This blog is ALL my OWN work , I take all the Photos myself. I use a basic Samsung PL 22 14mp camera with 5x zoom.

I travel all over the West Midlands and beyond for my work. I take pictures when out running, cycling, walking. I see so much I'd like to keep a record.

We've travelled all over in our VW campervan - I'm not a photographer, but I hope I can capture just a little of what I see. Please click on the photos for information about them and click again for a large image. Please feel free to reblog as many photos as you like - search the archive for more it goes back to March 2012.
