"I love non-League and the extra access you can sometimes be blessed with. Bedfont FC welcomed me in with open arms. The first half hadn’t gone as they wanted and two of their players were simply trying to regain their composure before heading back out for the second half"

"I knew I wanted to capture this type of shot of The Den while the game was still going and also after dark, so I left with five minutes to go to set up my tripod and camera. I captured some of the Millwall fans leaving early and also missed the winning goal in the 96th minute"

"Queens Park Rangers were in a real relegation battle as the end of the season approached. On the day of Stanley Bowles' passing, they beat Rotherham 2-1 to move out of the bottom three. I was pleased to capture the celebration in front of the Stanley Bowles Stand at an atmospheric Loftus Road"

"I was delighted to come across former Lincoln City colossus Matt Rhead turning out for Kidsgrove Athletic and scoring the first goal in a surprise win. He may have lost some of his attributes, but was still able to display guile and subtlety to assist his team-mates to victory"

"I make it my mission to capture the little quirks and details. Here, a member of Fleetwood staff alights from the team bus with range of comestibles which he hopes will energise the players. I love the way it’s all openly on view, almost as if he’s showing it off to the world"

"These Crusaders supporters show determination and invention in equal measure before their Conference League tie away to Caernarfon Town in July. It proves the adage that there’s always more people willing to lend helpful advice rather than get directly involved in the hard work"

"Four seasons in one afternoon at Oxenhope Recreation v Ripon City. A sunny morning gave way to hail and torrential rain, before the sun returned for the final whistle. The ground is lit up by a shaft of sunlight as the rain gets heavier. Oxenhope won the game 7-5, having been 7-3 up at half time"

"Less than two years after contesting the Championship play-offs, Huddersfield were effectively relegated after this draw with Birmingham. I like the expression on her face. All hope is gone, it's over. I have no qualms about gatecrashing other people's misery, at least in a football sense"

"Newcastle was a happy city in the late May sunshine. I found this viewpoint with a patch of pavement illuminated against the silhouette of St James' Park. A couple of Lionesses fans walked past, one wearing head bopper things, which for a second or two were perfectly backlit"
