Blog – Page 559 – The photography of Paul L.G. Morris

I always carry a camera even when popping out to get a newspaper:

I went out to my local petrol station to buy a newspaper at about 10 o’clock one morning a couple of days ago and, as I pulled into the parking area, I saw this green woodpecker (Picus viridis) pecking in the grass. I pulled out my compact camera that I always carry and took two photos through the windscreen before I got out of the car.

I then got out of the car and started to walk carefully towards the bird but it flew away.

Interestingly, last year about the same time, I saw a similar woodpecker doing the same thing in the same patch of grass. I did take some some photos but it was a very dull day so the photos were not worth keeping.

I am an amateur photographer whose photography is mostly of gardens, nature and the rural environment. My specialities are close-ups, panoramic views, or a combination of both that I call ‘Nearscapes’.

I also produce interactive virtual tours and virtual walk videos.

I work mostly for my own interest having closed my business PM Studios Ltd. View all posts by Paul L.G. Morris
