Ocean in Farne Islands, United Kingdom

I took this on a boat trip to the Farne Islands in 2008. There was a good swell, and I love the shot of the wave in the foreground with Bamburgh Castle just visible in the background

Watercourse in High Force Waterfall, United Kingdom

  66 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


This stunning Waterfall in the north of England gave me nightmares. I honestly couldn’t fall asleep that night as the image of watching down from where it all starts, was so frightening. It was the most violent waterfall I’ve witnessed.

Rainbow over the Yorkshire Dales, I was treated to the rainbow over this barn in the distant. I thought whoever's' barn it was would have a bit of luck that day.

travelers stories about Ocean in Whitby, United Kingdom

Ocean in Whitby, United Kingdom

  84 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


Last week, I got married! Straight after, the wife and I headed up to Whitby to enjoy each other’s company. I went for a walk one morning, and was met by glorious early sunshine. As I sat down on the pier, taking in the picturesque North Yorkshire views, I felt happier than I have in a long, long time. This picture really sums this feeling up for me, and I love how the grey of my trainers are bathed in sunlight against the turquoise sea.

travelers stories about Shore in Whitby, United Kingdom

Shore in Whitby, United Kingdom

  84 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


I was stood at the end of Whitby Pier in Yorkshire, England watching the sea fisherman. The pier has two levels and as I was on the upper one I had a great view of what was happening below. The light on the sea was amazing and as I looked down I saw a sneaky hand reaching towards the bag - to me it looked like he was trying to steal his mate’s fish or lunch.

travelers stories about Ruins in Whitby Abbey, United Kingdom

Ruins in Whitby Abbey, United Kingdom

  84 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


The Whitby Abbey was the inspiration for Bram Stocker’s novel, “Dracula.” While we did not get bitten by vampires, we thought we were going to blow away in the wind this day! While our hair was whipping around in front of our eyes, we caught glimpses of the grass flowing as if it was made of water. The golden hues matched perfectly with the abbey ruins.

Cottage in Swing Bridge, United Kingdom

  84 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


One of the only ways to get from one side of this small seaside town’s harbour to the other. The River Esk, which flows under the bridge and out to the North Sea has carved down through the landscape to create the coastal landscape of Whitby.

travelers stories about Hill in Hull Pot Beck, United Kingdom

Hill in Hull Pot Beck, United Kingdom

  113 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


Hull Pot is essentially the remains of a cave, of which there are many in the Yorkshire Dales, where the “roof” has collapsed, leaving a giant chasm in the surrounding moorland underneath Pen-y-ghent. It’s the largest natural hole in England, measuring 300 ft long, 60 ft wide, and 60 ft deep. But arguably the main showstopper of the area is Pen-y-ghent (694 m/2,277 ft), the fell that dominates the skyline all around the Ribblesdale valley. It’s an unusual name as it sounds very Welsh; that’s because the name survives from ancient Cumbric, which is related to Welsh.

travelers stories about Hiking in Helvellyn, United Kingdom

Hiking in Helvellyn, United Kingdom

  117 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


As I reached the top of Helvellyn from the Striding Edge approach, I took a photo of my friends posing by the summit. As I smiled and checked the photo, I noticed another group. Their arms locked together, they smiled at small jokes they made as they all stared at the lakes below us. I took this photo and then approached them to ask if they would like a copy. They were three sisters with their mother. The mother is the lady in green who's glasses you can just make out. The way they face the view as she clings fondly to her daughters; this image will always remind me of family.

Hill in Kirkstone Pass, United Kingdom

  117 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


The afternoon light disappeared as quickly as it arrived leaving us with grey clouds and rain in the distance. But we were out of the car, so we grabbed our gear and followed the sound of the water. Just over the dry stone wall we found our next shot down the Pass of the small brook tumbling over rocks and boulders.

travelers stories about Highland in Raven Crag, United Kingdom

Highland in Raven Crag, United Kingdom

  119 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


Setting off just before dawn, we hiked the short 1km trail up to the top of Raven Crag, which overlooks the length of Thirlmere. It was one of those bitingly cold winter mornings, but the moment the sun came up over the Helvellyn range, all discomforts are forgotten as you realise the beauty of the world.

travelers stories about Hill station in Ambleside, United Kingdom

Hill station in Ambleside, United Kingdom

  120 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


We took a wrong turn on the way to some caves you’ll see in other photos, but instead of turning back we found an empty field for an impromptu game of baseball. Second time this year that I’ve played baseball in a British National Park and there is nothing better than spontaneous games in the most beautiful settings. Not sure this will be an image that others can use particularly but it was one I wanted to share regardless, hope you like it.

It was the end of a long day in the Lake District. We just managed to get some bouldering in on Langdale Boulders as the sun began to set, casting beautiful shadows down the valley.

Forest in Gisburn Bike Trail (Green), United Kingdom

  131 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


After a 7 mile walk around the beautiful Gisburn Forrest in the Forrest of Bowland we were against the clock. The winer sun was setting fast and so we knew we had to take a shortcut through, what looked like, a disused track back to our car We stumbled across an old pine forrest that had been hit by a massive storm only a couple of years ago. Everything was perfect, the sun just landing on the horizon, the temperature dropping to 0c and even Wally our dog not running through shot. Amazing what you find off the beaten path

Highland in Wast Water, United Kingdom

  137 km from St. Mary's Lighthouse


We spent a weekend in the Lake District and on the way stopped off to explore the shores of Wast Water. Weather was perfect, if not a bit chilly and I was jealous of the folks swimming and kayaking in the water. We got another lucky look at the lake as the road to Gosforth was blocked by a crash between a Vectra and a Tesco van.
