Formerly an ecologist and botanist. Now mostly a photographer. I have terminal prostate cancer, but living, not dying. And life is good.

Why are you not able to offer payment? Can I advertise for FREE in your paper? I’ve worked in Fleet Street for 30 years & this is very unprofessional & offensive to photojournalists. It’s time this practice of getting free content for a commercial enterprise ended. PLS RETWEET. https://t.co/VyLECBpjjS

After having written many best selling books, and somewhat priding myself on my ability to write, it should be noted that the Fake News constantly likes to pore over my tweets looking for a mistake. I capitalize certain words only for emphasis, not b/c they should be capitalized!

I've just caught up with this. It is very, very good. If you haven't yet watched it, I urge you to do so, and stay with it till the end. We are in danger of sleepwalking into losing our NHS https://t.co/yqpeJ9cHEh @hfdaniel ?.

@NiallMcDiarmid Wonderful light. Absolutely gorgeous overall!

[Alan Hale @alanhalephoto]

@hfdaniel @BBCOne I will watch it Hannah. I was amazed, when I was in hospital over winter, how staff managed to stay cheerful, and treat you like a human being, even towards the end of a hectic 12-hour shift. (I had a bad day yesterday, barely able to move with pain, but a bit better today) xxx

[Alan Hale @alanhalephoto]

Totally agree. https://t.co/rz4UQ4sZSQ

@saraPjones Thanks Sara that's very kind of you to think of me. I will investigate! X

Dear Brexiters.
When Brexit leaders talk about 'deregulating' - they are talking about getting rid of rights such as sick pay, maternity rights, safety regulations etc.
And when @LiamFox talks about 'the Labour Market' - he's referring to you.
Regards,
Tom

Calling all MPs: a third runway at #Heathrow cannot be reconciled with the UK's targets on either #climatechange or air pollution. Please vote against it, as a matter of conscience.
Calling all non-MPs: please RT this and press your representative to vote No

In a leap of faith, I've just booked my ticket for the EYE Photography Festival in October. https://t.co/nAS2hKOtsl via @Aberystwytharts

[Alan Hale @alanhalephoto]

@aderixon Must watch it - sounds right up my street!

[Alan Hale @alanhalephoto]

@ElganHearn_CT It's not like there aren't Welsh speakers in Wales.

[Alan Hale @alanhalephoto]

@GeorgeMonbiot I've learnt to live with mine. At least one doesn't have to get up in the middle of the night for a piss.

@FfotonWales @martinparrfdn @MagnumPhotos Wish I could be there

[Graham Simpson @grahambsi]

This is a shameless lie. The money for the NHS will come from tax rises and more borrowing. There is no ‘Brexit Bonus’. The Bank of England confirms that British families are already £900 worse off because of Brexit. Please challenge this lie today.

[Alan Hale @alanhalephoto]

@edbrydon Same thing here. I just keep my head under the duvet :)

[Alan Hale @alanhalephoto]

@MarkWalters_ Thanks Mark. Yes, I've dipped in and out of B& W over the last few years, and in the 1970s I worked entirely in B&W, doing my own dev and printing. Horses for courses - I have no strong preference.

My latest photo book "Monochrome Aberystwyth is hot off the press. You can buy one directly from me for £10 + £2 p&p. Or, if you live in Aberystwyth Lizzie Spikes "Driftwood Designs" shop will have copies in stock later this week: https://t.co/GekW4M1xGz
