We stumbled on this building in Belfast a couple of days back. A long time empty, it had once been a school but was now open to the elements as the roof was gone. You`d think at this point, there would be a few signs and fences to deter entry but nope, straight in and then pretty quickly out again, as the floor was going the same way as the roof.
Dorset on a Tuesday
There has to be some fringe benefits to being a freelance photographer and this may be the best I can think of. A mid week trip to Dorset for sunrise and sunset.
Durdle Door, Dorset
Swyre Head, Dorset
Brothers
Portraits of the brothers. It`s been a while since I could get them to sit still long enough to get some pictures but warm weather, the promise of a fiver and some donuts bought me five minutes.
North East Coast
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.
