I am a country bumpkin. I grew up in the heart of the Peak District, surrounded by the gritstone edges and the endless purple moors.

I am at my happiest when I am roaming through woodland or scrambling up rock. I’ve made a pledge to take my camera with me and try and capture what makes this place so magical.

This is an ongoing project and I have no idea when I could ever say it was “done”.

I’m going to add to this collection as regularly as I can and try to, across the years, ensure I capture the diversity and breadth of beauty available to those with a good pair of boots and a knack for getting lost.

From dark peak to white, here’s my attempt at capturing some of it.
