A Wanderer's Photo Gallery
One of the things that gets me exploring Britain and Ireland is the prospect of bringing away some pleasing photos of my own making with me. Not only has that fostered the growth of an interest in hillwalking and cycling but it also has driven me to further the photography itself. All that has created the library of images from which the collections that you find here have been drawn.

Winnat's Pass, Castleton, Derbyshire, England

Winnat's Pass, Castleton, Derbyshire, England

This is now the only road approach to Castleton from the west. However, there was another, the A625, but that had to be abandoned following a major landslip on the side of Mam Tor, the result of which is still very visible today. This has one benefit, though, that being the chance to enjoy a very unique landscape. This itself is a result of Winnat's Pass being the site of a coral reef aeons ago, before it got elevated from the sea bed. Above is the eastern view from the pass with Win Hill appearing in the background.
