The Threshing Party
Story posted: 10. September 2011 by Nick Cable
Well the end of summer means only one thing in the farming community and that is – harvest time !
I was recently lucky enough to experience at first hand some of the local agricultural activities here on the Somerset Levels. My farmer friend Tom invited me to photograph a ‘threshing’ session (yes my eyebrows did raise an inch or two when it was first suggested !)…

Brittany - a quick update !
Story posted: 1. September 2011 by Nick Cable

There’s nothing better that spending a weekend driving around country lanes in search of new subjects to photograph. I put my photographers hat on over the weekend and subjected myself to some serious shutter bashing to blow away the cobwebs.
