Guard of Honour
Guard of Honour

Autumn colours from the ground at Bole Hill Quarry near Hathersage. This place has seen many changes and shows them all off through it's own display of beauty.

Shadow Woods
Shadow Woods

The closest I have been to a mystical magical world. I feel I could have stepped further and been taken away forever into another time & place.

Winnats Pass
Winnats Pass

Winnats Pass typically marks the end of any cloud inversion in the Hope Valley. The steep sides of the collapsed cave hold back the tide of the mist, locking it deep in the valley below.

The Northern Lights
The Northern Lights

Always go back. No place deserves to be overlooked based on a single visit. The first time I ventured here the wind was knocking folk over and the rain poured down. Next time around it was beautiful clear skies with snow on the ground. A third time and the sky came alive.

Chulu

A local guide rides along the Annapurna Trekking Circuit with the backdrop of Chulu behind.

Mountain of the Mind
Mountain of the Mind

Buachaille Etive Mor, the mountain which the mind imagines. This mountain consumes your thoughts as you drive along the road towards Glencoe. The morning started with unbearable wind and rain. After a couple of attempts to leave the car and being blown back in we decided to sit it out a while in the car. After an hour or so the weather broke just enough to be able to see changes in the light.

The Arts Tower, Sheffield
The Arts Tower, Sheffield

The Arts Tower is one of Sheffield's most iconic buildings and can be seen from most areas of the city. Part of the University complex it's a building which has dominated my memory of Sheffield. From time spent studying nearby or within the building itself, to time spent sitting in traffic peering up at it from afar.

Glen Coe will always take your breath away. In the sun, rain, mist or snow you can't help but stare in awe at the domainting landscape above your head.

Theatre of Imagination

Few landscapes create such intense atmosphere and intrigue as the woodland around the old quarry of Bole Hill.

Edge of The Pass

The winding road meanders through the deep limestone gorge of Winnats Pass and disappears into the mist.

A moment of opportunity as the flocking geese take flight in a white out close to home.

Woodland at Bole Hill Quarry draped in cobwebs and mist. I don't even know how to begin to try and translate this scene into words that convey it's atmosphere.

Worlds Apart

To comprehend some of the space beyond your own world or to understand your garden completely.

The Dragon's Back

Parkhouse Hill bathed in morning sunlight during winter. This landscape was once drowned as an atoll and now dominates everything around it.

Morning Above The Clouds
Morning Above The Clouds

A sheep awakens from rest above the cloud inversion in the Hope Valley during a beautiful autumnal sunrise. An image which brings a sense of familar calm.

The Road To Glen Etive
The Road To Glen Etive

The road to somewhere filled with all the dramatic landscapes that makes Scotland the wonder that it is.

Flames

Autumn trees set fire to the cold waters of Ladybower. Taken on a still and quiet October morning as the light mist left the water's surface. The water had a layer of algae which was distrupted only by the passing ducks. Until creating this photograph I had been to Ladybower many times and found it difficult to create a photograph which felt original or matching my sense of this place as a calm but functional landscape.

The Valley of Fire
The Valley of Fire

Deep into the valley of Glencoe Two of the Three Sisters keep a watchful eye over us mortal creatures from above the mist. The day had been submerged in a light rain until the afternoon when the mist began to clear as if being pulled apart by the surrounding hills.

Winter's Dust
Winter's Dust

A distant flailing tree in the Nottinghamshire Countryside among the frost covered crops. I grew up near here while this tree was growing unnoticed for 31 years or more

A beautiful February morning among the grassland and woodland near Hathersage.

Scarred Landscape
Scarred Landscape

Sunflare as the setting sun descends behind Chrome Hill and illuminates it's characteristic spine. A closer look revelas the work tracks of walkers and sheep, like stitches in the landscape. Everytime I imagine this place, I imagine it's past life as a reef atol beneath the ocean with aquatic life and not farm life.

Aldeyjarfoss
Aldeyjarfoss

Aldeyjarfoss from above. The beauty of this waterfall is beond imagination. The perfectly carved pool, the narrow spout and incredible rock formations make it a special place.

Time after time Pevril Castle enjoys basking in the autumn sun. and sitting pretty above the cloud inversion, Castleton, Derbyshire.

Sunlight breaks through the birch woods of Bole Hill Quarry and illuminates patches of the bracken covered ground. In 2018 I limited opportunity to enjoy the colours of the English autumn due to travel. This being a rate moment in the woods.

Snow Globe
Snow Globe

A day transported inside winter's snow globe. Soft snow falls around the hill of the southern Peak District. Strangely it felt warm and comfortable in these conditions with great company and plenty to enjoy.

Cat Bells
Cat Bells

The lakeland location which always sticks in my mind is Catbells. Be it the view from across Derwent Water and it's familiar friendly outline or the view up to it's main summit from the path along it's ridge. I first came here in around 1989 I guess so it's no wonder my bond to it is a strong as the rocks it is made of.

Reflections

A reflecting tree along the River Trent at Fiskerton, Nottinghamshire. How does it sit so still and yet with so much motion simply trying to make it's way through the winter.

Deep Blue Mountains
Deep Blue Mountains

An aerial perspective on the cold beauty of Jökulsárlón Ice Lagoon in Iceland. The patterns in the distant mountain align to the texture of the grit lines in the ice. The ice takes the form of small mountains concealed below the deep blue waters. A magical winter land which proves our imagination exists somewhere.

Orientation

Hodge Close Quarry in the Lake District near to Tarn Hows and Holme Fell. This scene reminded me of Chinese artwork and bonsai. Taken on my first visit to this eery spot in the Lake District. The light mist created a calm atmosphere as the depth of the quarry felt as though it was sucking you down from the edge.
