Travelling extensively throughout the United Kingdom his collection of photographs is constantly growing. As a landscape photographer Nigel strongly believes that to greatly increase our appreciation of the regions we need to study it’s history and the parts that have been played by the hands of nature and of man to mould the land to what we see today. A man proud of his Yorkshire roots Nigel is enthusiastic about his subject - a passion which reflects throughout his work.
