A very early morning walk around the old Stubbins estate near Ramsbottom. Dark and moody till the sun rises. Brown winter colours everywhere with a few brighter colours here and there.

Dramatic winter skies over Belmont sweeping in from the coast. The wind farm near Blackpool are clearly visible on a very changeable day. The sun bursting through the fast moving clouds spotlights features in the landscape.

The Leeds Liverpool Canal in Altham. A misty freezing morning full of pastel colours.

A very empty Entwistle Reservoir after weeks without rain. It was a shock to see how low the water level was. In places it was possible to walk across from one side to the other. The Wader sculpture was a few feet out of the water.

A beautiful summer’s evening around Tockholes. The pennines come to life in the rich warm sunset.

Blackpool beach on a balmy summer’s evening. The whole sky is coloured by the setting sun and changes slowly it fades into the horizon.
