- Sit back and grab a cup of coffee because it's time for another 5 Minute Photo Adventure! In this episode I head to Stowe's Hill on the edge of Bodmin Moor near Minions in Cornwall for a spot of landscape photography. With some of the most unique rock formations and tors I've ever seen, I wonder why I've never been there before.
I found out about this location by reading The Photographers Guide to Cornwall. You can learn about this great series of books in this special episode of On My Bookshelf - • The Photographer's Gui...

Glad you stood on the rocks - showed how big they were! Great photos and thank you for sharing
Thanks Lee...always good to show a bit of scale because its hard to appreciate how big some of these rock structures are. :-)
I cannot believe you have not been there before. It definitely looks like a place you should photograph. I expect you will go again for better light. And stay away from the cliff. Unless you are looking up. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Glen and yes, I will be returning! :-)
Nice video Julian. I visited Bodmin once and really enjoyed wandering around there. The rock formations don't look very big from a distance but as you climb up to them they are quite big! Now that you are aware of the location you must return another time with better conditions. Cheers, Jeff
Cheers Jeff, it's a location I want to visit again for sure. Just need those better conditions! :-)
Cornish American here. When I was visiting my cousins, we went to Bodmin Moor. We didn't stay long -- I think I remember one cousin saying that the moor was haunted and that being there frightened her.
If you can believe in ghosts in the first place, anywhere can be haunted. :-)
Hi Julian,
What a great location and fantastic rock formations.
I have got the Photographer's guide to Cornwall too as you know and guess what i haven't been to any locations yet and like you i forgot all about it.
I think it's time to get using it and going to some of the locations.
Great images as usual mate.
Cheers mate, always nice to read a comment from yourself. These books are a great source of inspiration and I must use them a bit more! :-)
Great location Julian and I really enjoyed watching. I was fascinated with the actual scale when you stood next to one of the stacks. Prior to the context of a person, the piles only looked several feet high and even with the final images!
Thanks David. Even when you are there it's hard to understand the scale....it's not until you stand under one that you realise how big they are! Thanks for watching. :-)
Julian, it looks like a location that has a lot of potential. Hopefully, the light will be better on your next visit. Thank you for sharing.
Flat light = a good reason to go back. :-)
I am hoping to go down to the Lizard later on in the year when the visitors have gone home, maybe I drop in on the way back. You made me feel so much better as I am not the only one who gets flat light. Great video. Thank you.
Thanks Nicky.....most of my trips out with the camera involve grey, flat light! lol
Love visiting the Cheesewring and The Hurlers stone circle close by.
I must go back. A location with so much potential. :-)
Glad you enjoyed the location Julian!
Thanks Ellen, always good to discover a new location!
Went on a boat holiday on the Norfolk Broads for a week with my brother and a mate way back when, it is superb mate.
So many places, and not enough time! lol
Brilliant location Julian. Thanks for the heads up about the books too 👍
No worries Dave, glad you liked it and the books are worth picking up. :-)
Cracking location Julian. Always think when the light ain't playing ball we mark it down as a reccy. Good to test out those compositions aswell. regards Alan
Cheers, always good to be out with the camera, regardless of the conditions. :-)
Cool location, some nice images Julian, I liked the second image best, but the portrait orientation image was also a nice shot. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching John! :-)
First time seeing your videos . Happy It got recommend to me. What a great location can imagine at sunrise or sunset.
Thank you for watching and welcome to my channel :-)
Julian hi another really enjoyable video. I came across Bodmin moor last year after years of holidays in Cornwall. It is a stunning place we went to hurlers stone circle and then carried on to a Rocky outcrop which was awesome you’ll love it 360 degrees view and some lovely rock features like you had. You can park in the village of minions yes that’s right minions 😀 unfortunately didn’t have my camera would have loved to have vlogged it doesn’t seem to be many videos from Bodmin. Anyway great video and some lovely photos to. Take care Trev
Cheers Trevor....I asked a local how to pronunce Minions....just in case it wasn't the way it looked! lol You are right, not many videos from Bodmin. An untapped market?!
Those rock formations really are interesting! I didn't realise how big they were at first! Shame about the flat light but I think the images you captured are great. Really like that first image at 4:34.
Thanks so much Courtney. I was pretty happy with the compositions and it gives me a good excuse the return. :-)
Well you know I can vouch for Norfolk mate, well worth a trip 👍
If only I knew someone there who could guide me around? lol
Hi Jules: Another great video. Between you and Thomas Heaton, Ellen Bowness is getting lots of visibility for her books. I am trying to find these books via a Canadian distributor. It is always nice to find a new location to explore that has the potential for some great images. Cheers, Keith
Thanks Keith....I guess they aren't available from Amazon Canada? You can always stock up next year when you are over. :-)
True enough. We have a contact name at the actual distributor in the UK so I will likely reach out to them directly. My wife likes having the books well in advance for planning purposes. Cheers, Keith
Cracking site. I didn't get the scale until you stood in front of it. I'm sure you'll be back.
I'll be back. :-)

Great video Julian, a couple of awesome shots there mate. Looks like a fantastic location. I can vouch for those books, I used some of them to prioritise my trip when I visited the UK years ago!
Cheers mate, always nice to read a comment from yourself. Maybe you'll be able to make a trip back here soon...and vice versa for myself. :-)
Looks a great location Julian shame you did not get some evening light on those Rocks, but still i liked the images you got.
Thanks John, I'm looking forward to going back to see what I can really make of this great location. :-)
Such interesting structures Julian. A return visit is definitely warranted when the light improves.
Oh yes, I'll be returning for sure! :-)
Looks like a great spot, couldn’t quite believe how big it was when you stood in front of it! Shame about the flat light… maybe next time 🤞🏻
It's a big one for sure! I'm looking forward to going back. :-)
