JIGSAW99 an RAF A400m out of RAF Brize Norton, love the 'jelly' and distorted air as a result, the heat the engines kick out is bonkers! Superb pass from one of the main pilots!

So sad to hear the passing of Pete J Morris, owner of Little Dragon Pizza Van. A good friend, always supported my photography and always asked me for images, even suggesting i make a book of my images and could sell them on his van, i never got round to it, but it was an amazing compliment the fact he asked, he recently used some of my Pen y Fan images for his new location. He always aimed high, perfecting his pizzas and making sure this would always be the case with his amazing staff. Always had nice chats, he'd often message and call if he saw some exciting birds on the moors, the last one being a Hen Harrier, he absolutely loved them and enjoyed watching them as he crafted his pizzas. I hope his legacy lives on in the brand. RIP buddy. x

Sad to have heard this morning that Alyn Wallace Photography passed away. Had many a great outings with Alyn, always there to chat and have a laugh. This publication was one we both had a great time getting done, crazy night running around, I went to meet a very impatient journalist whilst Alyn was finishing off a chat at a local camera club. Aware that we were on a tight schedule as the clouds were forecast to roll in, he raced over in the nick of time to start the shoot! We got a brilliant write up and had fun in the process. Fittingly tonight south Wales has clear skies and looking up i can see a new star shining down on us! RIP buddy!

Time lapse of last weekend's abnormal on the wrong side of the A465 near the Llanelly hill / Clydach junction. They had to inspect the bridge and mark out where the lorry was to drive to safely get across as the road surface has dropped a couple of mm since it was constructed. 700 tonnes isn't easy to move around! @followers Gwent Police South Wales Police Traffic Wales South - Traffig Cymru De BBC Wales News BBC Cymru Wales Canon UK Allelys Gwent & More

Looking back over the year of 'wildlife' 2023, I have had some great photo opportunities and excursions that I never thought I would be able to achieve making some new friends along the way. I definitely had a lot of firsts this year. I thank each and every one of you for helping and supporting me! All these images and more are available as a digital download or prints on canvas or metal etc. Below are some of my favorites from 2023. Happy New Year all #natgeopoy23 @followers Canon UK

Merry Christmas everyone. Have a lovely, happy time.
