During lockdown, I was lucky enough to see a Zoom presentation by a wildlife artist / photographer called Steve Williams (thanks to Lowestoft Photographic Club). He demonstrated some images where he visited one location over the period of a year which got me thinking.

 

Not far from where I live is a 6.7 hectare strip of land that was nearly covered with several housing estates, if it hadn't been for the discovery of some very rare organisms that made their home there.

​

So, in the first week of January, I took my camera, lens and tripod with me to see what I could see. The plan was to keep going back for the rest of the year to witness the changes that took place and make a series of record images, with some basic photography equipment.

​

This gradually developed into a 52 week long project where I visited Mill Meadows at least once a week (sometimes twice). It has been a struggle to keep going but at the time of writing this, I am currently on my 31st week.

​

I hope you enjoy what you see ...
