Images from the early part of the 2011 deer rut at Calke Abbey on the Derbyshire/Leicestershire border.

This gallery contains some of my most creative images. A few (particularly Belper East Mill) have some creative treatment with photoshop, mostly being just creatively toned - such as the Jungfraufirn glacier and Lumsdale waterfall. However the rest (the vast majority) are not Photoshop creations, but are just more creative than most images in the way that they use the available light, angles, subject, composition, time or lens-based effect such as zoom, long exposure, motion.

Images of people. These images are mostly travel images from across the world - images of outdoor activities are elsewhere in specific walking, cycling, climbing etc galleries.

Underwater images, mostly taken with 2 external underwater flashguns on a Canon G9 compact camera. Most images are from the Poor Knights Islands (New Zealand) or Australia.

Images of watersports - including kayaking, windsurfing, fell races crossing streams.
