One of the best things about the adventures we’ve had outdoors taking photos is being able to explore the history of where we live. Occasionally we stumble across some amazing places and end up leaning a bit more about the places around us. This photo is taken in the grounds of a 15th Century Church, hidden by trees and not far from a main road. Most people would drive by and not even know it was there.
In the centre of the now ruined church is a large Oak tree. There is a myth that a witch with a wooden leg was buried alive and that the tree grew out of it, destroying the church. Either that or a squirrel simply forget where it buried its acorn after the church fell into disuse in the 17th Century.
Had we not found this place we wouldn’t know any of this and nor would you. I love finding out little bits of history, almost as much as sharing littlegem’s beautiful body. The vines and the height of the building make it so difficult to capture how impressive we found this place, it looked like something you’d find in an Indiana Jones movie or a Tomb Raider game.
Beautiful ?
Outstanding post. I like how you chose History as your theme and loved your commentary. And of course, then there’s Little Gem.
I would love to have been taking photos there.
Thank you, it would to great to be able to share our photography journeys with others ?
That looks like a gorgeous place! I love these explorations you go on, and the history you share with us.

? Thank you
I love that you tied history to your images. Littlegem looks like she belongs there too.
Thank you, she is certainly more comfortable to be nude in places like this now
That is so beautiful! What a gorgeousboby you have! I love the whole atmosphere!!
Thank you. It is an amazing space to be in, it was a great find
Two wonderful images. I particularly like the one in colour. As a history buff I can never get enough of our local churches. The legend of the witch and the oak tree make this one particularly fascinating. I believe it attracts a lot of ghost hunters when night has fallen.
Thank you. Well it’s good that we weren’t there at night, that would give them quite the surprise!
Now there’s a thought 🙂
Wow! I need to come visit you for so many reasons. Thank you for the amazing images and the fascinating history that went into creating them.?
Thank you. The offer’s always there ?
That place look similar to my deserted mansion. It is indeed a pleasure to take photos in areas so steeped in history and gem looks wonderful

Yes how can you not take photos ☺️
I love that second image, and it’s so nice to read about your adventures as well as being able to enjoy the beautiful images you take. And of course, thank you very much for the shout out, I’m so pleased you enjoyed my photos from last week x
You’re the queen of selfies so you’re very welcome ?. Thank you, I almost didn’t add that second image.
You always find such amazing locations . . . but this is just absolutely wonderful. And that bottom photo is just breathtaking !!!

Thank you ?
I am continually envious of the part of the world you live it. It is rich in history and clearly off the beaten track enough to be largely unspoiled apart from by nature… and then you enhance it by adding the beautiful Gem

Thank you. It is a lovely part of the world to be in ?
I love these photos so much – they’re incredible and I love how you share tales of your all adventures with us.
Thank you ?
<3 Beautiful as always, it looks like a beautiful part of the world you two live in x
Yes it certainly is, but you need to find the right places. Thank you
What a stunning location and I am always surprised how relaxed you make your images when really there must be a high risk to being spotted. This is gorgeous and I love the way that Gem blends naturally with the history around her 🙂
When we turned up there were people there so we were super cautious. Have to be eagle eyed but yes she gets more comfortable the longer we are there.
Holy moly! What a location, and I loved the history (true and folk legend)
Little Gem looks stunning. What a place to have as a backdrop to her sexy stance.
Thank you, it was a great place to find and the history was nice to read up too.
The two pictures are very beautiful! When I was a teen, I have always wanted to get married in the ruins of an old church in the UK!
That’s cool, how about a spooky night party instead? ?
You have the most amazing locations around you, I need to come and visit 😀
This one is truly spectacular!
Thank you ? wish we could be sponsored by the local tourist board. I would love people to come with us, although I’d be nervous that they’d expect me to be good.
What a magical place and such beautiful pictures
Thank you ?
Great setting and pic. Yep…it makes me want to rewatch Indian Jones! It’s got to be in there somewhere.
Indiana Jones and sexy exhibitionist ?
This is gorgeous, so atmospheric and I’m wondering where you live with this sort of scenery x
Thank you 🙂. We live in East Anglia and try to find rural spots where it is quiet for photographs.
Stunning location for a shoot and I love the story behind the place, inspired to try some outdoor shots in 2020…
Thank you, I look forward to seeing your adventures 😁. Happy to give advise if you need it.
What a great location and what a beautiful intriguing picture
Thanks, it was a lovely place to be for a while.
