travelers stories about Road trip in M6, United Kingdom

Road trip in M6, United Kingdom

So, this is during my university life. I had planned to capture light trails in Manchester since a long time. One night after dinner, a week before I was returning to my home country for summer break I suddenly decided to hit the road for light trails. For me it’s not about the end result always, it’s more about the process. Because the process he’s you to the destination and that’s not only in photography but in life everywhere.

Managed to get this shot about halfway through my hike the other day. I peaked the trail I was on to discover a deserted reservoir, not a person in sight. Ended up jumping the wall surrounding it to shoot some stuff, resulting in this image. Luke.x

travelers stories about Forest in Alderley Edge, United Kingdom

Forest in Alderley Edge, United Kingdom

  21 km from Greater Manchester


This local national park is beautiful every season and I have been capturing each one. The trees are usually the ones I look up to but at this time of year its more about looking down. The incredible golden pathway the leaves have created only happens for maybe 4-6 weeks. The squirrels are still running around collecting for the winter. It may have been an overcast day but the colour created by nature set the tone.

travelers stories about Shore in Sparrowpit, United Kingdom

Shore in Sparrowpit, United Kingdom

  32 km from Greater Manchester


We woke to an unexpected snowfall. The skies had lifted but there was still a bite to the cold air. We’d planned a walk over the hills to the pub in Castleton and decided not to let the lack of adequate clothing hold us back. The snow lifted the landscape and made beautiful features of countryside furniture that may otherwise have seemed untidy. This gate, serving little purpose in its current state, seemed justified in its decision to give up on its regular task.

travelers stories about Hill in Winnats Pass, United Kingdom

Hill in Winnats Pass, United Kingdom

  34 km from Greater Manchester


I remember seeing a picture like this a long time ago. I knew at that point that I would have to go and experience it for myself one day. After some research, it turns out that if you wait until the end of the Summer the sun sets right at the top of the valley resulting in this magnificent sunset! I still feel like the picture doesn’t even do it justice!

Catching the back end of storm Caroline which has given us snow showers for the last 2 days. Delamere forest gave us some pretty moody views to capture with its partially snow covered paths and frozen lakes. A change in theme for these pics leading with de-saturated oranges and greens.

travelers stories about Landmark in Littlewoods Building, United Kingdom

Landmark in Littlewoods Building, United Kingdom

  46 km from Greater Manchester


This is the old Littlewoods building where hundreds of thousands of catalogue orders were processed when the building was in it’s prime. (I believe) It’s now been left in a derelict state, waiting it’s rebuild as a sound stage and movie studios over the next five years. This was taken on my lunch break as I work opposite this decrepit monolith and see it every day. Happy to finally get a change to photograph it.

travelers stories about Ocean in Crosby, United Kingdom

Ocean in Crosby, United Kingdom

  52 km from Greater Manchester


The Gormley ‘In Another Place’ sculptures are famous on Crosby beach, children play amongst them and occasionally tourists and art lovers interact with them, but when the tide marches in they remain, motionless staring out to sea with only a horizon filled with wind turbines for company. I doubt Gormley’s original intention was to highlight climate reality, but the image of the figure staring out to sea at the turbines is a powerful one nonetheless.

This is one of those classic shots where you get the shots set up you get the angle right and then everything changes but in this case, for the better. the sea washed in and with a bit of seafoam and it made the whole thing come together especially when you can see the flow of the water just caressing the side of the shell

An inquisitive tree lover from my local park gardens. Probably on the hunt for snacks but only finding photos. I love the longing look into the mid distance pose I managed to direct.

We were walking up a hill in the North Yorkshire countryside and I decided that this scene would make a beautiful image. I used an old Helios 44-2 to capture this landscape. It almost looks like a watercolour painting.

Forest in Gisburn Bike Trail (Green), United Kingdom

  60 km from Greater Manchester


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

This has to be my favourite image from my latest day shooting and this was a super last minute shot. I had my bag on my back, heading up the beach to catch my train home, camera still in hand. I happened to see these two lads just sat in total silence, glaring at the sunset, just like they were hooked in the moment. So down I got (to their level) and took the shot. Best last minute shot ever. Luke. x

Im a student, I live in London 9 out of the 12 months so when I visit home, there is no better feeling than breathing the fresh air and exploring my surroundings. Ashby Ville is a lake which took the life of one of my close friends when I was younger, the council took action and made the area safer and more environmentally friendly, it was great to explore the new land.
