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

So I returned from the Isle Of Skye around 2 weeks ago now and those that follow me on other social networking sites will have seen me drip feeding some of my images through pretty much day by day. I didn’t want to write this blog until I had got most of the images out … 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

I’m recently back from a trip up to Scotland, a place I’d love to spend more time but with time constraints (takes up a good part of a day to get there!) and the rising price of fuel it’s somewhere I have to usually book a week in to go. Never the less, I try … Read more

It’s not often farmer boy James ventures out into the cities but last weekend I went down to London. I’ve been before but only with a point and shoot and after being taken back at night how much the place comes to life I decided I needed to go back. There were a few shots … Read more

Bentley Brook is the stream that courses it’s way through the valley and a series of waterfalls and cascades drop away. Derbyshire doesn’t have … Read more

The Wool packs are a clump of interesting gritstone formations high up on Kinder Scout, just west of Crowden Head. These gritstone formations have been formed over thousdands of years by being weathered by the rain and the water that flows through the groughs. The formations aren’t unique just to Kinder Scout but can be … Read more

I’ve got to admit – I’m sat here feeling a little sorry for myself. Checking the forecasts for this weekend suggested that yesterday afternoon was the best chance for sunset and today’s sun rise would be none existant. How wrong they got that! I don’t usually ever wake up at home when the sun is … Read more

So you may have noticed that the last few weeks has been slightly grey, damp, miserable and generally enough to make any photographer go stir crazy. It may seem like I haven’t been going out taking images but unfortunately I had…just you don’t get to see the images I take where nothing happens. In the … Read more

Well the weather here today is boring, thick overcast clouds and no wind to blow them on. With not a hint of light around I’m sat here bored wanting to go out with the camera but alas I decided I’d make use of my time and finally catch up with website updates I’ve either not … Read more
