New: Unlock complete year-by-year photo collections back to the beginning, forever

Hello and welcome to the Naked Ant Shop, won't you come inside?

Patreon has unlocked a feature I've wanted forever...

Where did you first spot me?

You're an awesome bunch of patreons here and I thank you so much for your support. Something I'm always curious about myself... where did you first see me, or which place made you head over here an...

Get a Naked Peek - for free!

This is a post for my "free" followers and new visitors to my page.

Patreon won't allow nudity in publicly viewable posts, so I've created a brand new membership tier to give even mo...

New: Naked Collections

Patreon recently added a new feature called "Collections" — basically a way to organise your posts into albums — and I've now finished setting it up for my naked work. It wasn't too difficult, ...

Rambling rambling buds

I liked this cheeky, confident stance. Naked rambling is brilliant however you do it, but wandering with another human in the same state of undress is totally life-affirming.

Over hills and fields

The openness, the freedom, the blue skies, the green. One of my absolute favourites, this!

Over hills and fields

One of my favourite relaxed shots, against the tall stone wall which I need to cross in a moment with the stile. As the highest part of the route, I can see for miles around and right along the foo...

Peak freedom

Looking back over the landscape. The huge chunks of rock thrown onto this bridleway made it much harder going than it should've been.

Peak freedom

It certainly felt daring to be on such a large, wide path in late morning, but this does always seem to be the quieter side of Kinder. And another thing - it’s so wonderfully quiet that you’d h...

Where did you discover me?

I’ve been sharing the link to my Patreon photography in a few places, so I’m intrigued to know, where did you find me? Interesting to know what works and what doesn’t. ☺️

The edge of spring

Sometimes self timer and automatic focus can throw up unexpected compositions you wouldn't have otherwise planned. I like how the raw grain of the stone here makes everything look so real, like yes...

Camera confidence

It wouldn’t take much for a golfer to take a bad shot and come looking for their ball in the trees, only to be rather surprised about who‘s hiding behind the leaf cover … insert your own ball...

Camera confidence

The natural world around us is our greatest ally;  we need to look after it.

Daytime dares

Of this brief moment in the outdoors between us, this probably best captures that liberating feeling of just wearing what you feel like, as I stride along casually chatting away about something or ...

Summer waters

No matter how many times I return to this field, the sunrise has never bettered that very first misty dawn. Here at least, the hay bales add new interest. I would've gone in for a close-up if there...

Scouting the source

Yes, THE picture! You don't want to know how many attempts this took with the self timer and getting myself back and forth over the uneven rocks at the bottom of the pool, but eventually I got it. ...

Scouting the source

On a day as scorching as this, enjoying the rolling green landscape of the Peak District free of clothes is a truly heavenly joy.

The hairless wonder

Striding confidently around this blind bend between the wooded pathway and an open meadow, well-used by dog walkers, never ceases to excite. Doing so with the trademark nudist look of being smooth ...

Millponds and paths

Naked rambler on the loose! After a while exploring the area around the millpond, I felt confident enough to briefly venture onto the public footpath running alongside for the obligatory stile phot...

Along the way

I think most naked ramblers like to gently allow other people to see them enjoying their pastime, to normalise it. At each pair of gates along this cycle path, the farm crossing has little offshoot...

Lantern cross

Between jumping out of my clothes, walking and snapping photos, I need to make I just stop and breathe in the view and my naked state a bit more.

Lantern cross

The first trigpoint of many, many more to come...

Lantern cross

Once the walker had disappeared, I did it — bagged my first naked trigpoint!

Before the dawn

When you're dealing with a tricky contrast of light like this, the rear view always seems to turn out better, as a near-silhouette of the naked form. I was really pleased how this one turned out, w...

Blackgang

You never forget your first time on a nudist beach. This one isn’t, as such, but it’s fantastically secluded down a long, tricky cliff path which erodes bad changes every year. Getting down the...

Spring greens

At one end the woods slope down into a brook with a gentle stream and a footpath on the other side. Sat here, hidden, amongst the undisturbed fallen ochre leaves several inches thick, feels like a ...

Spring greens

There's something therapeutic about being alone in the woods taking photos, like quietly pulling weeds or sorting your record collection. Set up the camera, self timer 10 seconds, back and forth, s...

Stark impatience

One of the greatest challenges for the naked rambler is channeling that frenzied anticipation that descends as the warmer season begins, with all its fits and starts, and simply having the pati...
