I’m Steve, just someone trying to make my way in the World. I’ve volunteered with several mental health organisations for a few years. For those of you interested in such things, I’ve had anxiety and depression for two decades. Through my camera I see things from a different perspective. I’ve been wandering with my camera taking photos for about 7 years. I have an interest in astronomy and astrophotography, even if that means freezing my face off on winter nights. Occasionally I also like to write poetry – and yes that is a unicorn hat.
I realise that not everyone can do this so I’m inviting you to join in as I share some of my photos. If you just want to view and enjoy the pictures feel free. If you’d like to tell me what you think of them please do. If you’d like to share some of your own that’s great. If you’d like to know a bit more about each of the photos as we go let me know in the comments.
