Back in August I went for a walk on #Dartmoor with Helen the Communications Officer from @dpadartmoor.bsky.social to shoot some fairy tale influenced images to illustrate the amazing "Wild Words" anthology she is curating 😍 Check it out here : dartmoorpreservation.co.uk/wild-words/

We're very pleased to announce that our Wild Words project is now listed on the #Exeter Unesco City of #Literature website, under their literary projects section. It's testament to the quality & inspiring nature of the work submitted. www.exetercityofliterature.com/devon-litera... #wildwords

Wonderful skies on Taw Marsh on #Dartmoor last week 😍

According to the fantastic Dartefacts (dartefacts.co.uk) ... this is Eylesbarrow Stamping/Smelting Mill No.2 om #Dartmoor (I'm not arguing) this is the first time I've visited the ruins of the Eylesbarrow Tin Mine and it will definitely be getting a second visit 😍 Splendid day out 💚📷

The View From Above💚 Yesterday I decided to give 10 minutes a day to working on things I've so far managed to not get around to doing. One of those things was flying the drone for absolutely no real reason apart from getting in some practise ... #northlew #devon #dronephotography

I've been slowly updating my website - I took some of the volunteers from The Museum of #Dartmoor Life for a walk around #Foggintor Quarry and the area back in November 2024 ... please take a read and give me some feedback ... thanks 💚
