Shap Rural
The Shap Rural civil parish surrounds the village of Shap on the far eastern edge of the Lake District. Dispite it's close proximity to junction 39 of the M6 motorway, it is an area that is overlooked by the vast majority of visitors to the national park. This project aims to showcase the unique beauty of the area and to encourage people to explore this forgotten corner of Cumbria for themselves.
"Inspired by a quote by Ansel Adams, I set out to capture '12 significant photographs' of the area around the village where I live. Each month is represented in the final 12, showing how the landscape changes with the seasons."
