So, I've decided to rock my photography, like it's 1989. I've created a new account on Flickr (if one can believe it!), and you can find me here: www.flickr.com/photos/monoc... Would love to connect on there.

I've started going back through my archives and came across this one I had forgotten I'd taken. It's definitely not the kind of thing I shoot now, but I loved the sense of experimentation. I think this is going into a new folder called "Photos I don't remember taking but actually really like".

I’ve been away a while. So, I’m into black and white landscapes. Who should I be following?

And whilst I'm at it, here's 4 of my favourite tree photos, from back along. I guess I'm re-introducing myself to people. Hi!

I also spent a little time wandering around London with my camera...

So, what's happened in the 6 months or so since I dropped off the edge of Bluesky? • I got a bit of my life back • I started writing on Substack • I joined Foto and have been posting a few images there • I printed and am selling a second run of my book 'The Dark Wood'. • I stopped using Vero

I'm back... Maybe.

Who is on @fotoapp.co at the moment? Heres me! the.fotoapp.co/michaelbeecham

I'm not going to blow own trumpet or anything, but this image gave me a 'highly commended' in LPOTY a few years ago. It's the only time I've entered, and only did it so I could say I had. Sometimes you just have to follow your gut. #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography #Fog #Landscape

Finally finished (again) the watch-through of Netflix's 'Dark', and this track just hits perfect this evening with my headphones on. It takes me back to 'THAT moment' in Dark towards the end. Just so so so good. @netflix.com - You better not ever remove it! music.apple.com/gb/album/my-...

I took this image around 6 or 7 years ago, as part of my first long-form project 'The Downs'. I was shooting the same location over all season, and the first thing I learned, is that the low-hanging fruit in a project goes pretty darned quickly. #BlackAndWhite #Photography #SelfPortrait #Monochrome

@fotoapp.co Hey there, I'm fairly new to owning an iPhone, and definitely new to Foto. Can you tell me, is saving an image to your phone (Photos app) the only way to get an image into your app? I can't even see a way of pulling an image in from an iCloud folder. Is this right? #foto

Evening all. Saturday night, innit. Bosh.

Marie is good people. If you're not already following her gorgeous writing on Substack (I am), then you should definitely start today. Today, do you hear me?

This is a lovely, thoughtful gift from Dave. Anyone out there who would benefit?

I've written a new article on Substack about my experiences in the sanctuary I find the most rest and peace for my mental health - the woodland! open.substack.com/pub/quieters...

Woodland, for me, is an altogether different world when the fog rolls in. It's deeps and mysterious and enchanting. I see the same place through different eyes. Like looking at a landscape for the first time. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography #Woodland #Fog

@birchtree.me @chrislawley.me - Hey guys, catching up on the latest episode, and you've returned to the topic of podcast apps. Given that you were discussing Overcast and Castro, does this mean that Pocketcasts has dropped off the radar for you? Are the two discussed a better option in '25?

I still remember taking this photo, notably for the weather that we were facing when we arrived. It was New Year’s Day 2022 and, by the time we arrived, was absolutely throwing it down. But once you're wet you're wet. #Photography #LandscapePhotography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #CoastalPhotography

If you’d like to follow my work on substack. Here’s my latest entry open.substack.com/pub/jongibbs...

I know I've shot and posted this scene 100s of times in the past, but I just can't get over it. You could be forgiven for thinking that all I do is wait for foggy weather, then head up onto the hill. But I just love this view so much. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography

I've written a new article on Substack about a recent trip to London, and finding an oasis of quiet amongst the bustle. quieterspaces.substack.com/p/finding-th...

Over the course of my 20+ years shooting, I would say that there are, maybe, 10 that I think are really good images - and I don’t use that term lightly. I think this is one of them. #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #Documentary #StreetPhotography #Reportage #Photography

As well as my own persona Substack account, I've also created a publication account, where I'm going to writing posts dedicated more to finding a little bit of peace and quiet in the crazy online world we're in these days. Come say hello! quieterspaces.substack.com #substack #photography #mindful

Such a gorgeous image from Thale

Another image from the 3 days of glorious fog we had at the beginning of the year. Hoping for a little more before the spring kicks in. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography #Trees #Fog

My county is the best county. Fact!

For those using Substack, I'd love to connect with you. I'm loving it more and more. michaelbeecham.substack.com?r=3jozla

I can still remember this day. It was cold, silent and utterly beautiful. This is not a location I had set out for. I was visiting a woodland on the other side of the road and yet, I found this new discovery. #BlackAndWhite #Photography #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography #Woodland #Fog

Goodness, Grant nailed such a lovely image. That waterfall is banging but, for me, it's the light in the trees. I love it.

Dark and brooding woodlands are, strangely, my happy place. I love them. The creaking of the trunks, the wind whispering it's secrets amongst the leaves. Haunting, and lovely. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography #Trees #Woodland

Morning BluFam. Hope you've had a good week. Let's crack on with the weekend

Some things are just more important. #Photography #Monochrome #BlackAndWhite #Landscape #Valentine

Any photographers on here, using Substack? I'd love to connect with you and see what you're writing and showing. #substack #photography #photographysubstack

Evening all, how we doing?

I've written a new thing about the importance of keeping going. quieterspaces.substack.com/p/under-the-...

Hey @flashes.blue when will beta open again? Looking forward to getting involved with testing

Morning Matt - thanks very much. And yeah, without the puddle and the muddy tracks, this image wouldn't really work. I appreciate you noticed it.

Football field, Dorset - January 2025 #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography

Evening all, how are we doing? Almost the end of the weekend. How's it been?

Such a peaceful image from Chris. Gentle, soft, beautiful.

I'm just going to say it right now, Season 2 of #severance is even more bananas than the first one. This week's episode is craaaaaaazy

One of my happy places in life is Dartmoor. There’s just something about the stillness, which is intoxicating and addictive. There is nothing to be heard, apart from the wind blowing across the landscape, and the birdsong overhead. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #LandscapePhotography

Gold Hill is well known after a 1970s television advert for bread, directed by Ridley Scott. I’ve shot it countless times. What’s sad to me, is that people stop there and don't venture to the right with a minute's walk. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #Fog #Landscape #Moody

My first Friday post has gone live. This is my 2-year project ‘Grass’. A militant taking back of my time and mental health, standing in fields of wild grass and looking like some kind of shady character with a camera. #substack open.substack.com/pub/quieters...

I know I'm on a bit of a Substack groove at the moment, but I've finally created my own publication and written my first article. Would be super chuffed if you were so inclined to take a look! Quieter Spaces quieterspaces.substack.com?r=3jozla&utm... #substack

Another one of those weird trees, and sometimes you just get lucky with the atmospherics and the light! #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Monochrome #Landscape #Fog #Trees
