Stanley Park in Blackpool. Surreal first light has created an other-worldly feel over the silent lake at dawn. Fallen trees and dense algae create a desolate environment.

A right mucky day. Dark threatening clouds moving slowly over the pennine moors. The landscape is changing to an autumn glow of browns and dark yellows.

Dramatic clouds on a typical autumn day on Blackpool beach. High fast moving clouds overhead create striking high contrast shapes and textures. Deserted because of the threat of rain which arrived quickly.

A very patchy day with the strong sunlight in and out from behind the racing clouds. Stunning contrast and colours during a couple of hours between rain and dull spells.

Surrounded by a canopy of leaves the woods become a tapestry of textures and colours. The changing sunlight splatters shadows and highlights everywhere creating stunning almost painting like pictures.

Early morning around Hoghton. On a day where rain and cloud is forecast the brief bursts of sunlight create a stunning palette of colours.
