For the past 3 years or so I’ve been looking to capture various Landscape Photographs from Hodge Close Quarry on the outskirts of Coniston.<\/p>\n

I feel I have the images in mind and past shoots have been successful in terms of identifying compositions I find appealing. Last year in fact I feel I captured some of the best Landscape images from Hodge Close I ever have after a year long idea and wait for he right conditions.<\/p>\n

Now I have double the resolutions power from last year in terms of new camera equipment I am keen to retake some of the shots that appeal most from last year.<\/p>\n

This visit was with a family member who had never even heard of Hodge Close let alone visited so I decided to show him around as part of my Monitoring of the conditions for the images I have in mind for the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

Here’s what I captured.<\/p>\n

The Vast expanse never fails to amaze…<\/p>\n

Autumn is here at Hodge Close Quarry.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Silver Birch everywhere.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Textures of the Slate Quarry<\/p>\n

Climbers braving the Quarry walls.<\/p>\n

Heather hanging on the edge.<\/p>\n
