Join award-winning photographer, Mark Littlejohn, on his journey from ‘reactive’ to ‘creative’ and see how an old dog can learn new tricks!
When Mark first started landscape photography, he lived near the Eden Valley and the Lake District – both well-known areas of outstanding natural beauty.
He admits to just wandering around, pointing his camera in the general direction of all that beauty and pressing the shutter release every now and then.
People loved his images and would call him creative. But he always denied this, saying “I’m not a creative. I’m a reactive”.
He says this was because he reacted to the beauty around him. He’d never had to look for it. It was just there.
But when he moved to another outstanding area of beauty, in the highlands of Scotland, he was not taking the same pictures.
He was focussing on small scenes of reeds and kelp.
Had he become creative? Had it been possible to teach an old dog new tricks?
Mark is an award-winning photographer based in Wester Ross, Scotland. His work has been featured in a variety of national magazines and he has also written several articles in relation to landscape photography and his distinctive approach to the genre.
