New adventure, new blog!

Next week I will be entering a new phase of my life, quitting my job to spend time travelling and photographing the world! I'll be documenting this trip on my new blog www.amytravelsblog.wordpress.com.

This means I'm moving out of Derby, so I thought I would share a few photos taken from around Derbyshire.

Camping in the Peak District

One nice Friday afternoon, when I had no internet so had nothing better to do, I took a spur of the moment trip to the Peak District.Taking just my bike, tent and some basic camera equipment I found a remote camp-site near Lathkill Dale to pitch up my little blue tent.

A river I came across while in search for a campsite

My tent, set up on the edge of a farmers field near Lathkill Dale

Felt like I should stick to the animal theme a little with this curious cow
