I’ve now caught up with the processing from my recent trip to Fife – finishing off with images from my walk from Upper Largo (or Kirkton of Largo) down to Leven in the East Neuk of Fife. I got off the bus in Upper Largo to have a look at the fine old church, which […]
Last Week’s Shoot – Aberdeen
I’m nearly caught up with the processing from my recent trip to Scotland, so this is a shoot from last month rather than last week! I’d never been up to Aberdeen before but wanted to have a look round, so I’d booked an advance trip as it’s still a fair distance up from St Andrews […]
V&A Dundee at Dusk
I visited Dundee at dusk on my last trip to St Andrews two years ago and saw the construction work underway for the new V&A Dundee design museum on the waterfront as I crossed the Tay Bridge so on my recent return trip I was keen to get back and photograph the new building, which […]
Last Week’s Shoot – Leeds Dock
I had another trip into Leeds last week on a sunny afternoon, hoping for a nice dusk shoot at Leeds Dock and Royal Armouries. On the way from the railway station I couldn’t resist one or two shots on some of the city centre architecture, particularly the splendid Leeds City Markets building. This late Victorian/early […]
Harrogate in Summer
As it’s just a ten minute train ride from Knaresborough this was a very lazy shoot for me, but I thought I’d add a few summery shots around the centre of Harrogate – they may well come in handy for my 2020 calendar! One good thing about returning to the same subjects each year is […]
Last Week’s Shoot – York on a Sunny Spring Day
This shoot is actually from the week before last – you remember when it was briefly summer? – but it’s taken me until now to get all of the images processed up! I decided to use the sunny spring weather to freshen up my image collection of York… From the station I had a wander […]
Last Week’s Shoot – Snow!
Despite the wintry weather I managed to get out to take some local photographs four days in a row last week! I started on foot in Knaresborough with a few atmospheric images as the snow began to fall. On the snowiest morning, the main roads were still clear so I headed to Ripon (by bus […]
Last Week’s Shoot – The Piece Hall at Dusk
Last week I had a trip to Halifax to look at The Piece Hall – my first visit since the re-opening last year with the new courtyard. I arrived in the afternoon to a rather overcast sky, but the low winter sun kept breaking through to light up the building and the old church spire […]
Haworth at Dusk
I’ve not managed to get out with the camera that much so far this year with lots of jobs in the office to deal with, but I did have another trip to Haworth recently, as I’d wanted return to photograph the Main Street at dusk – and winter is a great time to do this […]
Last Week’s Shoot – Driffield and Hull
Having stayed over with friends in Driffield after a visit to the coast at Scarborough, I was planning to return via Hull for a third visit to look at the 2017 UK City of Culture. The weather forecast was a but iffy – mostly showers, but I was hoping for a decent dusk shoot nonetheless. […]
