A morbid history of St. John’s… the hill in the background is known as Gibbets Hil, it is where all the criminals were hung in public executions. The body of water at the base of the hill is where the executioner would throw the bodies when they were dead. The pond is known as “Dead Man’s Pond”. / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography / /

This may only be a shaky handheld job on my little pocket camera (fujifilm finepix a500) but is one of the three pics I’m proudest of ...ever…. and it still makes my heart lurch every time I see it! It had been six and a half hour walk in and up from sea level to that point and comprised more rock scrambling than I had ever envisaged and a heartstoppingly precarious walk along the ridge. I had carried a small tripod every step of the way but the others waiting wanted to press on with even harder descent and 4 hour return trip so I had no chance to set up…..... / :)) The view looks back over Loch Hourn into the highlands from the top of Ladhar Bheinn, or ‘hoof hill’ ‘one of the finest mountains in Scotland with narrow rocky ridges and spectacular corries’ (Scottish Mountaineering Club Guide). It is 1020m but we had scrambled up and down on the jagged ridge repeatedly so had climbed considerably more. The last snows of the winter look reassuringly solid in this pic but in fact stood proud of the mountain leaving the sheer drop visible beneath. We had sailed into knoydart the most remote penisula on the scottish mainland from Mallaig into the hamlet of Inververie which is inaccessible by road, only by sea or a demanding walk of many miles. It is graced with the fantastic Old Forge pub with superb meals and imprompu nightly ceilidhs which walkers and sailors really enjoy! Deer roamed the gardens and early next morning I got the precious shot of morning gems Looking back in an amazing place For full details see heartbeat ridge Ladhar Bheinn, in the remote scottish knoydart peninsula For an idea of scale see also hey wait for me / See all pics of this stunning area by clicking this link: knoydart

Cropped from a larger image so this is only suitable for cards. This was shot from my Sister’s front yard in Sisters, Oregon; the mountains are The Three Sisters; can you just imagine waking up to this everyday of your life? I could live with that….....

Pendle Witch Country, in the Lancashire Pennines, is an area lying between (but also including) the north western edge of Bronte Country and the Ribble Valley, to the north and north east of which are Bowland, and the south western Yorkshire Dales respectively. The area is dominated by the dark brooding mass of Pendle Hill (shown above) and made famous (nay infamous) for its grim and fiendish association with the “Witches of Pendle”...

“The air that was rushing into my lungs was icy cold. The climb to the top was slow and exhausting. I hitched my backpack over my shoulder trying to ease the weight somewhat. As we reached the summit I knew with one glance that it was all worth it….........” / Macro photograph from a rock! /

I spent a large amount of my misspent youth climbing. The Grampians is by far my favourite climbing venue with a great combination of exploration, views, adventure and the most sublime rock imaginable. This particularly superb outcrop is in the Victoria Range in the Mt Fox area which climbers call Hollywood Bowl. The climb itself is called ‘Arrows of desire’ and comes in at the modest grade of 16 although in this shot it looks way harder. The walk in is a steep 45 minute hike which on this particularly hot summers day left us very overheated and sweaty. After getting on the face the reflected heat almost overcame me, making me feel quite queasy but after a bit of a rest in the shadow of the overhang above which succeeded in lowering me elevated temperature I managed to make it to the top without any falls or rests on the rope. My good friend Deiryk took this shot. This shot was featured on the home page in Sept 2008.

.... to set up my tripod …. no way?...but rb expects…. teehee! ;)) Just adding this one for the human scale… Looking ahead at the even narrower ridge ahead where the group are hugging the contour of the hill as there is such steep 1000m drop to the right For full details see heartbeat ridge See also path just trodden

Khumbu Valley, Nepal. The North face of Ama Dablam (6812 m) in the Himalayan Mountain Range as seen from the peak of Pokalde Ri (5330 m) on the trek from Lukla to Mt. Everest Base Camp. The Tibetan Buddhist prayer flags (Lung Ta) blowing in the wind in the foreground add depth to create the breathtaking view captured in this photograph.
