I've just returned from a short family holiday to St.Ives. I'm not normally one for chasing sunsets but the setting sun over big waves crashing onto Porthmeor Beach was not to be missed. #stives #cornwallphotography #seascape

Heather in full bloom up on Askwith Moor. A wonderfully peaceful spot to enjoy a sunset and take in the expansive views over Wharfedale. Well worth the walk up before the heather is gone for another year. #yorkshirephotography #Wharfedale #otley

It’s not all trees and landscapes for me. Nature offers smaller treasures too — a dragonfly hovering like a tiny helicopter, a ladybug exploring a leaf shell, a peacock butterfly vanishing into camouflage. Slowing down enough to notice them? That’s half the joy. #wildlifephotography #macro #nature

With dignity, deep in the heart of a rarely visited forest in Nidderdale, sits an oak that shows every stage of its steady decline. Yet it retains its grand sense of strength even as it gives itself back to the earth. #woodlandphotography #naturephotography #photooftheday #BlueskyPhotography

A midsummer sunset over the Otley Chevin, one of my favourite places to return to with my camera. Waited for this moment—and it gave back more than I hoped for. New print available now: www.mattbibbingsphotography.co.uk/product-page... #OtleyChevin #YorkshirePhotographer #blueskyphotography

I’ve seen plenty of roe deer slip away into the woods—but yesterday one stayed. Three encounters in two hours. Same deer? Maybe. Either way, it paused long enough for this dreamy image. Wildlife photography might be pulling me in deeper… #roedeer #wildlifephotography #yorkshirephotographer

The more time I spend on the Chevin, the more rooted I feel in its landscape. Less about taking pictures, more about connection and noticing. Making images there feels like a natural response to being present. #woodlandphotography #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #nature #landscape #photooftheday

Herb Robert, Herby Bob, Stinking Bob, Death Comes Quickly.... Whatever you call this tiny pink wildflower, you have to admire its resilience for being able to thrive almost anywhere. #photography #naturephotography #photooftheday #art #woodlandphotography #art #blueskydaily #BlueskyNature

A new local woodland for me. A fine mix of mostly Silver Birch and Oak above the village of Harden in West Yorkshire. Definitely on the list for a return visit. #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #BlueskyDaily #BlueskyPhotography

The first stage of dealing with an addiction is acknowledging there is one; but I'm not ready to admit my Beech addiction yet! #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #BlueskyDaily #BlueskyPhotography

Beech are consistently one of my favorite woodland subjects. Seeing their delicate spring foliage is both rewarding now and building anticipation for the same composition in autumn. www.mattbibbingsphotography.co.uk #woodlandphotography #natureprintsts #yorkshirephotography #blueskydaily

The seemingly endless carpet of #wildgarlic in Weston Woods, Otley. Late sun after some much-needed rain. #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #BlueskyCommunity #BlueskyDaily

Just the #Bluebells #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #BlueskyCommunity #BlueskyDaily

Looking out from underneath a giant Sitka Spruce. Despite its history as plantation crop in the UK these ones in have run wild in Timble Woods and are truly awesome in stature. #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #BlueskyDaily #BlueskyPhotography

Bluebells in Bow Beck, Near Denton, #westyorkshire. I fear that without any rain we are going to lose this years display of #bluebells in Yorkshire far too soon. #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #Bluebellwoods

Some beautifully backlit #SilverBirch in the late afternoon light of Fishpond Woods in #Nidderdale. 30 minutes of mindful wandering with my camera is enough sometimes to bring some balance back to my energy. ##photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #Woodlandphotography

The owner of this private woodland will be receiving a print in return for their hospitality and allowing access to their property. The question is which image to print for them? Any thoughts gratefully received. #photography #nature #woodlandphotography #bluebells #Yorkshire #BlueskyPhotography

When you ask and are given access to a private woodland with stunning bluebells it is proof that humans in touch with nature are more prone to kindness. #photography #nature #woodlandphotography #bluebells #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #BlueskyCommunity #BlueskyDaily #WildFlowerPhotography

A narrow shaft of light breaks through the forest canopy, temporarily bathing a #bluebell in soft light. Some of my favorite Bluebell images are available as prints on my website here 👉 shorturl.at/Oypj6 #photo #naturepoto #naturephoto #woodland #woodlandphotography #UKphotography #ShotOnBluesky

A 5am start with the forecast of Fog and a hill top full of bluebells. No fog. High winds. Retreat for plan B in the valley - Verdant spring colour of ne Beech leaves. #photography #nature #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #Bluesky

Back in January I set myself the goal of trying to begin to sell prints of my work. Today I can announce that I have launched my new website and I am proud to share it with you here on #bluesky Please do me the honor of liking and sharing this post on #worldartday www.mattbibbingsphotography.co.uk

Its been a while since my last upload. I have had my head buried in a project that I will reveal later this week. Something I am both excited and nervous about in equal measure. In the meantime, here's a Stitchwort! #photography #nature #woodlandphotography #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature

A new printer and a new Chapter in my photography journey. I have plans for 2025 and this is a major milestone in the right direction. #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #woodlandphotography#BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #BlueskyCommunity #BlueskyDaily

I final (maybe) winter image to share as I begin to look towards the coming warmth and growth of spring. #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #forest #trees #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #BlueskyCommunity #BlueskyDaily

Vascular. The interconnectedness of the forest is an allegory for our own inner selves. We are the nature #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #BlueskyCommunity #woodlandphotography #photooftheday #photography #nature

I've dipped my toe into Substack to share some longer form thoughts on my photography. I'd love you to take a look and if you enjoy it please consider subscribing and share my Substack with your followers here. open.substack.com/pub/mattbibb...

Another from the Frozen Fog. I will always prefer native woodlands over plantation, but there are sometimes stories to be found there. This to me feels like trees gathered around their fallen friend. #photography #naturephotography #photooftheday #woodlandphotography #BlueskyArtShow #BlueskyNature

Short lived freezing fog in Timble Woods yesterday morning. Once again proving that being in the right place at the right time is what makes or breaks an image. #photography #nature #Woodlandphotography #forest #trees #BlueskyPhotography #BlueskyNature #Art

Winged. I was hoping for low cloud this morning but I got a brief moment of freezing fog instead. This bare Larch contrasted well against the darker copse behind. #woodlandphotography #SilentSunday #bluesky #naturephotography #omsystem #om5

My first Snowdrop of the season. Always a welcome sign when these delicate little flowers start appearing in the woods #woodlandphotography #bluesky #photography #spring #snowdrop #snowdrops #omsystem #olympus #m43

Stood ankle deep in mud early afternoon light looking more like twilight with the rain about to start again I love the pastel shades these conditions create. #woodlandphotography #woodlandscenics #artandenvironment #theimpressionistlens #photography #icm

The south entrance to Wilsons Wood on the #otleychevin in wonderful atmospheric conditions #woodlandphotography #photography #yorkshire #wharfedale #ethereallight

Some more soft light in the fog of Wilsons Wood on the Otley Chevin a few weeks ago. I was praying for these conditions when it was snowed in but we always want more, don't we! #photography #woodlandphotography #yorkshire #fog #softlight #OMsystem

It snowed a bit. #photography #landscapephotography #OMsystem #OM5 #snow #yorkshiredales

Work has kept me from making the most of the snow this week but I managed a quick outing this morning. #photography #Snow #landscapephotography

One of my favorite images from the snow event that has beset England and Wales for the past 2 days. #woodlandphotography #photography #snow #oak #januarysnow

Two of my favorite tree images from a magical shoot on the Otley Chevin. I so rarely get the chance to shoot in these conditions that I feel a certain anxiety that I will do the conditions justice. #woodlandphotography #photography #naturephotography #WeAreRoamers

Ethereal fog and light on the Otley Chevin today. More of these to come. #woodlandphotography #fogphotography #photography #WeAreRoamers #ethearallight

Winter oak. #photography #abstractphotography #woodlandphotography #multipleexposure

Golden drops #woodlandphotography #photography #WeAreRoamers

1/2 Beyond my comfort zone but paradoxically staying right in it in the woods. Double and multiple exposure marrying a tree form with a texture. To me they give the feel of an early winter bleak woodland. I will push this technique further. We experiment, we learn, we grow. #woodlandphotography

Leaf studies. Single and double exposures. #Woodlandphotography #naturephotography #WeAreRoamers

Silver birch from back in September this year. One of my favorite tree species. #Woodlandphotography #naturephototography #phototography #tree #microfourthirds #m43 #omsystem #om5

At least where I live, it has been a particularly disappointing year for funghi. This was my favourite funghi image this year. It feels somehow like a family portrait. #photography #woodlandphotography #funghi #Naturephotography

If you hang around my feed you will no doubt see more of my local woodland. The Chevin in Otley is a diverse woodland with many great subjects. This set came from a run back in September. I sometimes carry my Ricoh GRiii on my runs if I think there might be a shot. #photography #woodlandphotography

What do you say when you get a response like my Northern Lights images? It is overwhelming to know my work has been in front of so many eyes and been received so well. #bluesky is proving to be both a human and humane platform. I am going to do my best to keep it that way with my contributions too.
