An exploration of a rugged ancient woodland in North Yorkshire. Spanning over 15 years, these photographs chronicle the changing moods and seasons of a timeless forest. 

Ancient Woodland
The Crimple Valley A vast wheat field, ripe and golden-brown, stretches under a dramatic sky over the Crimple Valley. A pathway cuts through the center, leading towards distant hills dotted with trees. The sky is a mix of dark storm clouds and brighter patches where sunlight breaks through, highlighting the wheat's rich color and creating a scene of imminent weather change, contrasting the tranquillity of the rural landscape.

North Yorkshire's Wild Moorlands An intense sunrise bathes North Yorkshire moorland in soft light. A mist gently blankets the moorland as the warm glow of the morning sun permeates the serene landscape of moss-covered rocks and heather.
The Crimple Viaduct The Crimple Valley Viaduct's stone structure bathed in sunlight. Arches rise from sturdy pillars, their shadows striping the textured walls. The golden hue of the stone contrasts with the soft arch shadows, evoking a sense of historic grandeur.

The Crimple Viaduct

Straddling the picturesque Crimple Valley between Pannal and Hornbeam Park stations in Harrogate North Yorkshire, this Grade II listed structure is not just a feat of railway engineering but a breath-taking sight. 

School Run

The same daily walk over many years

School Run An old, gnarled tree with bare, intertwining branches dominates the view against a misty, ethereal backdrop. The contorted tree limbs stretch skywards, enveloped by a soft, diffuse light, creating an atmospheric, almost otherworldly forest scene.
Yorkshire Dales A rugged landscape with windswept grasses and lichen-covered rocks in the foreground. Beyond lies a deep limestone ravine edged by sheer cliffs, under a dusky sky in Yorkshire Dales.

Seascapes of the Outer Hebrides A sweeping sandy beach graces the foreground, with gentle waves caressing the shore and leaving a smooth, wet surface. A grass-topped dune rises to the right, bathed in warm light from a softly lit sky streaked with lavender and gold hues. In the distance, gentle hills fade into the horizon under a tranquil sky.
Nightscapes A solitary tree stands beside a stone wall under a starry sky, with a milky strip of galaxy visible. Below, gentle hills cradle a reflective body of water, glowing faintly from the crescent moon rising on the horizon.
