view is looking towards Tennyson Down with the crescent moon so bright that it appears to be full. #IsleofWight #FreshwaterBay #LandscapePhotography #Sunset

This was taken a couple of years ago when we were treated to some wonderful views of Comet Neowise. The dark skies here are perfect for astro photography. Out on this shoot the comet was clearly visible to the naked eye, not just the camera. #AstroPhotography #StandingStoneSunday #IsleofWight

Sunset at Ventnor from earlier this week. After we'd had a wander along the cliff top (see earlier post) we hung around as the sky was showing some potential for colour. It didn't disappoint.

Yesterday afternoon at Ventnor. We went for a wander before sunset and the light was both wintery, yet beautiful. #IsleofWight #Ventnor #LandscapePhotography

A misty day in Brighstone Forest. It's beautiful in there at any time, but when the fog rolls in it has an ethereal and magical feel to it. #IsleofWight #Brighstone #Photography #AvailableLight #Autumn

A frosty morning at the Causeway in Afton. This is near Freshwater Bay on the Isle of Wight. Blimey was it cold on that particular morning! #IsleofWight #Afton #LandscapePhotography #FrostyDawn

A view down Ryde Pier, a gateway to the Island. This image is a few years old and the pier has recently been renovated with a new pedestrianised walkway. #AvailableLight #Ryde #IsleofWight #LandscapePhotography

Taken from Players beach near Ryde. Portsmouth is only a few miles across the Solent, but it often feels like another world from the Island! #IsleofWight #Portsmouth #Solent #LandscapePhotography

Freshwater Bay being pounded by some powerful waves. The light on this day was perfect for photography as it was so dramatic. A telephoto lens was used enabling us to keep at a safe distance from the sea. #IsleofWight #LandscapePhotography #FreshwaterBay

St Catherine's Lighthouse under the Milky Way. We have great opportunities for night photography here, particularly the southern side of the Island where there is little light pollution. This is one of our favourite locations #IsleofWight #LandscapePhotography #AvailableLight #AstroPhotography

A misty morning over Newchurch and out to sea. The delicate colours were so pretty and the mist breathtaking. Sometimes it's difficult to remember to take a photo when the view is this spectacular! #IsleofWight #LandscapePhotography #AvailableLight

We've been on Bluesky for over a year, but I've neglected our account until now, it will be fun sharing old favourites like this one. This was taken at the end of a grey and rainy day in Chale. There was a gap on the horizon as the sun set. For all of 30 seconds the colour was spectacular.

Steephill Cove, photographed yesterday evening. After a busy day at the shop it was nice to get out and down to the coast. The best part of the job!

A recent shot of the Needles after a storm. The stormy sky gave such dramatic light as the sun broke through. The churning of the sea had stirred the chalk, giving this surreal colour to the water. Perfect weather for landscape photography.

Today we've been working on designing a new information board to hang outside our shop. We're seriously considering this view of Compton Bay to go on it. It's not one of our most popular scenes, but is a personal favourite of mine. It also features on our van!
