A late night scene of the "Squinty Bridge " in Glasgow. To get this photograph I was standing on another bridge which bounced up and down as people walked over.

If you go off the beaten track in North Wales, out on the moors, or in the mountain areas, you'll often find these old abandoned cottages. This particular one is on Denbigh Moor, in the middle of nowhere.

Sometimes I like to play around in Photoshop. This was taken as a photograph in Liverpool, where else. Then some work to get it to look like this.

Combine an exceptionally high tide, with storm force winds and you've a chance the sea defences may be broken, as happened here. In colour is didn't look as dramatic as #monochrome and I think this is a good candidate for #blueskyartshow

Portrait of my dog on the beach in #monochrome fits nicely the theme #BlueSkyArtShow

On the far the side of Llyn Y Dywarchen (lake) in North Wales stands this lonely tree growing out of almost flattened ruins of an old abandoned cottage

Managed to catch this field of new mown hay at sunset before all the rolls were moved the following day

It's not a real bird, instead it's a wooden model, photographed and combined with some textures to give an artistic look

Talacre lighthouse in North Wales has long since been disused. When the tide goes out you can walk around the lighthouse easily
