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
Hi all, Back in the winter, I created my Peak District Webcams Page which was created as a useful tool to view webcams before setting out to see current weather, light and even snow conditions and has proved a popular page receiving a lot of hits daily. It was always available to view on the … Read more
Been a while since I’ve been able to blog due to being super busy. Anyway here’s a catch up blog from my Snowdon Wild camp I did on the 8th/9th June (time flies). I had wanted to wild camp up Snowdon for some time now, years in fact. A mountain over 1000m high, with great … 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
Repost of Lake District Photography from April 2012 – Old version removed Just a few images I took while staying an extra couple of days in the Lake District after wild camping. Perfect weather and great conditions in a sense. There were unbroken reflections all around, which I love but a persistent haze was hard to work … Read more
