Ah, Friday evening is finally here & a warm fire with a glass of red wine 😊🍷

A textured crystal goblet filled with a dark amber liquid sits on a table in the foreground. The glass features a prominent diamond-cut pattern that catches the warm ambient light. In the softly blurred background, a stack of books rests to the left, while a wood-burning stove glows with a vibrant orange fire, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

Another from my Kingdom of the East Angles film project: Shingle Backwash, Dunwich, Suffolk, 2026 www.hawkins-weeks.com/portfolio/ki... #photography #BlackAndWhite #film #BelieveInFilm #holga #landscape #ECK

A high-angle, black and white square photograph captures ocean water washing over a pebble beach. The scene is divided into distinct textures and tones, starting with the smooth, light gray surface of the incoming tide at the top. In the middle section, turbulent, foamy white water swirls around tightly packed stones as the wave recedes, while the bottom section is dominated by dark, wet pebbles fading into deep shadow. The image features a strong vignette effect with heavily blurred, darkened edges and a pronounced film grain that creates a moody, lo-fi aesthetic.

Another one from my Kingdom of the East Angles film project using a Holga camera: Crumbling Headstone, Bungay, 2026 www.hawkins-weeks.com/portfolio/ki... #photography #BlackAndWhite #film #BelieveInFilm #holga #graveyard #ECK

A black and white photograph of a weathered, historic stone headstone standing in an overgrown churchyard. The arched gravestone features an ornamental carving at the top and is clearly inscribed with the name 'JAMES CLAMP', though the lower section is cracked and damaged. Tall, wild grasses dominate the foreground and surround the monument, while mature trees and the silhouette of a church building are visible in the blurred background.

This was the beautiful view back towards our village on Saturday’s evening walk #photography #landscape

A grassy farm track cuts centrally through a harvested, golden stubble field under a soft blue sky with scattered white clouds.
The vibrant green track leads the eye from the foreground toward a distant line of lush trees and a green hedge. The right side of the track shows dense, straw-colored crop stubble, while the left side features a lighter, smoother field texture. Long shadows stretch diagonally across the grassy path, suggesting the low light of early morning or late afternoon.

Our cat, Lemon, chilling out after a busy night hunting mice #photography #caturday

An orange tabby cat lying comfortably on a textured rug. The cat's head is tilted sideways against the floor, looking directly forward with a relaxed, half-lidded expression. Sunlight gently highlights its short ginger fur, distinct tabby facial markings, pink nose, and long white whiskers. The background consists of a soft, woven neutral-colored carpet with a slight vignette effect around the edges.

More from my Holga film project Kingdom of the East Angles: Lackford Lakes, Suffolk, 2026 www.hawkins-weeks.com/portfolio/ki... #photography #film #BelieveInFilm #holga #BlackAndWhite #landscape #ECK

This black and white photograph captures a serene and deeply atmospheric lake landscape. In the centre, a bare, thin tree branch sticks out of the calm water, creating a clear, dark reflection that mirrors its intricate, twiggy shape. The stillness of the lake creates a flawless, glassy mirror effect, forming a nearly symmetrical silhouette against the water.
In the background, a soft, out-of-focus treeline traces the horizon under an overcast sky. The image features a strong, artistic vignette with heavily darkened corners and a grainy texture reminiscent of classic analogue film. The high contrast between the deep blacks of the wood and the muted greys of the water evokes a moody, quiet, and contemplative atmosphere.

An old, weathered wooden groyne stretches out from the shingle beach into a churning, frothing sea. The black and white, square-crop photograph has a textured, grainy finish with a heavy vignette around the edges. The tide is coming in, with white foam washing up onto the dark pebbles in the foreground, while waves crash against the distant end of the wooden sea defence barrier.

A black and white, square-crop photograph captures waves crashing onto a dark, pebbly shoreline under a heavy, overcast sky. The image has a grainy texture, with prominent dark circular spots scattered across the upper portion, resembling a vintage pinhole camera effect or film defects. The shoreline extends from the bottom left corner diagonally towards the distant upper right, where the land meets the horizon line. White foam from a receding wave dominates the lower right foreground, its edge cutting sharply against the dark pebbles. The sea stretches out to the right, showing slight texture from waves further out.

A black and white, square photograph captured with a toy camera effect, showing a pebbly beach coastline in the UK.In the foreground, smooth, dark, rounded pebbles and stones of various sizes are scattered across the wet sand. The shoreline curves gently from the bottom left toward the right background, where a soft, rolling wave breaks with white foam onto the shore. Further out in the water, a long row of wooden groynes extends into the sea, stretching into the distance.

Just sitting in the sun enjoying a leisurely Sunday morning #coffee ☕️😊

A close-up photograph shows a small espresso cup containing dark coffee with a golden crema, sitting on a weathered wooden surface in the foreground. The white ceramic cup has a red rim and features the vintage slogan "Lovely day for a GUINNESS" with an illustration of a toucan balancing a pint on its beak. Behind the coffee cup, a large, light blue glazed ceramic jug is filled with a dense cluster of small green plants boasting vibrant pink and red daisy-like flowers. The background is softly blurred with warm, natural sunlight casting gentle shadows across the scene.

On the return ferry from Belfast to Liverpool having settled our son in halls for the 1st year at uni. Quite emotional & really great all at the same time!

A wide-angle, eye-level shot from a ferry deck, looking out over a calm, dark sea under a heavy, overcast grey sky. In the foreground, the curved bow of the white ferry is visible on the bottom left, showing grey metal deck detailing and yellow bollards. The dark, glassy water reflects the moody clouds above, stretching out to a soft horizon. Faint, dark landmasses appear on the far left and right edges of the horizon line.

The confessional box dates to 1576 when Cardinal Charles Borromeo built the 1st wooden spaces to stop physical contact between confessor & penitent, ironically the box has a darker history allowing the reverse to happen: The Dark Boxes #photography #BlackAndWhite #confessional #religion #catholicism

Four black and white photographs arranged in a two-by-two grid show details of ornate wooden confessional booths inside a church.
Top-left panel: A full view of a dark wooden confessional structure with three arched sections. The central door features a small grated window, while the side compartments are flanked by arched entryways.
Top-right panel: A close-up, high-contrast shot focusing on a heavy fabric curtain partially obscuring an opening next to a detailed wooden carving of a robed figure.
Bottom-left panel: An interior view of a confessional compartment flanked by two intricately carved wooden statues of angels with folded hands. A large white candle on a metal stand is visible on the right.
Bottom-right panel: Another full view of a three-part wooden confessional box, showcasing decorative arched entryways on either side of a central panelled door with a curtained window.

Trying a new roast of #coffee bean today from Japanese roasters, Ueshima… a strong dark, chocolate & nutty roast ☕️😋

A bag of Ueshima Fuji Mountain whole coffee beans stands upright on a kitchen worktop next to an espresso machine. The white packaging features bold black text reading "UESHIMA COFFEE BEANS" and "JAPAN'S No.1 COFFEE", along with a "5/5 ROAST" indicator. A striking black brushstroke graphic with a bright red circle, resembling a rising sun, dominates the lower half of the bag. In the background, a wooden-handled coffee tamper sits on a black tamping mat alongside a portafilter.

In amongst a busy schedule, I did manage to get one rough sketch done whilst in Belgium last week: Gable front, Sint-Lievenspoortstraat, Ghent, 2026 #art #drawing #ink #ECK

An ink pen drawing in a sketchbook depicts a narrow, traditional Belgian building facade with a prominent stepped gable.The architectural sketch is drawn on textured cream paper using black ink, showing cross-hatching for shadows and textures. The building features three vertical rows of windows and doors, with arched stone lintels over the upper windows and decorative arches above the ground floor openings. At the top of the page, handwritten cursive script notes: "Gable front. Sint-Lievenspoortstraat. Ghent July 2026".

Got to think a lot about René Magritte, following a visit to the Musée Magritte, Bruxelles. I love the playfulness, the juxtaposition of anonymity & the surreal, especially in the bowler hat paintings #art #painting

An open sketchbook with leather casing rests on a wooden surface, displaying postcards and handwritten notes about Belgian surrealist painter René Magritte.The left page features a postcard of Magritte’s painting The Labors of Alexander, depicting the Leaning Tower of Pisa propped up by a giant silver spoon under a blue sky. Handwritten notes curve around the image and line the bottom of the page.The right page holds a postcard of The Son of Man, showing a man in a dark overcoat and bowler hat with his face obscured by a floating green apple against a cloudy sky and sea backdrop. Additional cursive handwriting fills the space above and below the postcard.
