Stamford in the Winter

Another shot of the River Welland Snow. This is in the center of the quaint Lincolnshire market town of Stamford, 2009.

River Welland

Taken during the dry cold winter of 2009, this is the River Welland, running through the frozen English market town of Stamford, Lincolnshire, 2009.

Peterborough Ice

A snowbound back road into Peterborough from Lincolnshire, England, 2009.

Misteltoe Tree

First and only time that I think I have actually seen a Mistletoe Tree. This was in the grounds of Burghley House, just inside Lincolnshire during the cold snap of 2009.

Burghley House

A black and white of the sixteenth century Burghley House, the centerpiece of a vast estate as the southern end of Lincolnshire, 2009.

Barnack

I used to drive along this back road every night on my way back from a construction site, but never stopped to look. This is the one time I did - during a heavy snow event. Lincolnshire, England, 2009.

North Sea

Normally I believe that black and white images don't work with a lot of clutter; but I do this like one; maybe because the shadows accentuate the the large tidal range of the North Sea here. Berwick Upon Tweed, England, 2014.

Lindisfarne Bagpipes

A Scottish piper plays at the base of the castle on the Holy Isle of Lindisfarne. Northumberland, 2014.

Lindisfarne Castle

The dry stone wall on the eastern of the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, 2014.

Lindisfarne Coastline

I wonder how many years it took for the waves to carve out the soft lines on the shoreline rock? This is on the shorefront at the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. England, 2014.

North Bay

I remember these Regency style hotels from my very early childhood during family holidays to the seaside in Scarborough. The memories were not completely clear, but our stay here on on the cliff edge of Scarborough's North Bay did seem very familiar. 2014

Scarborough Habour Pontoons

The floating pontoons in the very old Scarborough harbor. The tidal range here is very high (greater than 6 meters), which means at low tide, these yachts are very often sitting on the basin floor. Summer 2014.

Scarborouogh Harbour

A colourful sunset seen over Victorian era buildings that crowd around the hill just above the harbour. English seaside, 2014.

Scarborough Beach Front

As a boy, I used to get very excited about the South Bay promenade. 25 years later, not so much. It looks great, but little has changed in the intervening years and it definitely feels a little ragged and past its best. England. 2014.

North Sea Excursion

A ferry departs Scarborough Harbour for a day trip into the North Sea. Never done this myself, but I did go out once in a speedboat; will always remember the choppy waves as we zoomed offshore. 2014.

Yorkminster

There's a palpable medieval feel to the Yorkminster area; you can truly get why so many tourists flock to this part of England. This is Minster Yard, near the cathedral. 2014

Hadrian's Wall

The remnants of the ancient Roman border between England and Scotland, 2014. As a Scotsman, I've been subject to many jokes about my ability to cross this border - all good of course.

White Cliffs of Dover

The famous white cliffs of Dover. A magnificent vertical face of chalk that greets every sailor and traveler that crosses Channel from France to England. This was the scene as we maneuvered into Dover from Calais. 2018.

Dover Harbour

As breakwaters go, this is a fairly substantial one, which tells you all you need to know about the kind of waves that might make their way into Dover Harbour. 2018.

A old fashioned classroom at the Black Country Museum in greater Birmingham. I remember visiting Scotland Street in Glasgow and having a horsing experience. I can only image that this classroom was hell on earth for the kids. 2019.

Black Country Museum

A perfectly created main street in the Black Country Museum, complete with cobbles, a church, and even a pub! 2019.

Black Country Museum

A period hardware shop in the Black Country Museum in Dudley, England. 2019.
