I took over 2800 photos in 2023. Actually, I took a lot more because we went on safari in the summer and I have worked hard to cull as many shots that I could from that trip. Even so, that left me with nearly 1000 pictures of wildlife that I want to keep.<\/p>\n

My selected favourites<\/a> bear witness to the fact that this has very much been a year of travel \u2013 mostly to cities and mostly for work. I started and finished the year with trips to Germany. Sharped-eyed viewers will see that over the course of the last 12 months I have visited Berlin, Ballymena, Vienna, Cambridge, Brussels, Barcelona, Geneva, Auschwitz, Valencia, Kenya, Leiden, Killyleagh, Bologna, Tokyo, and Hannover \u2013 not forgetting, of course, my home town of London.<\/p>\n
