Glyn Redfern

Born and raised in Buxton in the heart of the Peak District, my photography journey started when I was a teenager, my first camera was a Pentax ME Super, within a few months I had my own darkroom developing and printing my own black and white photographs using a Zenith enlarger and then followed by developing slides it was far cheaper than printing colour prints back then. I have always been into photography on and off throughout my life but my passion really started up again during the first Covid 19 Lockdown in 2020.

What Motivates Me To Get Out

My passion is taking photographs in any form but mainly landscapes and I am lucky to live in the Peak District National Park no matter what time of year it is there’s always something to photograph. I find it so rewarding when you get that picture that captures the scene, or the moment of the ever-changing environment through the seasons you really do capture a ‘moment in time’. Landscape photography for me is so enjoyable as the next time you go on a walk or take your camera on a specific expedition you just don’t know what you may capture.
