Brill Windmill, Oxfordshire

Marcham All Saints Church earlier today, in South Oxfordshire

Yesterday I went with @annadillon.bsky.social up onto The Ridgeway to start planning reference shots for our next exhibition. Though the light wasn't good enough, we now have more of an idea of where to capture.

"Cwichelm’s Barrow". An Iron Age barrow on Cuckhamsley Hill beside The Ridgeway above West Ilsley (also locally known as Scutchamers Knob). Taken today with @annadillon.bsky.social

Following a very sedentary day I am very proud to have just completed the edit of my Brecon Beacons video, out Friday evening on my channel.

The Upper Neuadd Reservoir dam, with the Central Brecons behind; Bannau Brycheiniog yesterday. #Wales

The drained Upper Neuadd Reservoir in the Central Brecon Beacons. Behind (left to right) are Corn Du, Pen-y-Fan and Cribyn. #Wales

To the wild campers in my audience (apologies to everyone else!)

The Rollright Stones, last summer.

This time tomorrow night, all being well...

Looking down Streatley Warren (Berkshire Downs) towards The Chilterns on the horizon, earlier today.

Haulin' my overloaded backside over the Berkshire Downs. I hear that there is a pub ahead...

Wayland's Smithy from The Ridgeway

Asking famous YouTuber @paulwhitewick.bsky.social to come wild camping...

Odstone Coombes, a highly soliflucted landscape (love that word) near Ashbury in Oxfordshire.

Crocuses in beech woodland, high on the downs at Court Hill above Wantage in Oxfordshire.

My usual view of Wayland's Smithy longbarrow, as today was such a glorious day!

On the way to get some serious aerial shots of somewhere special.

Climbing through an ancient forest to the summit of Sugarloaf Mountain in Wales.

The Thames at Days Lock, Wittenham. @upperthames.bsky.social

The perpendicular tower of the medieval All Saints' Church at Alton Priors, #Wiltshire today.

Excited to have been filming with these two in Wiltshire today! @paulwhitewick.bsky.social and my boy James.

Uffington Castle, photo taken yesterday from above The Ridgeway. At 220 metres long by 160 metres wide, this Iron Age hillfort ramparts would have once been lined with sarsen stones.

Looking at exhibition rooms with @annadillon.bsky.social. Hope we find one in time...

Wandered out along The Ridgeway to see this fine old nag today!

Liddington Clump, high up in Wiltshire. The site of a decoy Starfish control room from WW2.

Wet woodland camp with a tiny bit of rubbish karaoke youtu.be/zBQrAhikAgw?...

St Mary's Vale, above Abergavenny in #Wales

Smile, ignore the subzero windchill, pretend to be coping before the snowy descent! Sugarloaf Mountain, Wales

Quite possibly England's most remote place; Fur Tor in the very centre of Dartmoor.

It took me 20 seconds to make these fake images using AI. They are worthless and will never match the experience of seeing genuine, human created works of art and photography. If something looks fake, or someone offers to turn my work into "NFTs", I walk on.

The Boer War monument on Coombe Hill, above Wendover in The Chilterns, stands at 260m above sea level. #Ridgeway

Deer barking, owls hooting and the odd whoosh of wind above in the tree canopy. I may be an older man, but when I am camping in the woods I feel 8 again.

The Ridgeway crossing The Thames, connecting Streatley and Goring in Berkshire. #Ridgeway #Thames

Oliver's Castle, Roundway Down

Brightwell Barrow, from the Oxfordshire Series by Anna Dillon @annadillon.bsky.social This will also be a familiar viewpoint to Paul Nash fans, but I think Anna's version here is far better. More information and prints below; annadillon.com/brightwell.html

"Hedley's Bike on The Ridgeway" by Ruth Rothery (oil on board). I absolutely love this picture (framed and hanging in my kitchen)!

The Thames at Goring, with Mill Cottage (centre, former home of George Michael) and the church of St Thomas of Canterbury (right).

Hartslock Wood beside The Thames yesterday. One of only 3 places in the UK where the Monkey Orchid grows.

The #Thames at Streatley and St Mary's church, nestled up against the majestic Berkshire Downs earlier today.

Cribyn with Pen-y-Fan behind, which has a Bronze Age barrow on the summit. #Wales

As per my recent video, many campers died last year due to carbon monoxide poisoning (EVs and tents), so I have a 20% discount on a light, portable CO detector and alarm (USB chargeable) whch also show temperature and moisture. Go to the link and used code "Hedley" uk.itehil.com/collections/...

The amazing climb from Meldon Reservoir up to Shelstone Tor in #Dartmoor

From the nave, under the tower, through the choir to the high alter and lady chapel of Salisbury Cathedral. Beneath are 4ft foundations and the columns supporting the tower and spire bow inwards under the weight. @salisburycathedral.bsky.social

"Wōdnesbeorg" cloaked in shadow (Woden's Barrow/Adam's Grave) lorded over by the Alton Barnes White Horse on Milk Hill. The colours yet to come in wonderful #Wiltshire

If you are feeling dry and warm, this will make you cold and clammy... youtu.be/pli-Mr-Cj0I?...

Late summer, beech clump beside The Ridgeway. Good evening, I hope everyone is well. #Ridgeway

The West Okement valley on Dartmoor, overlooked by Black Tor. The woodland is Black-a-Tor Copse, an ancient high altitude oak woodland "rainforest". Pretty sure there are hobbits in there...

The West Okement River surging down from the high moors, tumbling past dramatic granite rock formations and ancient oak woodlands. #Dartmoor
