Alun is a landscape photographer from South Wales. A native Welshman we struggle to understand him sometimes but luckily his photography speaks for itself. He derives his inspiration from the coast, rivers, lakes and mountains of his native Wales and the beauty and variety of the UK’s landscape throughout the seasons.
If anyone knows how to capture the beauty and magnificence of wales, it’s Alun.
“I am fortunate to live in such a stunning part of the UK. The mountains, lakes, and the coast of Wales are unique and I am proud to be able to represent them in my work”.
His work has featured in four editions of the ‘Take a View, Landscape Photographer of the Year’ book and has appeared in various magazines and publications.
We first came across Alun in the dark at that famous tree in Wales that needs no mention. A Canon full frame shooter of many years, his current setup includes a 5DS but also what he describes as ‘mirrorless marvels’ – the EOS R and Nikon Z7.
“The technological advances of these cameras and associated lenses, combined with the quality and versatility of the NiSi filters system, make the process of capturing the landscape even more intuitive and enjoyable.”
His charm, enthusiasm for photography, and artistic ability really does show in the quality of his outstanding images. Alun manages to capture the beauty of the location and the mood to transport the viewer there. And he is an exceptional presenter for talks. Just make sure someone is near the microphone to pull the plug.
