The walk up to Corrin's Folly on Peel Hill offers amazing views on the way down. Switch from the left to right of the hill as you return for a variety of delightful images and vistas.

Peel Castle captured from the opposite harbour wall. A polarising filter helps on a calm day.

Dramatic sunsets never fail to impress over Peel Castle. This image is capture from the main breakwater, with the fishing fleet to the fore.

The end of the promenade shot. Walk as far North as you can along the sea front. Drop down the adjacent steps and tread carefully amongst the rocks. I always prefer a foreground interest in my landscape images and here, I have included the foreground rocks. A tripod, neutral density filter and a long exposure will always bring a good result.
