The distinctive umbrellas on Playa Grande in Puerto del Carmen, Lanzarote.

Central Park Walk

This is a particular favourite of mine. A wintery looking Central Park in New York with a dusting of snow that adds some real atmosphere. I also applied a slight HDR effect which has resulted in the almost painting like appearance.

Central Park Snow

Another image of Central Park in New York (see here for a different view). The covering of snow and broken clouds created some excellent light/dark contrast.

Beyond The Flatiron Building

Taken at dusk from the top of the Empire State Building. The Flatiron Building is in the foreground and the Manhattan Financial District stretches out behind. The view looking the other way is here.

New York, New York

Taken from the top of the Empire State building at dusk. The Chrysler Building is prominent as Manhattan can be seen lighting up. There was just enough light left in the sky to make the photo. The view looking the opposite way is here.

Haworth Allotment

Dim light across a frozen allotment in Haworth, West Yorkshire, UK. A slight HDR treatment on this one.

Beach Walkers

Kids walking on a deserted Morecambe Beach, UK on a very windy day. This seaside image was taken on the same day.

Silhouette outline of the hills and lights on Oban Harbour, Scotland. Taken from the window of the Royal Hotel Oban.

Guernsey Castle

Steve — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 00:00:38 +0000

Sunrise at the back of Guernsey Castle. St Peter Port on Guernsey gets some of the best sunrises I have seen. This was one of the first photographs I took having taken up the hobby.

Settle Yorkshire Dales

View across Settle town in the Yorkshire Dales, UK. A brief break in the clouds and rain produced some good contrast in the view.
