I've just come back from a trip to Holland with my sons football team, that's why I've not posted for a few days. This shot was taken on the site we were using as our base.

Up hill climb

Prev | Home | Next



We passed this guy as he was peddling up towards High Cliff. It looked like very hard work as he passed, legs going 13 to the dozen, as he inched forward.

Joe

There is quite a bit of graffiti chiselled into the rocks at the base of High Cliff. Hope Joe was worth it, as it must have taken quite a while to carve this work of art.

High cliff

Prev | Home | Next



On our walk around Guisborough we eventually made our way to High Cliff. Surprisingly, even though we've lived in Guisborough for about 20 years, this was the first time we had actually walked up to High Cliff.

Prom night

Prev | Home | Next



Last night was prom night for my daughter and the rest of year 11. This is a shot of all the female classmates that attended the prom and their form teacher. They all seemed to have a great evening, as they arrived in stretch limo's, stretch hummers, a horse drawn carriage, a fire engine, and in my daughters case, a vintage rolls-royce. There was nothing like this when we left school!

House

As you walk towards Hutton village you pass this house on your left. It's a fascinating house, to me anyway. It looks like it belongs in a fairy tale, in fact I half expect a big bad wolf to come around the corner!

While walking towards Hutton village I spotted this owl, carved into a tree in somebody's garden.

Roof tops

I love the way the hills seem to tower over and dwarf the roof tops of the houses.

Old roof

Prev | Home | Next



The first of two images about roof tops I took while having a walk around Guisborough. I love these old ramshackle tile roofs that are found amongst other things on barns. This one appears to have lost a few tiles already, and the tiles on the edge, remind me of those machines in games arcades in seaside resorts, where you drop your coin in and try to make it push the coins overhanging the edge, your way.

As a companion to yesterdays shot, leaves are starting to develop now on most trees around.

Seeds

The next series of images will probably be from a walk around the hills near my home. Even though most of the trees are getting their new foliage, there are still some thst are bare with just seeds for company.
