  • the angel of the north, reworked from an earlier image, i liked the way the people stood around gave the scale of this wonderful piece of art

  • I haven’t been out much lately as my little girl has been poorly (so sorry if i missed some of your work) however, yesterday i NEEDED to get out with my camera and luckily i didn’t have to go too far. This is the iconic Angel of the North – you can see it driving on the A1 – it is such a powerful symbol and awesome to see.

  • I was watching these lads when I was at the Angel – there were three of them – one is rolling down the hill at the moment. The were having great fun, pushing each other over, fighting etc then for split second they stopped and just stood and looked – there was something very gentle about the way they did it. Despite the bravado you could see something of a real friendship between them.

  • Collaboration with Andy Mueller This is one of the areas that inspired me to try my hand at photography. Who can complain of an hour drive to work with views like this? Converted to HDR and post processed by fellow Bubbler Andy Mueller. Thanks Andy! Check out Andy’s work here I am overwhelmed by the response to this shot. To the point of unable to reply a thank you individually. I will check out your work and leave a comment there:) Thank you ALL for your kind comments:)...and taking the time to scroll down to add them. Much appreciated. For the fans who like straight out the camera shots… /

  • For David Parkin / I now love the angel just as much as you and I can totally understand the adoration you have. / I saw the Angel up close for the very first time today and I was dumbstruck. It is believed to be the largest angel sculpture in the world. / It is one of the most viewed pieces of art in the world – seen by more than one person every second, 90,000 every day or 33 million every year. / It is one of the most famous artworks in the region – almost two thirds of people in the North East had already heard of the Angel of the North before it was built. / Its 54 metre (175 foot) wingspan is bigger than a Boeing 757 or 767 jet and almost the same as a Jumbo jet. / It is 20 metres (65 feet) high – the height of a five storey building or four double decker buses. / It weighs 200 tonnes – the body 100 tonnes and the wings 50 tonnes each. / There is enough steel in it to make 16 double decker buses or four Chieftain tanks. / It will last for more than 100 years. / It will withstand winds of more than 100 miles per hour. / Below the sculpture, massive concrete piles 20 metres deep will anchor it to the solid rock beneath.

  • The Angel of the North probably one of the most photographed works of public art in the north of England if not the country as a whole. I felt it required a fresh view and as Easter was fast approaching and the word Angel being Hebrew for messenger I thought an artistic take would be to re-create the crucifixion scene for a modern day audience. This is three images combined to make this scene.

  • This was a stop the car, turn around…and take a moment to enjoy what Mother Nature had given us. I loved the fog hanging around behind the barn. Captured this am on the way to work in Moyock, NC.

  • A collection of photographs from the wonderful North East of England And Cumbria

  • My first experimental use of my new WACOM Bamboo board and wow is there a learning curve, but then this only took me like an hour to draw and then filter and mod so no complaining.

  • An Iron statute just outside Newcastle, the Angel of the North stands with wings outstreached on the top of a hillock. An impressive and magnificent modern statue.

  • Dinner got delayed once again… I couldn’t resist the colors outside my window. Captured with Nikon D50

  • Sometimes it pays to live in a small town… where the neighbors call you to tell you when visitors are in your yard. I have chased this guy down a while. Guess the neighbors have seen my unsuccessful attempts.. and helped me out on this foggy raining day. shot captured on Bell’s Island, North Carolina. Had enough / the fly away /

  • Nikon D50 / Tamron 28- 300 lens This little tree just doesnt seem to grow much but yet it always appears to be standing so tall and proud of its home. Most times the water is ver near the limbs as he is not quite tall enough to clear the water line most days. I have named him my Little Warrior… Im gonna keep my eye on him:)

  • Captured at a local causeway… another morning that I was glad to have the camera beside me. Straight out the camera, No adjustments.

  • This is a shot using the Angel of the North in Gateshead as a backdrop. The rainclouds can be seen in the sky and the wind was blowing strong, hence the blurring caused by the grasses and yet this single seed was about to take to the air on a journey of discovery, well unless it landed in some garden somewhere lol. Image converted into a Holga/film effect

  • I’m thrilled to bits to be able to share my little part of earth…

  • Featured in Core [C O R E] 16th Nov 2009 / Featured in Nirvana 1 image per day) 16th Nov 2009 / .... Camera = Canon 350D / Lens = Canon 18-55 Here is a shot I took of our very famouse North East England landmark, the Angel of the North. I live only about 5 miles away and have many, many shots of this. This one, which I shot at dusk, has always been a favourite of mine. I have it printed and framed and hanging on a wall at home, it looks great (in my opinion) :-)

  • Featured in OUTSIDE THE BOX Nov 30th 2009 Using a 300mm lens I zoomed in close onto the head of the magnificent Angel of the North statue. I decided to do this one in Black & White. Camera used – Canon 350D / Lens used – Canon 75-300 If you are unfamiliar with the Angel of the North please see my other photographs, links below :-) / one / two / three Thank you :-)
