Mark Denton's distinctive photography reveals some of the finest-ever wide-lens images of the Lakes, a landscape of great scenic beauty and one of the UK's most popular holiday destinations. His panoramic views, from rare angles and often taken at the magic hours of dusk and dawn, capture the atmosphere of wilderness that attracts so many visitors. Here are undulating valleys, clear lakes, tarns and rivers and, on the heights, the steep, sharp ridges and peaks, including Scafell Pike, Helvellyn and Skiddaw. The photographs offer a richly saturated new interpretation of the region's most recognizable landmarks in a highly desirable souvenir volume.
Mark Denton is from Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, and brings a unique perspective to the photographing of London. Specializing in the panoramic format, he takes his inspiration from British photographers such as Joe Cornish and Colin Prior. Cameras used are principally the Fuji G617 Professional and Mamiya M645.
'One of Britain's finest young landscape photographers... it is the light that makes the photographs so special.' York Press
