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.

Montpelier Parade, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England

Montpelier Parade in Harrogate reminded me of Edinburgh when I first saw it, although I am not so sure nowadays. It dates from the 1860's and is home to some of Harrogate's finest shops: I have always wondered what Sotheby's is doing here! This is the view towards Parliament Street and, in winter, the cenotaph can be seen when it is not hidden by leafy trees.
