Photographed on a farm near Trawden, Lancashire, UK, using a Nikon D90 camera and processed with Nikon Capture NX2.

A young swan (Cygnet) photographed on the Leeds-Liverpool canal at Brierfield in the North-West of England. I recently sold some of my auto-focus lenses and replaced them with manual-focus "prime" lenses.....this photograph was taken with one of them, a Samyang 135mm f2.0 lens. All current Samyang lenses are manual focus and they produce excellent results for a fraction of the price of an equivalent "branded" lens. Camera: Nikon D300s Lens: Samyang 135mm f2.0 Processing: Nikon Capture NX2.

Another view (see previous photo) of a miniature Shetland pony photographed on a small farm near Burnley, Lancashire, in the North-West of England. These animals are not much bigger than a large dog such as an Alsatian (A.K.A. "German shepherd"). Photographed with a Sony RX100 compact camera and processed with Nikon Capture NX2 software.

A Car covered in "Witchgrass", a type of artificial grass made of monofilaments. Camera: Nikon D300s. Lens Nikkor 16-85mm.

The famous "Rose" window in the South transept of York Minster. The minster has a wide Decorated Gothic nave and chapter house, a Perpendicular Gothic choir and Early English North & South transepts. The nave contains the West Window, constructed in 1338. Over the Lady Chapel in the East end is the Great East Window (finished in 1408), the largest expanse of medieval stained glass in the world. In the North transept is the Five Sisters Window, each lancet being over 16 metres (52 ft) high. The South transept contains the famous rose window while the West Window contains a heart-shaped design, colloquially known as 'The Heart of Yorkshire'. (Wikipedia)

Photographed in Victoria Park near Nelson, North-West England. This carved wooden figure is one of a series of sculptures along the children's "Witches Trail" which runs through the park. Photographed with a Sony RX100 camera and processed with Nikon Capture NX2.

One of the many mosaics constructed 16 years ago to commemorate the Millennium and placed along the banks of the Leeds-Liverpool canal near Brierfield in North-West England. Each one depicts different scenes from this area's past.....this one shows (from top to bottom) Cotton mills which were until quite recently the dominant industry in this area; The coming of the railway; Agricultural scenes and one of the horse-drawn canal boats which were used during the 18th & 19th century to bring American cotton from the ports of Liverpool and Manchester to be woven into cloth. Photographed with a Nikon D300s camera + Samyang 8mm fisheye lens and processed with Nikon Capture NX2.
