Peak District

Yes I know…blog after blog today but just catching up on the backlog. Here’s a few more recent images I wanted to share. The first one is from Stanton Moor. I had been up previously (and will go up a lot more as this is now my local stomping ground after moving to Matlock) and … Read more

Every now and again it’s nice to do a little photography that’s different from your normal style. It just keeps things a little fresh and allows you to break away from what you’re used to doing. For me, I really enjoy wire wool burning but at the same time I recognise that a lot of … Read more

After what seemed like a painful few months over summer with photography opportunities few and far and between with a lot of either clear skies or just cloud it is nice to finally be getting to Autumn with a change in weather, colours and hopefully being able to be a bit more productive. Of course, … Read more

I’ve been wanting to do a wild camp on Bleaklow for so long now. Most people question why, a baron flat place with not much to see or photograph but in my opinion that’s an unfair perception.

So time to catch up. It’s been a little while since I’ve blogged and nothing since my Skye photos (and I’ve yet got to do my night time shots blog). I seem to be getting busier as the days go on, with less time for stuff like blogging etc. However, I always manage to find … Read more

Last Sunday saw me out and about in the Peak District again aiming to capture a sunset at Shutlinsgloe. Shutlingsloe is in the Western Peaks and it’s distinct shape can be seen from miles around but will be a familiar sight to anyone who has drove along the Cat and Fiddle. Shutlingsloe has a nickname … Read more

Hasn’t the weather been nice recently for the most part? It may have been a little hazy for sure but it’s been better than the countless days of grey recently. Last Saturday saw me looking to go out, wanting to make the most of it. While I’m not a blue skies photographer sometimes you take what … Read more

So, continuing on from my last post I’ve been doing some more wire wool burning. Last Wednesday, I had been out intending to shoot star trails with a forecast of clear skies but upon arriving at location it was apparent there was too much cloud to attempt. So, it’s now nice to have a back … Read more
