Landscape Photography by Nigel Danson
Profile

I started photography when I was 11 years old and fell in love with it. Although, my first results left a lot to be desired. What really got me interested was processing B&W films. I was intrigued by darkroom process and the magic of seeing the pictures come out of nowhere onto the photographic paper. Many hours were spent in the attic of my parents house in the semi-dark!

All my photos are now taken digitally - and even though the versatility of digital is so much greater I do miss the satisfaction of the darkroom.

My passion is taking photos of landscapes and I have been fortunate enough to travel to many fantastic places - with my all time favourite being Iceland. I find it so rewarding when you get that picture that captures the weather, or the ever changing state of the environment. You really do capture a 'moment in time'. Landscape photography is so enjoyable to me as the next time you go on a walk or take your camera on a specific expedition you just don't know what you may capture.
