When on the east coast I always try to make it up for one sunrise which on this occasion was a very cold but bright Saturday morning.

January Overview - Nickscape 365 Project

I've reached the end of the first month of my 2019 Nickscape 365 Project having posted 31 landscape from my archives each day for January. I've had a great response to the images on Social Media. I've tried to mix up the images keeping the winter theme with some traditional landscapes with some more personal images from my trips mixed in for variety. The images highlight my trips over the years to all corners of the British Isles, judging by the images, the Scottish Highlands is definitely a favourite of mine for winter scenery.

During the first weekend in September I took an opportunity for a long weekend on the south coast of England with the aim of capturing the Sussex coastline.

Lake District Summer Photography - Photography trip to Langdale

I always aim to enjoy a long weekend in the UK Lake District national park each June. I find June to be the perfect time of year to capture the Lake District in the summer season as the scenery has had time to develop to a beautiful green without becoming overgrown.

Southern Ireland - Killarney National Park & Ring of Kerry

My second major photography trip for 2018 was a first for me with a trip across the water to explore the glorious landscape of Southern Ireland. Ireland has long been on my list of places to explore so when the opportunity came up I was really pleased to be able to get the time off work for an extended trip.

We spent 10 days in Ireland altogether, splitting our time between a city break in Cork and a week long exploration by hire car around the south west coastline. We had a base for the week near to Killarney and spent most days on the road hiking and sightseeing around the beautiful mountains and coastline of County Kerry.
