Venford brook and waterfall
It’s spring, but it’s not really spring, feeling and looking like late winter, still. I have 3 hours, and point the car toward Ashburton, not knowing where I will end up. On the steep road uphill from Ashburton to Poundsgate, I find myself turning off for Holne. At Holne I find myself continuing toward Venford…

Finding Chapel La Wallen, Dartmoor
In May 2023 I published my photozine Lidwell Chapel – Images from Two Seasons. It took a long time to put this together and I’m rather proud of it. (You can still buy it from Etsy here.)

They are impressive, and there…

Autumn 2021, Dunsford Wood
The pandemic lockdown and our house move in November last year (with all that entails) prevented me from visiting Dunsford Wood for a couple of years – probably the longest I’ve stayed away. But now, happily, it’s only a 20 minute drive from our house, so I’ll be walking its paths much more often. I’m…
