I was walking through this tunnel on the High-Level Bridge in Newcastle when all of a sudden this face popped out from behind one of the pillars.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Taken at the end of a long day exploring the Lake District. Surprise View allows you to get high above Derwent Water without straying too far from the car, making it perfect for sunset.

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.

The Shambles in York feel as if you have walked straight onto a Harry Potter set. The hustle and bustle of people going in and out of the medieval shops and restaurants transported you through time.

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

A last minute trip to the English Lake District In spring and we got lucky with the weather. As we climbed Scafell Pike it was grey and misty until we made it above the clouds, where we were greeted with blue skies.

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.
