'The office' from a photographers perspective.

 

We're currently doing a bit of work with a wildlife photographer (Matthew Marran) getting him access to some lofty vantage points. Mewp at this stage, but potentialy via rope access later in the year

 

Matt took this at sunset last week toward the City of London from across the tree tops of Hampstead Heath.

Needs to be seen expanded to really appreciate it.

Cheers mate, kind of you to say, but Matt and his equipment are several levels above my eye and hard wear.

 

I wish someone had inspired me to have chosen a career in photography twenty years ago.

 

Working around trees does give us a great natural eye for a good shot set up though don't it !

Agent Arb and I went to the launch of Matt Marran's stunning new book yesterday which is jam packed with images taken over 4 years across the seasons on Hampstead Heath.

An absolute pleasure to have played a small part in helping Matt acheive his goal, by getting him access to being at height for some of his images and for showing him some of our great trees and fungi.

 

Here's a small selection of some of the images across near 200 pages of what is a very fine book.

Last image is Matt's shear relief at coming to the end of an epic photographic journey.

I learnt loads about photography along the way and owe Matt a debt of gratitude.

 

Can't recommend this book highly enough.

 

Even if you don't know of Hampstead Heath, it portrays the natural cycles here in London's urban countryside brilliantly, and is a really nice book for anyone who appreciates the natural world
