With this being February, I was hoping for three foot drifts of snow, stormy mornings and howling winds but it wasn`t to be. Peace and calm with the odd shower reigned. Next time……
Dunstanburgh Castle
Blyth Pier
Blue River Thames
Just before sunrise on a clear morning in December, and the Thames is steel grey.
Leaden Skies
Maybe it`s London, maybe it`s everywhere but dank, grey skies can follow you around in November. That said, looking up to the heavens in the last few weeks, Hackney seems to have been blessed if only for 15 minutes or so.
Abandoned Car
Hardknott Pass is a minor road in The Lake District to the East of Ambleside and not for the faint hearted. Twenty five minutes in first and second gear with 30% inclines and descents can take it`s toll.
I guess it all got too much for this driver.
Morning
Just sometimes it`s worth answering the call of the alarm clock and and making the effort. Anyone who says getting up at an unmentionable hour is the fun bit is sadly mistaken but with no pain, there is no gain.
Skye Panoramics
A week away in the Isle of Skye usually blows away the cobwebs and is an antidote to city living. These pictures are a three frame stitch to produce a panoramic format without sacrificing quality.
Dawn at the Coast
Daybreak on the South Coast, yet more wind and rain.
IPA Awards 2013
A late post, an Honourable Mention in the International Photography Awards 2012. Glen Brittle, Isle of Skye
Lighthouse
Lighthouse on the North East coast. I`m starting to think I need to broaden my colour palette but you get what you`re given in March.
