Brimham Rocks


Over 300 millions years ago a vast river brought grit and sand from the north leaving a delta spreading over a vast area of Yorkshire.This along with rock crystals and quartz combined to make a tough sandstone now called Millstone Grit.It is these exposed areas that are now know as Brimham rocks.Once described as a "Druidical monuments" many over the years have been christened with elaborate names such as Dancing Bear,Sphinx,Eagle,Turtle,Anvil,as have some locations have been given names such as Lovers Leap.In 1792 Lord Grantley built Brimham House as he put it "For the accommodation of persons who's curiosity might prompt them to visit this world of wonders"

I did some HDR on this and worked on the sky and I thought the finished result looked like an old wild west photograph ot painting

It does look wild west-ish but it also looks like the pics you got on the old Victorian post cards. A bit like the set on the Sherlock Holmes and the Hound of the Baskervilles movie too.

Wow, that's awesome, and it does have that 'vintage' feel to it.
