Used a 10 stop filter to create a long exposure to show movement at the National Trust reserve in Cambridgeshire.

Pulteney Bridge and Weir, Bath

Palladian Bridge

Palladian Bridge at Prior Park, a National trust property on the outskirts of Bath.

Pulteney Bridge and Weir, Bath

Taken at dusk, I had to balance my tripod on the wall, firing the shutter with a cable release whilst making sure I was ready to catch the camera if anything started to move as there is quite a drop down to the river.

Greensted Church, Ongar

Greensted church in Ongar, Essex, reputed to be the oldest wooden church in the world. Clouds were just right but had to use a 15 stop filter to create the movement as it was so still, hence a 13 minute exposure.

Portelet Bay, Jersey

Portelet Bay, Jersey. The small island can be reached at low tide & has a Martello tower built in 1808 & Janvrin's Tomb - a local seafarer who died of the plague in 1721 but was eventually interred at St Bredlade's.

Ribblehead Viaduct, Yorkshire

The famous Ribblehead Viaduct has twenty-four arches spanning the floor of the Pennines. The viaduct represents a short stretch of the 72 mile long Settle to Carlisle railway. Built between 1870 and 1875, the viaduct runs for some 440 yards above the valley floor.

Wasdale Head, Cumbria

Wasdale Head near Wastwater, Cumbria with dark clouds covering the hills but a shaft of sunlight lit up the valley.

Cologne Cathedral & Hohenzollern Bridge

This is the Koln Dom (Cologne Cathedral) at dusk. I had this shot in mind before we even left home and on our first day there we walked across the Hohenzollern bridge which is heaving under the weight of thousands of padlocks put there by couples to declare their love. I’d intended this evening as just a recce but the conditions were perfect & the cathedral floodlights came alight on cue so I decided no time like the present. I’d not brought the tripod out but conveniently there was a sturdy wall to place the camera on. The resulting shot required very little post production.

Corbiere Lighthouse, Jersey

This is Corbiere Lighthouse in Jersey. Conditions were spot-on; bright sunlight but thick fog drifting across the frame. This is a combination of two shots, a long exposure to blur the sea and another shorter exposure where the lighthouse was not completely obscured by fog.

Chianti Classico

Taken in the cellars of Badia a Coltibuono, producers of a very nice Chianti Classico in Tuscany. Desaturated & a little bit of noise removal but impressive for ISO 25600.

Mist over Loch Leven

From a trip to Glencoe in May, this view was from the main A road about ½ a mile from where we were staying! Driving along to another destination, I spotted the mist on the water and quickly pulled over. A walk down to the jetty of the local boat club provided the perfect viewpoint and a conversion to monochrome seemed to suit the conditions.

Stockholm Panorama

From a long weekend in Stockholm. This is a pano of 27 (!) handheld vertical RAW shots stitched together in Photoshop. Only took Photoshop about 3 mins to stitch together - pretty impressive. Full size file is 19143 x 6381 pixels & 60.4 MB

The Corpach Wreck

The Corpach Shipwreck, on the shores of Loch Linnhe, just outside of Fort William with Ben Nevis in the background. The wreck is actually the MV Dayspring and was built in 1975 to catch herring and mackerel. In 2000, it stopped its activity. Moored in the Fort William area, the boat was caught in a storm in December 2011 and the mooring holding the boat let go and it's been here ever since.

Castle Stalker

Sound Mirrors

Spectacular remnants of a dead-end technology, the concrete “listening ears” at Denge near Dungeness in Kent are the best known of the various early warning acoustic mirrors built along Britain’s coast.

Fairy Glen, River Conwy

Taken on a trip to North Wales . This was taken on one of those damp overcast days well suited to waterfall photography! It was a bit of a scamble down to the rocks but despite my less than agile frame, it was worth it. I tried several shutter speeds but this one gave just about the right amount of movement whilst retaining some detail in the flowing water.
