Holbeck Ghyll Reccomendation

"We came across Robert's work quite by accident when looking for inspiration for our Christmas cards, which we send to thousands of past guests, friends and suppliers. Robert had stayed at Holbeck Ghyll the previous Christmas and captured the heart-stopping view from the hotel on a typically atmospheric Lake District day. We fell in love with the shot - along with about a dozen others - and were thrilled when he agreed to let us use it."

Recent Work

Tower Reflection

Derwent reservoir offered the perfect mirror image of the tower overlooking it. Taken at dusk, I thought it only fitting to keep this image in monochrome, to truly represent the feeling of darkness the mist and clouds swirling around the valley had created.

Autumn Leaf

The contrast of colours I captured in this image really make this picture. Autumn is one of the best times of year for photographers because of the dazzling array of colours it brings out in nature, and there's nothing like Autumn in England. I like the close up with this shot, the detail captured by the camera, you can almost reach out and feel the crinkled edges of the leaf disintegrate between your fingers.

Peveril of the Peak

Built around 1820 the Grade II listed public house, The Peveril of the Peak is a Manchester landmark. It is said to be named after a famous stagecoach which ran from Manchester to Derbyshire,. interestingly there is also another pub of the same name in Derbyshire from around the same time which claims it name from the novel of the same name written by Sir Walter Scott of Ivanhoe fame. The Peveril of the Peak undoubtedly stands out as a piece of Manchester history in its own right, and also is said to be haunted!

Bird Flying High

Perched atop my apartment building just before dawn I was enjoying the relative coolness that the night provides in Menorca, awaiting the golden hour for photographers that the dawn brings, as well as the scorching heat that follows. I caught this image just right with light just starting to illuminate the scene but still faint enough to produce the dark imagery of the coast with the solitary bird flying high above the Mediterranean.

Clear Current

The third of three long exposures taken at Earby Waterfalls. Again the product of experimentation with Long Exposures, with this image I really wanted to get a sense of movement with the current as it makes it way down to the small pool below. I really enjoy the results of long exposures, they both catch and keep the attention.

Green and Blue

The green and pleasant land of England is unmistakable and incomparable with any other country in the world, Shropshire is a prime example.

City Road

On the corner of Albion and Whitworth sits the City Road Inn public house, a great pub for relaxing a short distance away from the louder Deansgate Locks. The pub has been around for at least 132 years, the earliest landlords name being Frederick Sumner and it is a true Manchester landmark, that begs to be captured on film.

Hotspur Press

Built in the early 19th Century the Hotspur Press building was originally part of Manchester's booming textile industry as a cotton mill. Originally named after the River Medlock which borders two sides of the building, the Medlock Mill was purchased by the Percy Brothers and remade into a printing warehouse that was still in operation until 2011. This building is one of the best examples of Manchester's industrial past, evolved to meet the modern needs of the city, and its still in use today as a haven for artists and designers of all kinds.
