With some good weather forecast, I was keen to grab an iconic shot of the Peak District at sunset, a view that anybody would recognise! The Monsal Trail is a famous route through the Peak District, popular with cyclists and hikers alike. It’s popular with families too and people wanting to take a stroll. The…
After a great experience on our first ‘post lockdown’ shooting hike, I was keen to capture some more woodland bluebell images and possibility some sunset images over Froggatt Edge. We parked up below Curbar Edge and walk up to Froggatt Edge through the woodland. Froggatt Woods Sunlight Once we reached the edge we made our…
The news came in from Downing Street, the lockdown was easing and we could travel for exercise! Kirsty and I were relieved as we had both missed the Peak District so much during the Covid-19 situation. With camera in hand, we set off to hike around near Hathersage and Stanage Edge with the aim of…
