The Secret Tunnel
This last weekend we went to a place i have not been to in years, i remember this form my chidhood, it was known as the bat cave then, it was full of bats, i didnt see any when i went back. This is in the woods at Rockley, South Yorkshire, this has not changed at all apart from the bars that prevent you from goin in!
The Secret Tunnel belongs to the following groups:
Moody, Dark, Evocative (no nudes) and United Kingdom Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints and Framed Prints

Wow this is something out of a Johnny Depp movie or Harry Potter – eerily evil forest, and that gnarled tree on the right! Whatever work up you did was brilliant – highlighting the light on the bars, the fading of the sky to there’s no distraction from the focus. Wooded images are usually so hard to work with. Everything very cluttered with the mess of light on leaves and forest floor etc. This is pure art and pure magic. Brilliantly done.
