  • One of the most spectacular views in the Peak District of Derbyshire, England. I love standing on the cliffs looking out over Hope Valley. I used to live and work just down the road from here. These cliffs have been used as the location for a number of films including Pride and Prejudice, and Jane Eyre. There is such a calm about the place.

  • This was taken on one of the many walks in the Derbyshire Peak District. I really like how the trees blanket over the path in a very protective way. I also like the worn path recalling the many people who have travelled along its way. This is so reminiscent of the old period novels and the roads they travelled. I expect to see Mr Darcy riding up the path. LOL! Canon EOS-1Ds Mark ll / f/6.3 / 1/160 / ISO 100

  • Castleton is a honeypot village in the Derbyshire Peak District, in England. The village lies at the western end of the Hope Valley, on the Peakshole Water, a tributary of the River Noe. Featured in the Derbyshire UK group SEP 2009.

  • This stream works its way through the narrow valley into the rivers of Hope Valley in the Peak District, Derbyshire, between Chesterfield and Baslow. The streams are born out of the heavy rains which fall on the nearby moors, so the level of the water varies depending on which season it is. I just love the feel of this shot.

  • This is a photo of Calver Bridge on the River Derwent, in Derbyshire’s Peak District. This is one of the most beautiful bridges I have ever visited. On the other side of the bridge is an old Mill house which has been converted to a dwelling. The nature walks around this area are wonderful. It is a place for the whole family to enjoy.

  • The village of Ilam has been a place of pilgrimage for hundreds of years now. This is because of a tomb which lies in the church grounds. The tomb belongs to St Bertram who was originally a Saxon prince of Mercia and who travelled to Ireland in order to marry an Irish princess. On their journey back to Merica, she had a child. Whilst traveling through this area they rested in the forest and Bertram went off to find food. Upon his return he found that his wife and child had been attacked and killed by wolves. He was broken hearted and lived out the rest of his days around the area as a hermit. The church once was the centre of the village, but now sits apart because of Jesse Watts Russel who moved the village in order to improve the view from his hall he built here in the 1820’s.

  • BEST VIEW LARGE / Magpie Mine Nr Sheldon Derbyshire. UK. / / The Old Magpie Mine is just South of Sheldon, was one of the most famous lead mines in the Peak District and is the only one with a significant part of its building still standing, having been taken into the care of the Peak District Mines Historical Society in 1962. The mine buildings can be seen from the Bakewell – Chelmorton road. / The mine is at the junction of the Magpie vein, the Bole vein and the Butts vein, and was only one of several mines exploiting these veins – the Red Soil Mine and the Maypitts mine lay within only a few hundred metres of the Magpie. The mine is first recorded in 1795, though the workings are probably much older. It finally ceased operations in 1958, though the working in the 1950s mined little actual lead. The heyday of the mine was in the mid 19th Century.

  • On a recent weekend trip to Derbyshire, a friend and I were staying at a Youth Hostile in Eyam, know as the ‘Plague Village’, situated in the Peak District, England. The village is steeped in history, the name Eyam means water and refers to the stream of water flowing almost hidden under and around the village. As we made our way down to the village we stopped across the road to photograph this beautiful and very old barn. The textures of this lovely building give it so much character. I would have to guess that this barn is 150 to 200 years old, and perhaps older. It stands above the village with a gorgeous view of the valley below.

I also used iPhoto to make minor adjustments. Canon EOS-1Ds Mark ll / 28-300mm IS zoom lens / f/11 / 1/8, 1/13, 1/20, 1/30 / ISO 100

  • Padley Gorge is a deep but narrow valley in the Peak District, Derbyshire. The gorge itself is woodland with a stream, the Burbage Brook.

  • Some time back, my friend Ted spent a weekend in the Derbyshire Peak District photographing the natural and manmade beauty of the area, which brings hundreds of thousands of tourists each year. They are mostly walkers and hikers who love walking the narrow paths and roads. One of the most beautiful parts for me is Monsal Dale, with the river Wye running through the heart of the dale and this magnificent structure, the viaduct. It’s proper name is the Headstone viaduct as it follows immediately after the 533-yard (487 m) Headstone Tunnel. Built by Midland Railway in 1863, it provided safe passage for the trains travelling north from Great Longstone, and although considered beautiful and elegant now and even having a preservation order put upon it in the 1970’s, it was considered an unwelcome intrusion and as destroying the beauty of the dale when it was first erected. Unused any longer, the viaduct has acquired the name Monsal Dale Viaduct, and is part of the Monsal Trail, it stands as a monument to Victorian engineering, and it is a listed structure, meaning it is protected. The beautiful landscape has now grown around the structure and taken it in as part of the landscape, calling it one of its own. I love the reflections of the trees and the bridge in the still and quiet waters of the Wye.

  • This photo is straight from the camera. As Is Whilst out with my friend and fellow Redbubbler Jason Connolly photographing the Derwent reservoir in Derbysire’s Peak District, England, we spent a lengthy time photographing Derwent dam and the surrounding area. We also spotted this lovely out flow of water into the Derwent reservoir. This water comes from the Ashop river which runs through Snake Valley. This stream is part of that river, making its way through the mountain from the river on the other side through this water way tunnel and then out into the Derwent. There is a dam 10 ft. dam on the river side which is still in partial use, although the river is allowed to continue on to the Ladybower reservoir as well. The concrete table here creates this beautiful cascade of water. Canon EOS-1Ds Mark ll / 28-300mm IS zoom lens / f/22 / Shutter speed: 2.5 seconds / ISO 125

  • Fellow Redbubbler Jason Connolly and myself met up a few weeks back and spent the day at Derwent Reservoir in Derbyshire’s Peak District National Park. / _“It was during the 19th century Industrial Revolution and urbanisation period that a huge demand for water in the industrial cities of the East Midlands and South Yorkshire, and it was the proximity of Sheffield and its neighbours to the Upper Derwent valley that was the deciding factor in the decision to dam the valley to create the Howden and Derwent dams. The Gothic design of the dam creates a wonderful atmosphere here in the woods, and is a lovely marriage of nature and industrial engineering.

  • This is the front of Derwent dam (almost identical to Howden dam) that Jason Connolly and myself spent time at photographing as well as the surrounding area. Our day at Derwent Reservoir in Derbyshire’s Peak District National Park was wonderful and enjoyable despite the dull weather above. We were both taken with the lovely neo-gothic design of this early 20th century dam. The dam is solid masonry, “and was begun in 1902, a year after Howden reservoir was started, and proved a mammoth task. The huge stones that formed the walls of the dam were carried along a specially created railway from the quarries at Grindleford (a nearby village). Over 1,000 workers lived in a specially constructed self-contained town called Birchinlee, or “Tin Town. (Derwent) reservoir was first begun to be filled in November 1914 (95 years ago), and overflowed for the first time in January 1916, with the water almost immediately passing into supply. The dam can support a total of 9.64 million cubic metres of water.” / (information taken from Wikipedia.) This is a HDR image combining 6 bracketed shots using Photomatix Pro for Macs.
