My best shots is a difficult one to define. I'm not a photographer, merely an enthusiast who simply enjoys taking photographs.
I generally capture images out on my bike, on holidays or something of interest, particularly the outdoors.
Usually, my images are taken on a Smartphone or my trusty DSLR.
By capturing images I always feel I'm new and learning. Never the expert, with so much to learning myself and be inspired by others.
Caption: My best shots mainly comprise of the story behind it and to me, that means more than the shot itself.
After all, everyone takes photos and the world is awash with imagery that nobody really pays any attention too.
Not that it is poor, more so there is far too much and it is difficult to know what to choose.
With that said, here are a selection of my best shots. They all have a story to tell, so rather than focus solely on the shot itself, the story has probably more impact.

Is a favourite of mine, it is a tree I pass every day, going to work and back. In all weathers, it stands tall and tells many different stories. It is a natural beauty that stands amongst nothing. Strong, elegant in its form.

Selecting image two was easy. Just me in the place where I grew up.
Even despite not living here now, it remains a place I love and enjoy coming back to, over and over.
The chance to sit here and watch the world go by is all to appealing for me.

Light is supposedly a photographers best friend. What you do with it and what you capture is the tricky bit.
I like nothing more than morning light as it offers the chance to experience some magical moments.
Here the light slowly creeps between the trees on a local lane.

Being in the right place, at the right time. For image four, I have learned it is always handy to carry your Smartphone with you, as those unique moments happen when you least expect them too.

The famous lighthouse at Rubjerg Knude in Denmark. I love Denmark and I loved this location. As popular as it is, it is well worth the visit and provides the chance to marvel in this amazing landmark and landscape.

I love nature. I love trees and I love the weather. So, when the ingredients are right what better chance do you have to get outside, wander and enjoy the surroundings you find yourself in.
