Welcome to the Stu Brown Photography Blog, sharing stories and photography from Saltburn-by-the-Sea, the North Yorkshire coast, and the Cleveland Way.
Here you’ll find field notes from landscape and wildlife shoots, updates from my photography workshops, and insights into working along one of the most dramatic stretches of coastline in the North East of England.
I spend most of my time outdoors — watching the tides, the weather, and the changing light across the moors and cliffs. This blog is a place to share those moments: coastal landscapes at sunrise, wildlife encounters around Saltburn and the North Yorkshire Moors, and the quiet details that make this coastline so special.
Whether you’re here to discover new locations, improve your photography, join a workshop, or simply enjoy the view — I hope these stories bring you a little closer to the landscape.
Marsden Rock | Landscape Photographer
The afternoon light bathed Marsden Rock in a golden hue, casting long shadows across the rugged coastline. With my camera in hand, I set out to capture its grandeur, feeling the gentle breeze carry the salty scent of the sea.
Marsden Rock | Landscape Photography
The wind was biting, the air crisp and fresh. It was a cold evening at Marsden Rock, where nature's rugged beauty awaited my lens. As a landscape photographer, I thrive on the challenges and rewards of capturing the essence of such remarkable locations, no matter the weather.
