I have been doing a fair bit of work in the White Peak it would seem recently and Peaseland Rocks was one of my latest locations. Peaseland Rocks is high above Wolfscote Dale where it meets Biggin Dale and the River Dove flows through it. Peaseland Rocks also looks directly up to Wolfscote Hill, which … Read more

Pilsbury Castle was a Norman Castle in the Peak District near the hamlet of Pilsbury, a few miles down the road from Longor and Hartington. It is situated next to the River Dove looking up to Chrome and Parkhouse Hill and Axe Edge with much of the White Peak Behind. It is also right on … Read more

Wolfscote Hill is a lovely little hill in the White Peak District near the village of Hartington. It is definitely one of the less frequented hills in the Peak District and have yet to meet a single soul on there.

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. There’s some really interesting spots including the kissing stones and the B-29 Superfortress and I have had some … Read more

Thought I’d pop a quick blog on from recent Peak District images. To be honest, the light in the recent months just hasn’t been that spectacular (or at least when I’ve been able to get out) and at times it can start to dent your enthusiasm. That said I’ve been out plenty, stood in many … Read more
