NEW Lake District Mugs

By | Uncategorised | No Comments

My NEW #lakedistrict mugs are now in stock. Inspired by some of the wildlife I see walking on the fells if I’m lucky. I see the Common buzzard most days and its numbers are thriving after the persecution of the 60s and 70s. The famous Red squirrel is sadly a rare treat these days unless your in a squirrel hotspot. Numbers are in serious decline in the UK and there is talk it could disappear in a generation which is devastating. #NotJustLakes #theplacetobe #lp #redsquirrel

Ian Lawson – Harris Tweed

By | Uncategorised | No Comments

I dropped into this great exhibition by Ian Lawson this week at Rheged, Penrith. His past projects have centered around the mighty Herdwick sheep and the Lake District this time he has teamed up with Harris Tweed to give us a sublime taste of the outer Hebrides. This guy probably has my dream job shooting landscapes and people with a hasselblad camera. The images are truly spectacular to the point were the actually look more like art than a photograph, no easy feat. A hasselblad camera will set you back the price of mid range sports car to a deposit on a house, but the images reflect the price I guess!! Printing them on aluminium also adds a graphic feel to them which I like.  The exhibition is free and well worth a visit if in Cumbria this weekend. #lakedistrict #harristweed #mountains #cumbria
