Bernard got this photo of me at the top

11 May 2021

Bernard got this photo of me at the top of Pocket Wall (VDiff) at Hobson Moor Quarry a few weeks ago. I'm smiling because the hard part was near the bottom and its all plain sailing now. A quality Climbing Clan Thursday evening in the sun where we climbed 4 or 5 routes together, each […]

Aonach Eagach in pictures

6 May 2014

As I wrote I might, I traversed the Aonach Eagach ridge in Glen Coe on Saturday. We were on the ridge it in ideal conditions and it was every bit as exposed, long and committing (there are no escape routes once you're on it) as expected. I was glad to be travelling with a group […]

Portraits: Bess

6 February 2013

One thing about taking photos of people, is that there's quite a lot to consider, and one of the most central is the feelings of the person you're taking the photograph of. If the person being photographed doesn't like the photo, posting it say, on this blog, might be a good way to make myself […]

2012: A year in photos

29 December 2012

This year, across 4 different Cameras, I've taken just over 20,000 photos. That's a lot of photos, and I thought it might be nice to share some of my favourite photos of 2012. Taken on a camera phone, the following photo proves that it's the subject, not an expensive camera, which makes the picture.

Morocco: In Photos

Several weeks ago I went on a walk with UMHC, up Catbells, Maiden Moor and High Spy from Grange: I've been up Catbells before – in fact my first ever walk with the club was up Catbells from Keswick, but this time, we were dropped off at Grange and walked along the valley before ascending […]
