If you're not on FB ... not really much use to you π
Heating on tonight - am on the moor tomorrow - not sure if this will interest you at some point ... www.facebook.com/groups/17034...
Fernworthy Forest on #Dartmoor yesterday
After yesterday, I'm rather upset π₯Ά
FREE - On Wednesday 13th May I'm doing a Dartmoor Preservation Association Partner Walk π
I'll be guiding a group around the Haytor area and passing on a little of what I've learnt about shooting Natural Light Portraits π

Higher Tor on #Dartmoor in the mist last week - at least it wasn't raining π€£
possibly ... I'll not get my trowel yet π€£
I wrote an article about the brilliant Paul Rendell - #Dartmoor guide, author, historian and storyteller π

It turns out that apparently it might be part of a broken down Stone Row π I asked Alan Endacott about it and he says he found it about 20 years ago while looking for a Stone Row mentioned by Worth in the area!
DISCOVERING DARTMOOR - A Fresh Perspective
With Dartmoor Guide Paul Rendell and Paul Harris (That's me!)
I'm joining forces with Paul Rendell (Dartmoor Paul) to run several of these (more routes to be announced) ... For details please contact Paul through his website

That's what I thought when I stood on it to rest π€£ You can only see how big it is when the bracken has died back ... I expect it's just a big rock ... but fun to speculate π
I'm off out to the area on Saturday with Max Piper (to interview him) but also to show him a big piece of granite I stumbled across a few years ago π dartefacts.co.uk/dartefact/po...
It's really cool - and the one at Irishman's Wall ... which I must have walked by 100's of times without realising π
It should be approached carefully ... it's not all bad - but especially closer to Steeperton Tor, you want to watch your step π Below Metheral Hill is where Alan Endacott has discovered a "new" stone circle ... glavindstrachan.com/blog/alan-en...

If you've never watched an episode of the The Dartmoor Podcast (*not a podcast) ... get yourself over to YouTube and sit back and enjoy the dulcet tones of your guide, George.
Back in August I went for a walk on #Dartmoor with Helen the Communications Officer from @dpadartmoor.bsky.social to shoot some fairy tale influenced images to illustrate the amazing "Wild Words" anthology she is curating π Check it out here : dartmoorpreservation.co.uk/wild-words/
We're very pleased to announce that our Wild Words project is now listed on the #Exeter Unesco City of #Literature website, under their literary projects section.
It's testament to the quality & inspiring nature of the work submitted.

Metheral Stone Circle - fb.watch/DaOWWpEGrL/
That's what I was looking for ... I'd been there on a guided walk with Alan Endacott (the guy who discovered it) in September and went back to check out a theory I had (which of course had zero legs π€£)
thank you .. in between the downpours - the light was amazing π
Wonderful skies on Taw Marsh on #Dartmoor last week π
According to the fantastic Dartefacts (dartefacts.co.uk) ... this is Eylesbarrow Stamping/Smelting Mill No.2 om #Dartmoor (I'm not arguing) this is the first time I've visited the ruins of the Eylesbarrow Tin Mine and it will definitely be getting a second visit π Splendid day out ππ·
So, what's the opinion of the logo?
Mentioned this before, budget for this project is zero ...
Come on, comments please ... I'm just prodding algorithms in an attempt to make this idea work π
