Skiing Gallery

Recently returned from a week in the French Alps where I was on skis for the first time in far too long. Aside from the skiing, blue skies, excellent company and perfect photography conditions the high point of the week was the Gorzderette. Now in its 5th year it is a competition comprising of several events, including cross country skiing, pulling a straw laden luge, negotiating a mountaineering style obstacle course and climbing on the impressive Tour de Glace. See the Skiing Gallery

Ben Nevis Gallery

The north face of Ben NevisTwo days camping at the base of the North Face of Ben Nevis was an excellent way to get to know this unique mountain environment.

To celebrate the place I've put together a small Ben Nevis Gallery...

Brocken Spectre Gallery

After a bumper haul of Brocken Spectres over the last few days I've put together a specific Brocken Spectre gallery.

In case you've not seen them before a Brocken Spectre is a meteorological phenomenon caused by the sun shining your shadow onto a cloud. The rainbow ring is called a Glorie.
