The Photographers Guide to Cornwall

I first read about Stowe’s Hill when I got a book called The Photographers Guide to Cornwall. In fact, I picked up the entire series of The Photographers Guide books and filmed a special episode of On My Bookshelf all about them. You can see that episode right here.

From the Cornwall book, I selected to go to Rough Tor for the episode of On My Bookshelf, but I made a note that I must try and photograph Stowe’s Hill at some point. Unfortunately, Stowe’s Hill fell down the priority list and I eventually forgot about it. That was until I got my copy of The Photographers Guide to The Norfolk Coast and Broads.

As well as being inspired to go to Norfolk, I remembered the Cornwall book and that I had yet to visit Stowe’s Hill. Given that the long summer days were giving me plenty of opportunities to travel a little further afield I decided to jump in the car and make (the very pleasant) journey to Bodmin Moor to film one of my 5 Minute Photo Adventures!

You can see how I got on below.

Stowe’s Hill Landscape Photographs

It was a bit of a shame that the light was a bit flat. I can see how this location might come to life in the right light. I want to return to Stowe’s Hill soon and I hope these photographs will inspire you to visit Bodmin Moor. I think I’ve been missing out!

I hope you enjoyed the video and photographs. Let me know in the comments below what your favourite Bodmin Moor locations.
