An Unhelpful Guide to… Herculaneum

You’ve probably noticed that I’m a travel blogger and photographer, but if you’ve just found this site, you might not know that in my day…

An Unhelpful Guide to… New York & The Rockaways

If you’ve read my Unhelpful Guide to Boston (and if you haven’t, why not?!), you’ll know that I recently spent three weeks in the USA…

Shout out to the lovely lady @wacom support who managed to get my 10-year-old graphics tablet working with my brand new Mac even though neither the tablet nor the drivers are still officially supported, thereby saving me from having to send it to landfill and buy a new one 🙌

A leopard seal dozes on an iceberg in Antarctica. He may look cute now, but these guys are one of the most fearsome predators in the ocean and the only seals that hunt not only fish but warm-blooded prey too, including other seals.

Have you figured out your zoom setup yet?
.
I’ve been hating doing video calls because I can’t bear to look at myself with no makeup and unwashed hair! It helps if you make an effort with your appearance of course, but sadly there’s nothing I can do about those roots 🙈
.
Then think about your setup. Try to get the camera to as close to eye to level as possible - put the computer on a stack of books if necessary.
.
The best light is soft window light so a table facing a window like I have here is ideal, but avoid having harsh direct sunlight on your face.
.
Then finally think about the background - being able to see the room is better than a blank wall but make sure there’s nothing untoward in the back of shot (next time I will close the bathroom door a little more!)
.
Where’s your favourite spot in the house for video calls?

Woohoo! I'm so chuffed to announce that I'm a fina

Woohoo! I'm so chuffed to announce that I'm a finalist for Global Travel Photographer 2020 at the Global Travel Media Alliance Awards!
.
I had to enter a set of five images that "together, capture the spirit of travel" and "encourage wanderlust and exploration from a variety of perspectives". I hope the judges think I've done that with my five images of South Georgia, taken last Christmas - and doesn't that seem like a lifetime ago now?!

First prize is a 15-day Arctic Cruise Adventure from Oslo, Norway to the Svalbard Islands, and from the remote east coast of Greenland to the West Fjords of Iceland - sponsored by @aktravel_usa .
The competition is fierce and the other finalists are *incredible* so I'm really happy just to be selected... but my GOD wouldn't it be amazing to win that prize! 🤞🤞🤞

Here’s one of the images I’ve had printed to hang on my living room wall. I just love the symmetry and the perfect stillness - it’s so calming!
Except now I need the mount to arrive so I can hang it! Hurry up! 😫

If you’ve managed to take a look at my fabulous new blog redesign, you might recognise this photo.
I put it as a featured image on my homepage because it’s one of my favourites from Antarctica.
With the tiny little zodiac in front of that huge iceberg you can really get a sense of how vast and empty the place is.
If you haven’t seen it yet, do take a look at the blog. There are loads more lovely photos and stories to check out. Link in my bio!
