The older I get the more I seem to enjoy just sitting around watching the world go by and there is no better place to do that in than a city park. Of course the world I was watching was the feathered variety but who’s counting?

It has always been a bit of thing for me when watching undoubtedly incredible wildlife documentaries in that they always paint the world as some technicolor dreamland when everyday life, whilst nothing like as spectacular, is just as rewarding to capture and usually can be done from the comfort, in this case, of a park bench. Now I am not trying to compare myself to the best wildlife photographers because I will never be motivated to be anything like as good. Nonetheless I enjoy capturing the day to day and when you have bright winter’s day then things are just that much easier.

In these crazy crazy times we all need to take time to sit on a park bench and watch the world go by.
