Here’s the the information pack from Nigel:

“Landscape Photography – My Passion – My Therapy

In this heartfelt and inspiring presentation, Nigel Thomas shares the deeply personal journey that led him to landscape photography and how it became far more than simply taking photographs. He explains how spending time in nature helped him through some of life’s greatest challenges, bringing peace, purpose and a renewed appreciation for the world around him.

Through a collection of beautiful landscape and seascape photographs, Nigel reveals the stories behind the images, sharing both the emotions and the techniques that helped create them. Along the way, he offers practical tips, his simple approach to landscape photography, and explains how slowing down, observing and connecting with the landscape can transform both your photography and your wellbeing.

More than a talk about photography, this is a story of resilience, gratitude and personal growth. Whether you’re an experienced photographer or simply someone who loves the outdoors, you’ll leave inspired to see the landscape—and perhaps life itself—in a different way.”
