62 Breathtaking Photos Of Unique Places Across The UK And Europe Captured By Tom Dobinson
Travel photography has a special way of making distant places feel both cinematic and strangely familiar. In this selection of images by Tom Dobinson, also known as @lens_time on Instagram, readers are invited to explore dramatic coastlines, historic streets, mountain views, and striking landmarks captured across the United Kingdom and beyond. His portfolio spans everything from atmospheric corners of England, Wales, and Scotland to memorable scenes from France, Italy, Belgium, and Germany, with each photo highlighting the character, mood, and visual charm of a place.
What makes Dobinson’s work so engaging is the way he balances grand scenery with a strong eye for composition, light, and detail. Some images feel sweeping and adventurous, while others turn quiet architecture or familiar landscapes into something almost storybook-like. Together, they create a collection that celebrates the beauty of travel and the many unforgettable moments waiting to be discovered along the way.
Scroll down, enjoy the journey, and don’t forget to vote for your favorite images. Of course, if you want to check out Tom’s other work, you can do so on his Instagram page.

Eglwys Cwyfan (Church in the Sea), Anglesey, Wales
Forrest Hobbs 1 week ago (edited)
This is St Cwyfan's Church, dedicated to St Kevin/Cwyfan (aka eglwys bach y mor - the little church of the sea. 'Kevin' is the English spelling of Cwyfan. I really should start learning Cyrmraeg, shouldn't I?). Founded in the 12th century, most of the walls are 14th century. It was built on a small peninsula which was eroded leaving an island, although a causeway was built to allow parishioners continuing access. The sea wall was built in the 1890s, by which time the church was no longer in use. Controversy erupted here in 1766 when the bishop of Bangor appointed Dr Thomas Bowles as the local parish priest. He spoke no Welsh, and only five of the 500 parishioners understood English. For the end of that tale, follow the link, posted next. 😉

Wikipedia tells me that 'Dinas Brân has been variously translated as the "crow's fortress" or "fortress of Brân", with Brân as the name of an individual or of a nearby stream'. Arguments continue, apparently. Link follows.

The Radcliffe Camera is the round building in view. I think the vantage point is the university church.

Tŵr Mawr = big tower. Ynys Llanddwyn = (very roughly) Island of the Church of (St.) Dwynwen. Anglesey is English for Ynys Môn. 😉

Stunning photography! I really appreciate seeing different angles of very iconic, familiar places. It seems like we see the same images all the time so its wonderful to see them from the different perspective of a gifted photographer.
