I took this photograph on Ilkey Moor last week or, more accurately, I was on Rombald’s Moor, standing on the border between Ilkley Moor and Burley Moor. Ilkley Moor is in public ownership, purchased by Ilkley Local Board in 1893. Burley Moor is in private ownership. You can still walk across Bruley Moor, though occasionally there are some slightly unfriendly signs with a list of things you can’t do.

This post (the one in the picture) lies pretty much on the boundary, which is also marked by an old stone boundary marker and more recent bright yellow painted wooden posts that describe a sculptural line across the moor.

I like these interventions in the landscape. Not necessarily for what they represent, or the history that they tell, but the way they can help you to see the landscape differently. Helping you to see and not just to look.

I was also very consciously mimicking the work of the Italian artist Luigi Ghirri in framing this shot.
