If I were you I'd ask that question of the right Bruce Little, 'cos the OP ain't me

Good midsummer morning from a peaceful Pinnacle Hill on the Malverns. Still don't have the place to myself but it'll be more peaceful than Midsummer Hill a mile or two to the south

We were there at about 12-1, over lunchtime.

No. We were in town to get the boys new shoes and nipped in afterwards. I've been an admirer of Ravillious for a while now. Just wish there was a large format book of his prints to buy.

Agree. Absolutely fantastic. Went there today. Some of the prints were goosebump worthy

After a somewhat testing week, to be out on #dartmoor in one of my favorite areas - Gidleigh Common - was food for the soul. The silence, the freshness, the #apricity. Here are a couple of handheld shots given the unsubtle B&W treatment from Rippator/Rival Tor

Thanks Malcolm. I have to admit I'm pleased with it. I normally struggle from there but the conditions definitely helped

I hope you can get back up them again. The route from British Camp car park to broad down is fairly good going on gentleish slopes

I grew up in their shadow but never really explored them until I left Worcestershire.

Cheers Lee. It was a lovely morning - crisp, refreshing and wonderful views all around.

Thanks very much. I love the Malverns in weather like this. No two mornings are the same.

I think I agree. There are very few, if any, dark blacks in the image (mainly in the very little amount of foreground bracken). As a result, the image is less contrasty than a lot of mine and I'm very happy with it

Its' one of my favourite views in the Malverns. I have to say I was very very happy with the conditions that morning.

Cheers David. In the composition preview window on my phone it had cropped it, but it's fine once posted.

I'm not sure how this platform handles panoramas but here is my final shot of the Malverns from Saturday's glorious early morning walk.

First big camera shot from this morning on the Malvern Hills. I was looking elsewhere and turned around to see the sun breaking the horizon. It would have been rude not to try this

A phone snap from a beautiful but challenging morning on the Malvern Hills. Packing up now to get some breakfast. Here's hoping the "big camera" photos are up to scratch.

To kick off my 2025 account here's a shot from a walk on Woodbury Common in East Devon on my last day off work. It was a lovely morning to be out in the frost and largely subtle light conditions. I couldn't help taking this though, which is somewhat less subtle.

I'm struggling in my "guess where that was taken from" game. Is there a military hut at Great Links? Looks like Amicombe Hill in the mid distance and Fur on the horizon

It was a great afternoon. Slightly torn TBH as we were there with my mum who loves the moor but can't walk very far at all now. I'd have loved to have gone up, say, Sheep's Tor or Kings Tor but couldn't. However the main reason was to take mum to the moor so mission accomplished in great conditions.

As someone who is a far better photographer than me often says, "the best camera is the one you have on you". Well, here are some phone snaps from #dartmoor this afternoon. Got above the murk and saw a weak #fogbow to boot.

Today is all about cooking prep for Christmas and a trip to Worcestershire and back to pick up mum. However, as sunrise is conveniently late and Woodbury Common is less than 10 minutes drive from home, I thought I'd nip up to one of my favourite trees for sunrise. #eastdevon #devon

It's the first day of the Christmas break for me and I fancied a coastal sunrise. It was a little muted and "meh" to be honest, or maybe my heart just wasn't in it. Anyway, after sun up, I went for a wander and found a new shot of the Budleigh trees.
