Not everyone is lucky enough to live in the Lake District or the Dales, or the numerous other stunning places in the UK. We can’t all take regular trips to fantastic places to photograph either. I can no longer drive as I’m visually impaired, and life’s too busy for my wife to be driving me all over the country. So, I’m exploring what’s on my doorstep.
Luckily for me I’m in a rural village and I have some protected moors and wetlands within walking distance, but even though I grew up here I’ve never taken time to explore them until this weekend. I decided to scout for potential photography locations on Sunday afternoon, and I’m really pleased with what I found. There’s an abundance of potential here which will change with each season. It was too windy and bright for any decent photos, but I still managed to take over 120. Of those, six looked like they could be edited into something half decent, of those only these survived…..
