  • The rocky coastline is at Dinas Head in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Seen from high up on the cliff top as a late sun plays across the grasses and sandstone headland. At 463 feet in height, the Dinas Head cliffs provide excellent views across Fishguard Bay to the south and Newport Bay to the north. The Pembrokeshire Coast Path is the first National Trail in Wales. Opened in 1970, the path is almost entirely contained within the boundaries of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park that takes in 17 Sites of Scientific Interest (SSSI), two nature reserves, and Wales' only marine nature reserve. The cliff tops offer wonderful expanses of wildflowers in Spring (April and May are best). Wide variety of birds nest along the cliffs, and grey seals can often be seen in the water below.

  • In fine, late-summer weather, an eleven year-old girl gingerly steps over a stile on the coastal path at Carregwastad Point, near Strumble Head, Pembrokeshire, Wales. Steadying herself with a walking pole, she climbs over wearing trainers rather than stout walking boots as this path is gentle for younger outdoor enthusiasts.

  • An elderly-looking couple sail away into the distance on the Norfolk Broads at Potter Heigham, Norfolk, England. With a large red sail hoisted on a slow breeze, the sailors progress at a sedate pace past reed beds in one of the National Nature Reserves (NNR) designated by Natural England as key places for wildlife and natural features in England. The Broads are a network of mostly navigable rivers and lakes in the English counties of Norfolk and Suffolk. The total area is 303 square kilometres (117 sq mi), most of which is in Norfolk, with over 200 kilometres (120 mi) of navigable waterways. There are seven rivers and 63 broads, mostly less than 4 metres (13 ft) deep. Thirteen broads are generally open to navigation, with a further three having navigable channels.

  • As an early sun rises, the twin stacks of Richborough cooling Towers make silhouettes against the golden morning light. Now decommissioned, these industrial giants of the landscape are sending clouds of steam vapour into the air, in the county of Kent. Nature can be seen competing with 20th Century technology as solar energy is seen against the war power being generated. From 1962-1971 Richborough burned coal from collieries. In 1971 the station was converted to burn oil. Too costly to run plant underwent trials on an experimental fuel called Orimulsion, a cheap heavy oil and water-based emulsion produced form natural bitumen from Venezuela. Initial results or trials suggested it would make a cheap clean fuel alternative to oil but high sulphur emissions from the plant caused nearby Acid Rain and after local protest, the site has since been derelict.

  • Rotting in the undergrowth near the harbour at Newport, Pembrokeshire, North-east Wales, lies an old rowing boat. The timbers are succumbing to the weather and tidal waters of the River Nevern and the boat is barely afloat in the waterlogged terrain. Weeds and other vegetation is gradually overtaking its integrity and its wooden frame is host to an abundance of plant and wildlife. It can no longer serve as a vessel of the river as it is a wreck that nature is reclaiming and soon to hide completely from view.

  • The outline of electricity cables stretch across a gloomy winter sky in woodland near Wrington, North Somerset England. Diagonally, the cables travel across the picture but they are part of a line of L6 pylons that have already crossed many miles of South-West England's countryside, carrying 40,000 Volts along this network of aluminium cables to power some of Bristol's high supply demands. In the foreground we see the bare boughs and branches of trees creating a Sci-Fi scene of ugly 21st technology versus the beauty of nature. Insatiable appetites for raw power and energy means electricity is now an expensive comodity after climbing oil prices doubled electricity utility bills for some domestic users.

  • On a busy Summer weekend, families enjoy the old Tarr Steps Clapper Bridge over the River Barle in Exmoor National Park, Devon, England. Crossing on the huge stone prehistoric slabs which weigh up to 5 tons apiece, children play with fishing nets, walk dogs and sit enjoying the view below of others who mess about in a small inflatable dinghy on the flowing stream. Located in a National Nature Reserve about 2.5 miles (4 km) south east of Withypool and 4 miles (6 km) north west of Dulverton, this spot is a favourite tourist place in South-West England. This typical clapper bridge construction may date to around 1000 BC. It is 180 feet (55 m) long and has 17 spans and designated by English Heritage as a grade I listed building.

  • Examples of bird wildlife to be found after the extensive conservation project at Barton Broad in the Norfolk Broads. The information board shows us the species and kinds of birdlife thriving in this wetland, a region of east Anglia known for its important natural habitats after decades of neglect. Birds such as Coot, Mallard, Moorhen, Tern and Grebe are all surviving thanks to investment and a commitment to protect native species. Barton Broad is the largest Broad in the Ant Valley. It is a man-made landscape impacted by natural processes - the open water is a result of flooded peat diggings. The fen habitat around Barton Broad contributes to the largest fenland expanse in the UK and contains rare vegetation.

  • Seen from a hillside opposite, with the clear blue backdrop of the snow-covered Himalayan mountain peaks, a Nepalese family crouch on the hilltop to rest during a family walk from their community village near Gorkha, Central Nepal. In the middle of the picture, a young girl twirls and dances across the clearing as her parents and siblings watch, drawfed by the powerfully- dominant range of natural features that form part of the highest altitudes on earth although Gorkha is only 3281 feet (about 1000 meters) above sea level. These peoples' homes cling to the sides of impressive mountains that draw tens of thousands of travellers to this region to trek the paths and conservation sanctuaries of this fast-developing Buddhist and Hindu Kingdom.

  • A young deer lies dead beside a busy highway on a road near Fairchild Air Force Base, Spokane, Washington State. Very recently run-over but seemingly unharmed, this animal has head injuries and died immediately from a collision with a passing vehicle, such as this heavy articulated lorry which blurrs past this location. This is forested area and the deer's natural habitat but too often wildlife in its natural surroundings violently meets the modern human environment and the animal comes of worst. As a result of the death, the roadkill was taken by members of a US Air Force survival course at their nearby facility and so it formed an unscheduled extra lesson in preparing venison for the pot that night (see Corbis image entitled 'US Air Force survival instructors with recent roadkill').

We see the sun shining through pine trees and long shadows stretching through the fresh grass where camping seats and a camp-fire is billowing clouds of smoke, just like in the days of cowboys and indians. The holidaymakers are staying in 17 acres of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, experiencing the peace and tranquillity of tipi and yurt camping in their own private, secluded valley - an ever-increasingly popular holiday adventure that is both green and carbon neutral since they are not using electricity for heating or cars to travel. It is also a stress-free lifestyle, away from the pressures of work and urban life, where travellers can unwind safe in the knowledge they are helping the environment.

  • Lone lady walker beneath Stanage Edge gritstone cliffs, Peak District National Park, Derbyshire..Located in the Peak District National Park in England Stanage Edge is the largest of the gritstone edges that overlook Hathersage in Derbyshire. Stanage Edge at approximately 4 miles in length and 458m at its highest point is the largest of the gritstone cliffs that overlook Hathersage, Derbyshire. The area is one of the most popular locations in the Peak District National Park for climbing and walking with hundreds of rock climbing routes to challenge all ranges of ability. Walkers are drawn to the area to enjoy the varied moorland scenery with stunning views across the surrounding countryside including Hathersage, Castleton and the 'Shivering Mountain', Mam Tor in the west. A walk along the edge is an easy route but the exposed cliff can make conditions difficult throughout the year as it is often battered by wind, rain and regular snowfall in the winter months. There are a number of popular walks including routes along the remains of a Roman Road and towards Redmires Reservoir to the east as well as longer walks such as those including the nearby Longshaw Estate.

  • Activists' banners in Sydenham Hill Woods against the proposed felling of two 100+ year-old oak trees, threatened by Southwark Council because of their proximity to 'Pissarro's' footbridge whose renovation has been deemed necessary by the local authority, on 11th November 2020, in London, England. The Nunhead to Crystal Palace (High Level) railway once passed through the Wood and Impressionist artist  Camille Pissarro (1830–1903) famously painted a railway landscape from the bridge in the 1870s. Sydenham Hill Wood forms part of the largest remaining tract of the old Great North Wood, a vast area of worked coppices and wooded commons that once stretched across south London. The habitat is home to more than 200 species of trees and plants as well as rare fungi, insects, birds and woodland mammals.

  • A young boy directs his radio-controlled boat on the still waters of the river Thames early in the morning, on 14th July 1999, in Dorchester, England. The River Thames is the second longest river in the United Kingdom and the longest river entirely in England (215 miles or 346 km long). It rises at Thames Head in Gloucestershire, and flows into the North Sea at the Thames Estuary. Historically the Thames was only so-named downstream of the village; upstream it is named the Isis, and Ordnance Survey maps continue to label the river as "River Thames or Isis" until Dorchester.
