I don’t really like gardening, though I can appreciate a nice garden…. So I’m not sure what it is that always draws me to photograph glasshouses… hey ho. #gardening #notgardening #fujfilm

‘Horseshit’: I gave my verdict to Sky News on the Great Dartmoor Pony Cull Conspiracy of 2026 - a conspiracy theory grounded in nonsense, that’s festered on Musk’s hellsite & been supercharged today by the Tories - to distract from the fact nature on Dartmoor is dying: news.sky.com/story/horseh...

Somewhat ironic to post a rainy window photo of Dartmoor just after a heatwave, but let's go with it #ricoh #dartmoor #badweather #nationalpark

Just returned home from a trip to the Cairngorms National Park. I know the West Coast of Scotland so much more, so it was great to explore a 'new' place. The biodiversity on show in the area we visited was incredible. Plenty of photos to share soon #cairngorms #photography #scotland

Mollinia, a grass that causes problems all over Dartmoor, smothering pretty much everything else. Yet it still has some hidden beauty when you examine it up close. #dartmoor #environment #photography

Some experimentation from 2025…. I’ve not done much intentional camera movement before. I think landscape photography can be ‘too perfect’ at times, so letting go was really liberating. More coming in 2026! #intentionalcameramovement #icm #cornwall #photography

I don’t think I’ll ever tire of the colours of Dartmoor in a summer’s sunset #dartmoor #devon #sunset #photography

Sunset on Dartmoor National park. Sidelit rocky outcrops with golden light. A small path leads through grasses, past some grazing sheep up to a distant tor.

I don’t think I’ll ever grow tired of watching water. This stuff is beautiful, the patterns and textures it created, and the way they reflect light and create shadow. #water #patterns. #nature #photography #coniston

Patterns of rippled water with one single sprig of leaves floating in the centre of the image

Rippled water with light reflecting and darker shadowy areas creating contract and variation

Gentle ripples, with smooth, rounded peaks and troughs, resulting in gently diffused light

The photo that changed everything. Since then I’ve not cropped, straightened, or edited in any way. I’ve learnt a lot in the intervening 7 years about how to evolve the craft of images made in camera, but it stated here #dartmoor #cottongrass #madeincamera #landscape #photography #nature

I’ve been working with Moor Trees to capture the great work they do to create woodland on Dartmoor. My images have been used to in new engagement materials, displays and feature in their impact report. They were on show on Friday at their 25th anniversary party #moortrees #forest #trees #devon

Some of the most intense morning light I have witnessed looking down towards Kintail. A narrow gap on the horizon gave me just a few minutes to photograph this tree. It was exceptionally windy and I only just made it! #scotland #landscapephotography #nature #naturephotography #highlands
