On Campervanning : Part 3
Part Three of my series of articles on Campervanning – focusing this time on planning for going around Europe for 6 weeks with our dog.
Another Year in Photo Books – Part 1
A bit like in last year's photobook review, when I said that I felt I hadn't bought that many, I felt the same this year. Then I piled all my photography books up when sitting down to look back over them during the Christmas holidays and thought "Oh...
Across this scarred land
With the end of 2018 nearly upon us (you're probably reading this in 2019), my thoughts turn to what I'd like to cover in my blog posts in the New Year. I'm writing this as a bit of an aide memoir to myself more than anyone else, as I know from my site...
Scaleber Force, Yorkshire Dales
Whilst on the way up to the Onlandscape landscape photography conference, I made the point of going a bit "cross country" in order to visit Scaleber Force which lies just out side of Settle on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. I think I must...
Borrowdale, Lake District
Having attended the Onlandscape : Meeting of Minds photography conference in early November on the edge of the Lake District, I took a couple of days off to explore the Lakes area, before heading over to the North York Moors to be a speaker at the...
The Deeper Love of X
I've said before that I own a wonderful Hasslebald X Pan panoramic film camera, but it seldom gets an outing. Though I have to say I am warming slowly but surely up to using it again - but definitely going down the route of getting someone else to do all the...
Early Autumn Explorations
I haven't been able to get out with the sole intent of "doing" photography for a good six months (probably more). I needed to get out and decompress - and I think I achieved that on Friday. Sat up on Curbar Edge in the Peak District looking down the...
Landscape Inspired
I'm speaking at "#Connected : Landscape Inspired", up at The Water Wheel Inn in Liverton Village in Cleveland, on the 10th of November. My talk is called "If this is your land, where are your stories?", taking inspiration from the book of the same title...
On Campervanning : Part 2
In my previous post, I discussed campervanning and in particular my first camper van “Diggy” the Mazda Bongo and “Vivi” the Vauxhall Vivaro, which came along last year to replace the aging and somewhat smaller (when your family is growing up) “Diggy”. ...
Barrea, Abruzzo, Italy
As I've written elsewhere, I have had a desire to visit Abruzzo in Italy to do landscape photography since reading Michael Kenna's "Abruzzo" book. The drive from Pompeii was surprisingly good, once we got clear of Naples. On rounding a bend approaching...
Higger Tor from Over Owler Tor in the Peak District
Despite living next door to the Peak District, it has been a good number of months since I was last able to be out in the Peaks taking photographs - the small matter of campervanning around Europe may have been a factor 🙂 So it was good to get up early...
Civitella Alfedena, Abruzzo, Italy
After an afternoon of electrical storms, as evening came you could start to see the other villages with light glinting off the rain damp streets around the valley near Barrea in Abrruzo. Taken from the other end of the valley above the village of Barrea. ...
