"celebrating the landscapes of the British Isles through photography"
National Parks (UK and Republic of Ireland)
The UK has fifteen National Parks; ten in England, three in Wales and two in Scotland and we adore them all for their own unique beauty. From the water of the Lake District and the Broads to the mountains of the Cairngorms and Peak District and all the different landscapes between, all of the national parks are protected to ensure their beauty lives on for future generations to enjoy.
The Republic of Ireland has six national parks. The first park created in Ireland is Killarney found in Kerry county in 1932, and since then five more national parks have been created and the most recent ones being Ballycroy in Mayo county.

Long Crags - Northumberland
Long Crags is a prominent isolated rock outcrop situated to the east and south of Hedgehope Hill and Cheviot. They were formed by metamorphic changes to the volcanic lavas caused by the eruption of a mass of molten rock from the Cheviot and Hedgehope volcanoes some 400 million years ago. This eventually cooled to form the granite which comprises the central part of the Cheviot massive. This part is today typically covered by heather within a surrounding area of andesite larvas.
