I have been over the wall and on the other side in snow in December and January 2017 but I think the wall must have been repaired since then. <br />Thanks.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02089084152125372432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2368660231689988246.post-64365923627320923822015-04-13T12:38:17.769+00:002015-04-13T12:38:17.769+00:00Hi - glad you found it useful.

I have added the coordinates of the 2 parking spots to the end of my blog post as others might find them of use (the coordinates are inserted as a screen shot from bing.com/maps (ordnance survey option - which is very very useful for people like me to plan walks. If you are searching on maps yourself - search for Ingleton, Yorkshire and you should be able to find the spots to the north of Ingleton.Stuart Hodgsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16496033348199313539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2368660231689988246.post-48943385569697915712015-04-11T17:17:26.747+00:002015-04-11T17:17:26.747+00:00Hi Stuart! Great blog. Really helpful.
We were t...Hi Stuart! Great blog. Really helpful. <br /><br />We were there 2 months ago (we’re photographers from Tenerife). We took the long walk up. It took us almost 3 hours to get there. We’re going again in May, with other spanish photographers and will certainly use your helpful information to get there in time for dawn (that’s what we wanted last time). <br /><br />If you have them, could you post the coordinates to both the parking spots you recommend, so as to not get lost, as we are not familiar with the area, and our GPS didn’t help too much last time we were there.

My faves tend to be in the golden hour - just before or after sunrise/sunset - so you've got to either sacrifice a bit of sleep to get up early - or walk down in the dark - I've done both a few times - and looking back - the sacrifice is definitely worth it if you get some stunning pics :-)<br /><br />I know what you mean with the blog and other peoples photos - on one hand you are really impressed with what people capture and the places they see - then a little bit of you wishes you had similar photos in your own collection. I tend though just use other peoples images as inspiration - try and learn from them and analyse whats good about them - and try and become a better photographer because of it. What i do do though is whenever I come across a landscape that just looks an amazing place - I try and find out where it was and add is the list of places I would love to see and photograph. It's a big list - but I've got a lifetime to do it - keeps me inspired and motivated and looking forward to visiting new places - and I guess I never want to get to the point where I have been & photographed everywhere I want to go (and revisit) because if that tiem come it would be time to put away the camera :-( As for where the photos are taken - most are in the Uk I think - but there are others from around the world. If one pic catches your eye - try and follow up that particular photographers website and no doubt you will find the photo/location you like. One place I come across recently that I would love to visit/photograph is from Elgol on the Isle of Skye - looking towards the Cullin Range. If you google elgol - you will find some stunning photos and stunning landscapes :-) It's high on my list to visit nowStuart Hodgsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16496033348199313539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2368660231689988246.post-90720957409110799392012-08-17T21:52:59.523+00:002012-08-17T21:52:59.523+00:00Outstanding picture there... incredible light and ...Outstanding picture there... incredible light and composition.

Amazing how much the weather conditions change the atmosphere of the place - I hope to go up again whenever I'm in the area and get some moodier shots. Glad the blog post helped you out - i couldn't find much information on twistleton walks/routes before I visited - so thought i'd share a quick route for the photographers amongst us :)<br /><br />Here is a link to another blog of mine - which shows a couple of photos which inspired me to visit the place - no doubt lots more brilliant pics of twistleton kicking about - its a very photogenic place<br />http://nature-landscape-photography.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/yorkshire-dales-landscape-photography.htmlStuart Hodgsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16496033348199313539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2368660231689988246.post-55816418503736974232012-08-10T22:56:48.007+00:002012-08-10T22:56:48.007+00:00Thank you Stuart!!
