Photographer, walker and socialist living in Coniston, love France and Switzerland.
Yewtree Tarn near Coniston, nicely frozen after a cold week. The sun doesn’t quite reach in there at this time of year.

The clear air over Coniston tonight makes it a perfect evening for photographing the first full moon of the year.

A sheep at sunset. Glowing in the setting sun, this young Herdwick lives on Torver Back Common. I just walk there. 😊

On a path close to Grasmere, a beautiful piece of Lakeland slate, from Elterwater quarry I think. A shame I put my boot print on it before realising how photogenic it was 😂

All quiet in Coniston this morning and ‘normal’ levels of water in the beck, but the weather forecast suggests it could be full tomorrow morning.

Eglwys Llanbadrig near Cemaes Bay, the oldest church in Wales. Thought to be the place where St Patrick came ashore after being shipwrecked on his way from Iona to Ireland.

The Cemaes Bay Tide Bell. Rung by the high tide (and the odd curious tourist😂) it is a public artwork that was installed in 2014.

Some very different views from Coniston today. I’ve never been to this place before, it was steep, rocky, covered in gorse, bramble and Bracken. I don’t expect to revisit, but the views were something a little different from the usual.
