Some early morning visits to Bempton cliffs produced some beautiful lighting on the seabirds that nest there. The gannets particularly are wonderful photographic subjects and the amazing light allowed me to add to my series of chiaroscuro and bokeh images.
This is part of a large ongoing project to photograph the habitats I regularly visit in Yorkshire, and a few surrounding counties, to show the flora and fauna found in these ecosystems throughout the year. These include farmland, meadows, riverbanks, moorland, woodland, and coastal cliffs.
Some photos from some East Yorkshire meadowland in June.

There were some beautiful Banded demoiselle damselflies in the riverside meadows of the Derwent, catching the mayflies.
I also had some fun with multiple exposures of the meadow flowers.
I’ve been working on various projects over the last few months, including themed photographs, and more creative photography ideas.

These are a few of the photos I’ve taken from moorland days out:
I also love working with backlighting and have been experimenting with taking multiple exposure photos:
Lark ascending
I loved silhouetting this skylark against the sunlit sky as it rose up above me, but also tried combining several photos in a multiple exposure shot against the light, which shows the beautiful feathers, and the movement of the bird:
This is a multiple exposure of the cottongrass, blowing in the wind, and again backlit by the low sun. Below is a backlit photo of a snipe, taken early morning on the North Yorkshire Moors.
Some photos from a recent visit to some beautiful bluebell woods here in Yorkshire.
