Scarborough Castle from Burniston Rocks – With Scarborough Castle in the far background, Burniston Rocks is apart of Yorkshire’s Jurassic coastline, about 4 miles North of Scarborough. The area is famed for its prehistoric legacy. Dinosaurs footprints have been found on the rocks at Burniston, but for me this little known cove is fantastic for giant boulders and rock pools and if caught at the right time of day & year with the right weather conditions can make the most interesting foreground feature, as good or if not better than the Dorset coast, plus you are facing the right way to catch thoses dramatic sunrises. Here’s a link to the colour version – Burniston Rocks

Whitby Beach Mono

Whitby Beach – This image was taken looking down the beach from the west pier as the tide was going out, I like the way the family add scale to the image. It’s not my usual style of photograph, but it has got a simplicity about it that I like. It also work well in Colour, take a look and let me know what you think? Whitby Beach Colour Image

Whitby Beach – This image was taken looking down the beach from the west pier as the tide was going out, I like the way the family add scale to the image. The shot reminds me of an oil painting or a Sandra Orm pastel image. It’s not my usual style of photograph, but it has got a simplicity about it that I like. It also work well in mono, take a look and let me know what you think? Whitby Beach Mono image

Alone on Whitby Jetty – One of a series of image taken on the morning of the 27th December 2011, this is my personal favorite. I like the elevated position of the camera, taken from a temporary gantry from the west pier to the jetty with an obliging stranger walking in the centre it makes forContinue Reading

Calm Whitby Harbour Mono

Calm Whitby Harbour – After bumping into some members of a camera club from Middlesbrough, we had a walk from the abbey down to the harbour quayside, where with the protection of the harbour walls it was like a mill pond, so finding a suitable foreground I started to to compose a pleasing image. I think this works just as well in mono, what do you think? Let me know!

I like the pink of the cloudes as they glow just before the sunrise.

Whitby Harbour Anchor

The ancient wooden stock anchor was caught in the nets of a fishing vessel in 1981 and was presented to the town by its crew and was soon after placed on the jetty where it still stands today. As you can see this was take on the very calm and peaceful morning just after Christmas 2011

Whitby Jetty 1 – Taken on the 27 December 2011 at around 8am, there was not soul about, well apart from this guy. He was very helpfull after asking him to walk in the centre of the Jetty so I could recreate this very often photographed scene. But I think my interpritation works quite well. What do you think?

Standing on the summit of Parkhouse hill looking west just the winter sun started to drop you get this nice warm orangy glow bouncing off Crome Hill with snow already gone from the low ridge of Parkhouse Hill (IContinue Reading
