The last time I travelled to Azerbaijan, I said I wanted to see so much more. The Spring celebrations were in full swing and the capital, Baku, was about to host the Eurovision Song Contest. I had explored Baku and its vicinity, so rich in culture and history....

I must admit that I have been very nomadic in my life. Coming from Oldham in northwest England, I had a natural start with hills and mountains, but, due to both work and pleasure, I have found myself moving around. Lately, however, I have found myself more static -- well,...

Earlier this year I travelled to a place better known for sea, sand and unrest than for hiking, but what I found on Cyprus was one of the perfect place to explore on foot.

Away from the madness of the tourist traps and the crowded beaches, Cyprus reveals itself....

The FOTO8 Summershow 2012, the UK's only open-entry, annual photography show is centred around the premise that our photographs can provide compelling and powerful ways of seeing the world and create debate over what makes a great photograph.

After landing in Baku, I discovered one thing straight away: Azerbaijan is an incredibly hospitable country. This realization put a bounce in my step as I considered the days of discovery ahead.

Azerbaijan is surrounded by a diverse range of countries, from Iran in the South to Russia in the...

The beautiful Island of Sark in the Bailiwick of Guernsey, itself part of The Channel Islands, has a little neighbor just off its shore that has been hidden from the public eye for many years. The private island of Brecqhou has now been opened to the...

Iceland boasts a singular landscape punctuated by hot spas, geysers, mountains, glacial lakes and rivers.

In the summer, the sun keeps this country...

Rising over a thousand feet straight up from the flat red desert of central Australia stands Uluru, a sandstone megalith that embodies the history, mystery and culture of the Outback. To see it first hand -- I can tell you-- is a spectacular treat.

The sun spends its day...

I love my travel and I love my photography. On a personal level, I always try to experience the best of both. Seeing the world with different eyes and a renewed sense of wonder...

There are many different ways to travel and so are there many ways to explore places...

Away from the beaches, away from the pool and away from the bars. Tenerife has so much to offer those that want to get out and hike or see nature in very unique ways. All on one Spanish island. All these hikes, climbs, activities and experiences are only...

This is the latest post in our series, TwitterPowerhouses, which focuses on the contributions of people who've helped to expand, influence, and redefine how we view social networking.

Guernsey, in the English Channel, sits 30 miles from the north coast of France and 70 miles from the south coast of England, self-governing but maintaining its loyalty to the British Crown.

After spending a few days there, I quickly found out that this was a remarkable hiking...

On my last post I showed my experience of a variety of adventures during a winter visit around Norway from bottom to top. Well, another man who has been over there recently is Professor Brian Cox, who incidentally comes from the same town as me:

Norway in winter may sound cold and bland to many people but as I have found this February it is very far removed from that with a whole wealth of activity, exploration and experiences to be found there.

Thanks to a social media competition 'Norway, Your Way' by...
