This week, I took a few days out to spend some time walking in the Yorkshire Dales. I say I took some time out, but I always like to take a camera with me for some photography. You never know what great landscapes you will find as was the case with my first day near … Continue reading Photography in the Yorkshire Dales
As we’re still indoors I’m working through my huge archive of past images rather than shooting new material. Whilst it’s frustrating in one sense, it’s great in another. I’m spotting lots of images that I really like and I’m posting them to my Instagram page. Limestone pavement in the Yorkshire Dales near Malham. Today though, … Continue reading Yorkshire Dales in Black and White
I don’t know what the weather’s been recently for you, but here it’s been dreadful. I haven’t been out properly with a camera since the start of January. And I’m not holding out much hope for the next couple of weeks either. It’s only when I look back over my photo’s trying to find a … Continue reading Friday Image No. 167

Read closely enough and there are a couple of lessons in there. The first day was Friday and from the moment we arrived the … Continue reading The Secret to Great Landscape Photography
This is a quick note to say sorry to everyone waiting on a reply to email. I have been away for a Landscape shoot and without internet access. Normal service will resume shortly and here is one of the images from the shoot in the interim.
I love Friday’s. It’s the one time in the week when I feel that I can justify working on any image that I like in order to share it with people. I don’t need to care if it’s what people want, all that matters is that I like it. That’s an incredibly liberating feeling as … Continue reading Friday Image No.65
It’s another waterfall image this week I’m afraid. This is one of the falls at Keld in the Yorkshire Dales. The weather wasn’t too kind but it doesn’t usually matter when shooting waterfalls or forests. In fact I like the wet weather for this type of scene as it makes the foliage glow with colour. … Continue reading Friday Image No. 64
