Photohound
I have teamed up with Photohound to bring you the Peak District to their platform. I have curated over 100-spots which is used both on the Photohound website and their app. I have also written spots for Snowdonia and the Lake District to add to their worldwide portfolio of guides. If I am visiting an unknown area, I will use Photohound myself to help me find spots, saving the time and headaches searching multiple sources to find places, instead viewing well thought out and written spots with all the information you need to get you on your way.
PhotoHound is a photo location sharing platform. Their aim is simple: to share the world’s best photo spots and to connect with photographers who care about minimising the impact of their wanderings on this planet.
The PhotoHound website and app is for anyone who enjoys roaming the globe and photographing our beautiful surroundings. There are no ‘secret spots’, just shared photo spots for everyone to enjoy with one proviso; respect every location – meaning leave every place as you found it or even better if you can.
Whatever is shared by the PhotoHound community will always be freely available to all members; they will just endeavour to curate, tweak and add even more valuable photography stuff that makes life easier and your photography outings even more enjoyable.
