Well, last night's lunar eclipse was a no-show in the Cambridgeshire fens, and to be honest, when I looked out tonight I wasn't hopeful. But, wonders will never cease, the Harvest Moon cut through what looked like pretty thick clouds. #harvestmoon #fullmoon #elycathedral

Slight reworking of the "multiple exposure" full "Buck" Moon rising behind @elycathedral.bsky.social, last night, 10th July 2025. I prefer the alignment of these shots to the previous one. @weatheraisling.bsky.social @itvanglia.bsky.social @chrispage90.bsky.social #fullmoon #moonrise

It's been a while … sunset behind @elycathedral.bsky.social this evening, 23rd June 2025 #sunset

Strawberry Moon rising behind Ely Cathedral this evening (10th June 2025). Took some time for it to clear the low cloud/mist layer, had it been clear would have been a stunner … one that got away!

Sunrise today behind @elycathedral.bsky.social as seen from Haddenham, some 5 miles away. #dawn #sunrise #daybreak @chrispage90.bsky.social @weatheraisling.bsky.social

Good morning, misty sunrise today behind King's College Chapel in Cambridge.

Partial eclipse today, as seen from Cambridgeshire. The high cloud was playing havoc with the focus and exposure, but got a few shots. #Eclipse2025 #EclipseSolar

Taken eight years ago, but seems to fit the mood today

December marks the point at which the Sun reaches it most northerly sunrise, which coincides with my favourite viewpoint of dawn behind Ely Cathedral accross the fields. This December has been an almost complete washout for me, so here are a selection of December dawn shots from previous years.

Word of the Day is a true favourite, as some of you will know. Apricity (17th century) is the warmth of the sun on a winter’s day.

Good morning all.

November has felt pretty grim so far, with only a couple of days when the sun has broken through in Cambridgeshire. Seems like another year will pass without me getting to the Lakes or Scotland. At the time I was taking this shot I was also trying to stem the bleeding from a finger, 12 years ago!

Unbroken clouds over Cambridgeshire are obstructing any chance of capturing the last supermoon of the year. I've searched my archive and see that I've never managed to capture a moon image in November. So here is a more typical November shot, St John's College chapel, from Castle Hill in Cambridge.

Good morning everyone. Friday is childcare day for us, and our 2-year-old granddaughter will be running us ragged as usual! "If I'd known grandchildren were so much fun I'd have had them first!" 😄

Set the alarm for 5:45, giving me 45 minutes to get to viewpoint. Looked out of window … unbroken cloud. Went back to bed. No moonset this morning, so here is one from a couple of years ago from the same spot. The photographer's life. 🫤

Word of the Day, should you need it, is ‘latibulate’, a 17th-century verb meaning to find a corner somewhere and hide in it.

Good morning. Word of the Day is as beautiful as it is underused. ‘Confelicity’ is finding joy in the happiness and success of others.

More autumnal colour

The November full moon ("Beaver Moon" or "Frosty Moon") is due this weekend. Difficult to find a viewpoint for the moonrise near Ely Cathedral, so planning on trying moonset over St Andrew's church, here in Sutton-in-the-Isle. All so weather dependent, but might be able to get something like this.

Hi, new platform, let's hope it lives up to its name. Autumn colours around Angeles Abbey this week.
