Mark Littlejohn (MarkLJ) is a talented photographer whose love for nature and hiking has taken him on a photographic journey! A tribute to his inner love for the Scottish and Northern English landscape, Mark’s images are packed with emotion, soft-toned and dreamy, picture perfect in every detail! Below are but a few of Mark’s breathtaking images! You can’t help but be inspired!

I’m a Scot who has lived on the edge of the English Lake District for nearly 20 years and have been a keen fell walker for some time. During the cold spell in early 2010 I saw some amazing views and decided that maybe photography might be a nice hobby. Bought a wee Pentax K-X in February 2010 and started taking pictures during my hikes. Fairly soon the photography began to rival the walking as the reason for going out on the fells. By October last year I was going out purely to take photographs with my favourite location being Ullswater. I’ve started to play more with long exposures as I like the effects on the colour at dawn and dusk. I’m not sure I’ve settled down into the type of images I want but I know I’m not bothered if I leave reality behind. I intend to go part time at work over the next few months which will hopefully allow me more time to pursue my hobby. I just love being out there at Dawn and dusk watching the colours changing hue and trying to capture those moments is a wonderful challenge.

I wish I’d taken it up many years ago.
