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 […]
The Twelve Apostles and Burley Moor
I thought it was a bit ironic as a Yorkshire photographer that I’ve been to and photographed the Twelve Apostles on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia but I’d never been to the Twelve Apostles stone circle on Burley Moor!

Last Week’s Shoot – Castle Hill, Huddersfield
I’ve been meaning to have a trip to Castle Hill for a while so on a rare (so far at least) sunny spring day last week I took the train over to Berry Brow station (a couple of stops down the Penistone Line from Huddersfield) and took the steep slog up the hill – it’s […]
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 […]

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 – Leeds Arcades
It’s been a while since I did any city photography in the centre of Leeds and a few things have changed so I decided to head back there with the trusty OM-D and update my collection. In the famous Victoria Quarter I wandered through the selection of lovely old arcades leading off either side of […]
Last Week’s Shoot – Goitstock Waterfall
The weather forecast for the middle of last week was for still days with flat grey skies which sounded very much to me like waterfall weather. So I decided to pay Goitstock Falls a visit for the first time. The waterfall is situated in Goitstock Wood near Cullingworth in West Yorkshire. I walked from Cullingworth […]
