A little reminder that I have produced a beautiful hardback book of my photographs and words, 152 pages of Peak District inspiration, presented seasonally. It makes a perfect present or a treat to curl up with on dark evenings. 🥰

@Chata_Bee I often do. This has been a farming and lead mining area for thousands of years, and the communities were built upon that. It’s still mostly farming with some quarrying industry too.

@Bumpkincountry1 Hmm, possibly, if you’d like me to add it as a print?

@Owler2009 Very close yes, Hucklow Edge, a little further along. And thank you.

@greenwoodpecker Bottom centre, yes.

@bobandannie That’s what it’s all about. 🥰

@Montylockedout Thank you so much, I’m so glad you like it. ☺️

@AylmerTH In the far distance. 😊

@mark_lj @nigeldanson Woooah, what a shot!

@Smithpeteralb72 Yep!

@christi52793166 No, I hand-hold everything because I like to be agile and move a lot! I can hold my breath well for 1/4s, otherwise there’s always a handy gate or branch or wall to rest on. 😊

@johnpar46831807 Close, it’s looking down from Hucklow Edge onto Great Hucklow and Grindlow.

@christi52793166 Thank you! I deliberately don’t include that information because I think it can feel a bit exclusionary? But, Sony a7iii, Tamron 50-400mm at 100mm, f9, iso500, 1/125. My camera is an old workhorse but I love it. 🥰

@david_w_chamber Obviously I capture both, but on this particular morning the farmed fields stretching away into the distance caught my eye. Yes we need far more nature in our landscape.

It’s the dome-shaped rock in the valley to the top right of the image. It’s a high point in a steep valley and many years ago it was the site of the gibbet for this area, where bodies were hung after execution for the birds to peck at, the bones eventually rattling in the wind in their metal cage. It’s an atmospheric place and those with an active imagination can still hear the rattle….

@RuthArnold @TWeeramanthri Thank you so much, praise indeed!

@johnpar46831807 It was Thursday morning.

@Traveldogs36 Thank you very much 😍

@subakai I did sell it internationally for a month last year but the postage was ridiculously high and there is so much paperwork for each order, I’m afraid it’s unworkable, sorry.

@JohnPaulHoskins Thank you very much 😌
