Have you ever heard the term “biophilic design”? I would imagine that the majority of people wouldn’t have as it is not exactly a term that is mentioned on a regular basis in the news or the social arena. It’s basically the concept of bringing nature into our internal spaces to boost our physical and mental wellbeing. It’s a term that has been used since the 1960s but it became more and more popular during the recent pandemic.
There has been plenty of rain in the UK already this month and for those keen on photography, it can soon become somewhat frustrating. And this frustration is the same for those who have a photography assignment to complete. I am happy to be patient for one day, perhaps even two. But when the rain continues into a third day, with the weather forecast suggesting that it will be here for quite a while yet, I then start to become restless.
There are times when taking your average run-of-the-mill photo just isn’t enough. We feel the need to go to the next level in an attempt to take something a little more dramatic and inspiring. This could be to do with our increased confidence in our overall photography skills or just to try something a little bit different from what we have done before.
After experiencing the joy and excitement of going on holiday it can be somewhat of a drag to return home. Post-holiday blues impact way more people than not and it can often take a while to get back into the swing of things and back into the reality of everyday life.

The saying goes that a dog is a man’s best friend. In reality, we are a pet-loving nation and the majority of people, whether male or female, who has ever had a dog as a pet will have felt the love and joy of doing so. They truly are part of the family and give a type of unconditional love which is heartwarming.

There are times when we all need a little boost, and the same can, at various periods, be said for where we live. What once looked like an incredible room with inspiring decor can, after a while, look a little dated and jaded. It basically could do with a little sprucing up, whether that be with some new furniture, a lick of paint, some new wallpaper, or new flooring. These are just a few examples of where a room could be updated.
There is just something about being close to water that seems to bring out the best in people. And by water, I mean the sea, a river, a lake, or something similar. My favourite has to be the sea; I just love being at the coast, sitting on the beach and walking along the promenade. I might be in a bit of a bad mood, or be somewhat stressed and anxious, but as soon as the sea comes into view all of that negativity just seems to drift away.
It doesn’t feel like we have had much of a summer here in the UK. Many people are hoping that the next few weeks will see an improvement in the weather, which will enable everyone to enjoy the outdoors on a more regular basis. Being outside when the sun is shining brings about plenty of photo opportunities whether it be photographing areas of beauty, nature or family events.
