Knaresborough Jigsaw Crowdfunder!

This is just a very short post to let you know about my Knaresborough Viaduct at Sunset jigsaw crowdfunder project! I’m looking to produce a 1000 piece jigsaw of the viaduct image above and need to raise funds to cover the upfront production costs, so I’ve created an “all or nothing” crowdfunder with a minimum […]

New Greetings Card Packs!

Social media has been a vital way of keeping in touch with family and friends during the lockdown, but there’s always something special about receiving a nice card in the post and with that in mind I’ve created some special packs of my greetings cards so that you can send a little bit of Yorkshire […]

Royal Armouries Museum Leeds

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 […]

Calendars for Christmas!

This is just a quick reminder that my range of local calendars is still available for purchase online, making ideal Christmas gifts! I have all six designs in stock at the moment but Knaresborough, Harrogate and Boroughbridge are running low, so please order soon to avoid disappointment. Ripon, Nidderdale and Yorkshire designs complete the 2019 […]

Bolton Abbey in Autumn

A few recent images from Bolton Abbey posted on the Natural Light Photography Workshops blog – as we’ve just wrapped up our eighth year of workshops there with some lovely autumn colour! There are more workshop posts on the Natural Light Photography Workshops Blog and full details of the 2019 season of workshops on the […]

Last Week’s Shoot – Guisecliff Wood

I’ve been to Guisecliff Wood quite a few times in autumn, but always seemed to arrive too late for the trees around the tarn, so I made a point of going in mid-October this year – and wasn’t disappointed! I’ve wandered along the river from Pateley Bridge to Glasshouses in the past and then up […]

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!  So this summer, with the heather in bloom, I decided to go and have […]

Happy Yorkshire Day!

To celebrate Yorkshire Day today here are just a few images from my favourite shoots so far this year.  The featured image above is Haworth at dusk – as it’s just two days since Emily Brontë’s 200th birthday!  I’ve also picked a dusk shot from the renovated Piece Hall at Halifax, Leeds Town Hall from […]

On Haworth Moor at Top Withins

Happy Birthday Emily!

In my Last Week’s Shoot – A Brontë Pilgrimage post last summer I talked about how reading Wuthering Heights had led me back to explore Haworth Moor again some time after my initial photo shoot there ten years ago (and I’ve been back a few times since) so I thought in honour of Emily Brontë’s 200th […]

A Bluebell Walk from Ripley

I wanted to try a new woodland for bluebell photography this year and, although I have walked through Hollybank Wood at Ripley (near Harrogate) before I’ve never photographed it, so I decided to combine this with a circular walk around Ripley taking in some other woodland too… I set off from the village following Hollybank […]
