Last week’s shoot was actually a break in the journey back from Bath where I’d been to a friend’s 50th birthday party. There’s a lot of great architecture in the city centre and with just four hours I was scratching the surface really, so I had to be quite selective – and it was mainly […]
One of my favourite viewpoints in the Yorkshire Dales is just above Gordale Scar in Malhamdale which I’m lucky enough to visit every time we run a Natural Light Photography Workshop at Malham. It’s a steep climb up from the valley floor below, but the view down into Gordale Scar (featured image) is just spectacular. […]
I try to pay a visit to Middleton Woods every spring to marvel at what is always a great display of bluebells, but with concentrating on other woodland this spring I didn’t have a day with suitable weather available until the end of the month and after a period of heavy rain so I thought […]
Last week’s shoot was a shoot with a difference as I actually had the day off and had arranged to meet a good friend outside The Crucible in Sheffield to go to a session of snooker at the World Snooker Championships. I took the little Olympus OM-D E-M10 along just in case as Kate had […]
As the nights are drawing out a bit I picked York for a recent dusk shoot, as it’s only half an hour from Knaresborough by train so I could do the shoot and still get back at a reasonable time! I picked Exhibition Square as my location for dusk, as I’ve only done it once […]
During my recent trip to St Andrews I had my first visit to the nearby Tentsmuir Forest, which is an easy walk from Tayport on the northern Fife coast so I combined exploring the forest with a dusk shoot at Tayport harbour. I picked an afternoon with the most overcast and still weather forecast of […]
On my recent St Andrews shoot the most promising forecast for a decent sunrise shoot was (unfortunately) on the Sunday morning, so I was up at 5am to brave the hour’s walk along the Fife Coastal Path to the Rock and Spindle, which I’d seen during the day and at dusk before and thought it […]
This was my third visit to St Monans, one of the lovely fishing villages along the Fife coast, but my first opportunity to photograph the zig-zag breakwater from the harbour, which was the main reason for my return. I was spending a few days based in St Andrews and took a trip down to the […]
Having had a look at the fine modern bridge in Castleford the week before, I decided to head out that way again last week, just a little further downstream on the River Aire, to have a look at the famous Ferrybridge Power Station, particularly as it’s due to close soon. I took the train to […]
The recent crisp wintry days have been great for a bit of “blue hour” urban photography so last week I thought I’d have a look at the amazing modern footbridge over the River Aire at Castleford. I arrived mid afternoon with the bright winter sun already low in the sky and had a look at […]
