I created Gary Goes to motivate myself to get out more and also improve my photography skills.

I first thought I’d just post my photos on social media, but I wanted to avoid getting sucked into doomscrolling all day and there doesn’t seem to be a social media platform which isn’t evil. So a blog feels like the best way to share my photos and experiences in a more personal, distraction free way.

While my main audience will be family and friends, it would be nice if others with similar interests find my posts useful. Please keep in mind: just because I’m publishing this stuff doesn’t mean I’ve got it all figured out. The photos and content you’ll see here represent my best efforts, but I Gary-tee that for every decent photo shared, there are at least 100 deleted ones.

I’m based in Hanwell, West London, and right now I’m mostly into bird photography and exploring the surrounding areas but who knows where Gary Goes will actually go? My interests might evolve over time, and so might this blog.
