We made sure we had a full set of umbrellas for the workshop last weekend as the forecast was for showers in the afternoon, though this didn’t put us off as the predicted overcast skies and low wind looked like producing a great day for photography amongst…
Last Week’s Shoot – Nidd Gorge Woods
I had a walk into Nidd Gorge Woods near Knaresborough last week to catch a few of the bluebells while they were still in flower – I’m very lucky to have this lovely Woodland Trust woodland within walking distance of my house! On the way I wandered through Mackintosh Park to see how the wild […]
Bolton Abbey in Autumn
Originally posted on Natural Light Photography Workshops Blog:
We recently wrapped up out eighth year of landscape photography workshops with a great day out at Bolton Abbey (you can read about the day in Sam’s workshop report) so we thought it would be nice to celebrate with a few extra autumnal images of the priory…
Last Week’s Shoot – Guisecliff Wood
I’ve been to Guisecliff Wood quite a few times in autumn, but always seemed to arrive too late for the trees around the tarn, so I made a point of going in mid-October this year – and wasn’t disappointed! I’ve wandered along the river from Pateley Bridge to Glasshouses in the past and then up […]
Last Week’s Shoot – Shipley Glen
Following on from my recent Twelve Apostles and Burley Moor post, here’s another place that I really should have visited before, having been to nearby Saltaire on many occasions, but never quite got round to it… Shipley Glen lies just over the River Aire from Saltaire and to the West of Baildon. It’s an easy […]
Workshop Report – Ribblehead September 2018

The weather forecast had been changing quite a bit for the few days leading up to our annual trip to Ribblehead but by the time the morning came it looked like being a cloudy but fine day with some chance of sunny intervals in the late afternoon,…
The Twelve Apostles and Burley Moor
I thought it was a bit ironic as a Yorkshire photographer that I’ve been to and photographed the Twelve Apostles on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia but I’d never been to the Twelve Apostles stone circle on Burley Moor! So this summer, with the heather in bloom, I decided to go and have […]
Happy Birthday Emily!
In my Last Week’s Shoot – A Brontë Pilgrimage post last summer I talked about how reading Wuthering Heights had led me back to explore Haworth Moor again some time after my initial photo shoot there ten years ago (and I’ve been back a few times since) so I thought in honour of Emily Brontë’s 200th […]
A Bluebell Walk from Ripley
I wanted to try a new woodland for bluebell photography this year and, although I have walked through Hollybank Wood at Ripley (near Harrogate) before I’ve never photographed it, so I decided to combine this with a circular walk around Ripley taking in some other woodland too… I set off from the village following Hollybank […]
Last Week’s Shoot – Skipton Woods
This was actually a walk on my day off after our final workshop of the season at Bolton Abbey. The colours in Strid Wood had been fantastic during the workshop, so a look at nearby Skipton Castle Woods was in order – and as this was a day off I just grabbed the trusty little […]
