#202 Along the canal, Birmingham, 18/01/2019

I love walking the canals not only in the countryside but also in towns and cities, something about being one step removed from the building seems to make it more interesting, or maybe that's just me!

#201 Simplicity, Ellesmere, 12/05/2020

Sometimes a tree and some sky can be enough.

#200 Porous, Ellesmere, 22/10/2024

For #200 in my "Endless project" I have gone for a scene from Autumn last year. It was a strange morning as it was cloudy and grey until about 10 minutes before I took this photo.

#199 The Wreck, Fort William, 03/01/2015

This old wreck has been on the shore of Loch Linnhe for years now slowly looking more and more decrepit. It does provide some foreground interest though. Ben Nevis is to the left.

#198 Calle los Baños Alto, Panticoas 22/06/2025

We came back into Panticosa after a walk up into the mountains and this scene just jumped out at me. I rushed into the yard to take a photo quickly just in case someone appeared.

#197, Still Life, Ellesmere, 17/06/2022

Sometimes the canal boats that visit our town become quite interesting backdrops.

#196 Record Breaker, Swanscombe, Kent 17/02/2023

We were in the area a few years ago and it would have been rude not to pop along the Thames to see the tallest pylon in the UK at 190m which is just taller than the BT tower in London.

#195 Sandy Lane Sunset, Ellesmere, 22/02/2022

The pools and ponds and sometimes small lakes that appear around Ellesmere after rain and particularly over the winter provide some ephemeral chances to get some differently angled sunset photos.

#194 Ruta del Cares, Asturias, Spain 08/07/2024

One of "the" walks to do in Spain. The path is hewn out of the rock with huge drops below in some places, as you get closer to Cain the gorge gets even narrower and there are tunnels and bridges crisscrossing the drop.

#193 Cape Wrath, Sutherland, Scotland, 06/07/2021

It's an epic journey to reach the most NW point of mainland Britain. A ferry across the Kyle of Durness followed by an hours drive in a minibus. When you get here though the emptiness and quiet is palpable.

#191 Arkle, Sutherland, 02/07/2021

The imposing lump that is Arkle appears as you near Laxford Bridge cutting across from Lairg. At 787m it's not a Munro but still an imposing presence.

#190 Reaching, Ellesmere 12/08/2024

The barley looks ready to fly free at this time of the year.

#189 Helmet, Birmingham New Street, 28/08/2016

Birmingham New Street station is great since its big glow up a decade ago, lots of possibilities for interesting abstracts.

Autumn tones on a calm and sunny day at Blakemere.

Afternoon shadows at Eastbourne redoubt.

#186 Kylesku Bridge, Scotland, 04/04/2019

Probably the most photographed bridge in the Highlands.

#185 Radar Love, Brown Clee, Shropshire 14/02/2023

We were sitting on Clee Burf on this particular day when suddenly the mist cleared in front of us and the summit of Titterstone Clee appeared briefly before being swallowed up again. It was a rather eerie sight.

#184 Lisbon Confusion, 14/11/2018

Reflections, curves and colours.

#182 Autumn Light Explosion, Ellesmere, 19/11/2020

I was on a local walk late in the day and out of nowhere came this intense light, lighting up the bracken and exacerbating the Autumn colours

181, Spurn Point Low Light, East Yorkshire, 06/08/2019

Spurn point is narrow spit of sand and shingle by the mouth of the Humber. This lighthouse was built in 1852 but within 40 years was deemed surplus to requirements and was converted to a water tank, how ignominious.

#180 Container, Kinlochbervie. Scotland 05/04/2019

This old container just had to be photographed so I scrambled into a field to do so, I wanted to capture the juxtaposition of it and the church in the same frame. Kinlochbervie has a real "edgeland" feel to it.

#179 Snowy Canal. Ellesmere, 12/12/2017

A crisp winter sunrise along the canal from a few years ago. I think the main line of the canal was frozen in parts so it must have been cold as the current normally stops it from freezing.

#178 Ragleth, Shropshire 03/10/2023

It's probably the quietest of the Shropshire hills around Church Stretton but it's often full of drama. We had climbed up from the town just to get doused by a sharp shower as we crested the top.

#177 Llyn Cwmorthin, Blaenau Ffestiniog, Wales 30/08/2024

Up above Tanygrisau below the Moelwyn is this fabulous landscape haunted by the reminders of the slate industry. Some people dislike it but I find it fascinating to explore and photograph.

#176 Brighton Pier, 19/12/2017

I took around 400 photos of this marvellous sunset in 2017 and now and again I like to dip into the unprocessed files to process another one. I seem to remember this one was taken on my tiny tripod which is about an inch tall.

#175 Misty Morning, Ruyton X1 Towns, 18/10/2022

One of those days where the sun poking through the mist forces you to stop and take photos straight away.

#174 Kinder Scout from Mam Tor, Derbyshire, 04/11/2021

From the days when Mam Tor was just busy not mobbed!

#173 Shelter, La Manga, Murcia, Spain, 27/07/2015

There is an intriguing arm of land to the East of Cartegena called La Manga ("sleeve" in translation) that I had always wanted to visit. When we did we found a fascinating 10 mile strip of "edgeland".
