Nigel A. Ibbotson is a writer and award-winning photographer with almost 30 years’ experience behind him. Published in numerous magazines, catalogues and brochures, Nigel is passionate about producing images of the highest quality. His greatest interest is for landscape photography, not only of his local West Yorkshire but the British Isles as a whole. It was this interest that convinced Nigel to give up the hustle and bustle of commercial photography. As a landscape photographer Nigel strongly believes that to greatly increase our appreciation of the regions we need to study their history and the parts that have been played by the hands of nature and man to mould the land to what we see today.
