Lud's Church is a remarkable geological formation located in the Peak District National Park, Staffordshire, England. This deep, moss-covered chasm was created by a massive landslip in the Millstone Grit bedrock, resulting in a natural ravine over 100 metres long and 18 metres deep. The stone steps winding up out of the gorge led me to take this image, which entices you in. 

As you head away from the town of Ambleside, and up into the top of the Lakes District in the United Kingdom, the landscape changes dramatically and rapidly into this short hardy grass. The dramatic view as you come over the rise inspired me to get out and capture this image, with the gloomy clouds scudding overhead, it captures the essence of these highland areas. 

Overlooking Derwent Water, and home to the famous pencil factory of the same name, Surprise View sits on the side of the road outside Keswick, in the Lakes District of the UK. A moody day, brightened by the beautiful green palette of the english countryside.

The Tora River flows down through the Billingin area, in the Reinheimen National Park, in one of the high interior valleys of central Norway. A bridge that was first built in the 1900's crosses here, and allowed me to see the incredible flow of this river in full melt. 

An amazing site, and precarious situation. The hike up from the base in Billingen, in the Reinheimen National Park is steep and beautiful. At this point a rock, wedged in between the cliffs allows walkers to pass from one side of the river to the other. The best spot for an image though, was perched on the side of a narrow lookout above the falls.

This Alpine lake in southern Norway sits high, and is an important source of Hydroelectric power. We were here in Mid Summer and there was still snow on the ground, it was incredible to see. The weather wasn't co-operating, until I got a tiny break in the wind and rain, to capture the still beauty that I had seen in this place. 

High in the interior valleys of Norway, next to Billingen, within the Reinheimen National Park, lie a series of incredible Waterfalls, cascading down. After hiking the waterfall, on the other side, the land opened up and revealed this incredible view, of a small family farm, fenced in the traditional way. 

Knutholmen Is a village on the Atlantic Coast of Norway, It has a rich tradition of fishing and drying the fish, with drying racks dominating any empty space on the islands to this day. We stayed here and had this amazing view for the night, however I had to wait until Midnight to capture this!

Lofoten Islands, above the Arctic Circle in Norway are incredible, with mountains emerging from the ocean. We travelled there in Summer, and made it up to this incredible lookout at Offersøykammen, looking North towards the Arctic. It's a really short, hard hike and results in feeling on top of the world and exhausted. 

Captured at 1am during Summer, This outstanding image had me standing out with Sheep on the beach for about 2 hours, as the sun dropped just under the horizon and then bobbed back up again. The waters of the Skjelfjorden lapped at my tripod feet, and I had to ensure the water movement didn't ruin the image.
