Footprints in the Sand
I feel better when I connect with nature, and nothing beats the nice warm sand between the toes. Plenty of self care moments can be had with nature.
Man Made Lines
I feel better when I can use photography mindfully and capture beauty in man made structures as well as nature. The sharp lines and colours make this scene stand out. Taken at University of Nottingham, Jubilee Campus.

I feel better when the fairy lights shine for me
When the fairy lights are shining they help me to escape to a world in my mind that is loving, caring and giving, it helps me block out the darkness that sometimes surrounds me.
The best things in life are free
I feel better when I take a moment to look, to really look at how beautiful our world is. I think we sometimes forget with all the bad that happens in life, how lucky we are to be able to stand, listen and breathe and to remember how precious life is.

I feel better when I am Protected
I feel the embrace between the two lemurs signifies the feeling of being protected and having someone watch over you, which makes me feel a sense of safety and reassurance.
Field House
A small house on the edge of a field, on the edge of a coastal walk. Oil on canvas. The little house is the focal point. Just beyond is the suggestion of rolling countryside, as the coast curves away into the distance. The middle ground is full of yellow hay and the left foreground is a squiggle of seed heads.
Yellow and warm, with a light refreshing breeze; a place to rest.
Mother Nature
I am happy when I notice how beautiful Mother Nature can be

I feel better when I am taking photos, I feel like there is no one else around me and I feel safe and comfortable taking photos for hours, I feel like I am in my own bubble and nothing can bother me when I have my cameras.
This is a photo of a baby amur leopard at Twycross Zoo.
