Ilfracombe Devon

From my base near Woolacombe the seaside town of Ilfracombe was not far away and looked like an interesting walk and scout around.

Woolacombe to Morte Point Devon

According to a tourist guide I read in my cottage, the best beach in the area was Woolacombe sands and only a few miles away.  I was heading to Woolacombe my second day in north Devon and the weather was getting worse.

Croyde Bay North Devon

From Folkestone in Kent, it was a long drive to Croyde Bay in North Devon, my next destination.  The plan was to work my way down the coast into Cornwall all the way to Lands End.

The White Cliffs Of Dover

Being in Folkestone, not far away along the Kent coast was Dover and the famous white cliffs.  Given a break in the winter weather I really wanted to do the walk along the White Cliffs of Dover.

Elham Valley Kent

One good thing with being on a road trip, staying in a hotel, you are more motivated to get outside rain or shine.  The rain and clouds had returned with a vengeance, after a break of one day along the north downs.  Based in Folkestone,  I decided to take a trip inland to the Elham Valley.

Folkestone North Downs Way

When in Folkestone, you can’t help notice the surrounding backdrop of the North downs hills.  There was a break in the gloomy winter weather, it was going to be a sunny day, blues skies and a gentle breeze.  I was heading up those hills of the North Downs Way.

The Warren Folkestone Kent

I began my roadtrip in the south east of the UK at Folkestone in Kent.  I have friends living there I could visit and the hotels were cheap.   Folkestone is also good for walks and landscape photography with some dramatic coastline heading to the Warren and the Kent and North downs as a great backdrop.

Worth Forest West Sussex

A winter walk through Worth Forest

Before starting my road trip proper, I needed to return to my home town of Crawley in West Sussex from Hastings.  I would be in the area for a few days and intended to do some walks while there with Worth Forest looking like a good location due to the cloudy overcast and stormy weather.

Back in Hastings East Sussex

I’m back! from outer space.  After completing my works contract in Hastings I did some travelling abroad from September until end of November.  So I missed all those autumn colours.  I returned to Hastings end of November and was looking forward to getting back into some landscape photography around the UK through the winter months.

Winter Landscape Photography East Sussex Kent

From December 2017 into the new year I went on many walks around East Sussex and Kent and took many landscape photographs during the winter months. Not all the locations I visited from winter into spring 2018 produced enough content for a post on their own, but individually I took some photographs I would like to share and are worthy of a mention.  What follows is a compilation of winter landscape photography around the south east from December 2017 to March 2018.

Best Month Landscape Photography 2017

I compiled my best landscape photography for each month for 2016 so here is a new compilation for 2017.  In 2017 I was out each month with my camera and moved from Worcestershire to Dorset and then to East Sussex.  Again, think of it like a calendar.

One bright winters morning in December decided to return to Hastings Country Park parking up along Fairlight road and carrying on the walk where I left off my last visit here and to continue to the Fire Hills overlooking Fairlight.
