Harmby Falls

Harmby Falls

Beautiful sunshine casting its light and shadows across Harmby Falls near Leyburn in north Yorkshire. Tucked away down a footpath you come across this lovely little falls, well worth a visit but can be quite muddy and if you have a psychotic  husk attached to you she can pull you in the water, just ask Jo…..shouldn’t laugh!

Sutton Heather

Sutton Heather

Another from Sutton Bank from the weekend, love the composition but unfortunately the sun didn’t play fair and shine fully where I would have liked, shame on you Mr Sun!…

Off to collect my portfolio prints today so hope they look as good as the printer said they do, then its a day of writing apart form taking Stormy for her booster injection, sure she’ll enjoy that, mind you she enjoys all the fuss the vets and staff make over her.

Nearly Friday and I’ll be 30 again tomorrow….hhmmm I wish

Yes i know, the composition isn’t spot on but when life gives you lemons, find someone who life gave vodka!

It was just after midday and the wind was nearly blowing me over the edge and believe me I was really only a few inches from meeting the big man himself, Jo called me back as she didn’t want to drive home on her own, all heart she is, NOT

Its one of those places where even though it’s quite busy especially a Sunday afternoon and so accessible for all ages you get a great sense of peacefulness. I did a sunset here last year but the weather was terrible, i think I will make a comeback real soon.

I have a couple more to upload later that show the vastness of the view, including a little bit of heather

The road up to it is very steep indeed, on our way back down a flatbed truck had lost it’s load of scaffolding planks and the guys were frantically trying to reload while onlookers thought “rather you than me mate” I certainly wouldn’t have stood at the back of an old truck parked on one of the steepest gradients in England, I googled it and apparently 120 HGV’s failed to get up it and some 400 required police assistance….not for the faint hearted.

Quiet day today, deliveries coming in, business insurance to sort and renew…thats a day job in its self and a couple of shots to sort for customers.

Back out tomorrow, in fact I think were going to do some cavern photography, should be fun

have a great day

One from yesterday taken at Harmby in the Yorkshire Dales. It’s tucked away and well hidden in a little gill behind a house garden, beautiful little fall which gently carries on down stream

Shouldn’t  laugh but I handed Stormy to Jo and she pulled her straight over and Jo finished up on all fours in the mud, I never even noticed, if I had that would have been today’s picture.

We’re looking at Skye for 2 weeks so I can do a pretty in depth catalogue of shots, can anybody recommend a good site for a tourer caravan that’s basically on a shore line and close to most places? will be heading up there end Sept beginning Oct so shouldn’t be many midges left…I climbed Ben Nevis last year in June and was bitten from the  bottom to top and back down again…

More shots later, we’re having a relaxing day today, busy week ahead and my birthday Friday…doesn’t time fly, think we’re going to hit the coast for the day, it’s been a few weeks and I’m having withdrawal symptoms.

 

enjoy the bank holiday
