Moonlit Beach Alnmouth Bay Northumberland
This serene scene was lit entirely by moonlight. As the tide recedes at Alnmouth Bay, the River Aln forms sinuous routes across the wet sand back to the sea. Moonlight reflects off the near wet pebbles and the distant sea to produce a very restful picture.

West Burton Falls, Yorkshire
These falls are located close to the village green of West Burton in Yorkshire. They are beautiful and tranquil, though not dramatic. I was attracted by the lace-effect of the water when captured with a slow shutter speed.

Low Light on Staithes
The beautiful fishing village of Staithes in North Yorkshire is popular with tourists. I was attracted by the patterns of the ropes and lobster pots against the dark hillside, relieved by white-painted cottages.

Whitby Abbey
This classic view of Whitby Abbey in North Yorkshire shows the Abbey at its best, reflected in the still waters of the lake and against a clear blue sky.

Whitby Harbour at Night
This photograph was taken in virtual darkness with an exposure of almost five minutes. The final light of the sun gives the sky a porcelain look and the long exposure has ensured a virtually flat surface to the sea.

Winter View, Curbar
Curbar Edge in Derbyshire overlooks Baslow and Curbar. High winds and heavy snow create wonderful snow sculpture leading the eye to the villages below.

Edale from Kinder
Kinder Scout in Derbyshire deserves its place in the history of British walking. On 24 April 1932, the Manchester area committee of the British Workers’ Sports Federation staged a mass trespass on Kinder Scout. Five of the trespassers were accused of “riotous assembly” and jailed for between two and six months.
