<strong>North</strong><br />
“Knaves and foul weather come out of the <strong>North</strong>”<br />
Devon Proverb quoted by Ted Hughes<br />
The idea of the <strong>North</strong> may conjure up thoughts of a cold, dark, bleak and empty<br />
landscape. Yet there are several designated “Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty”<br />
in <strong>North</strong>ern England. These areas can lack the sublime wildness found in certain<br />
more rugged places, but on the other hand, neither do they possess the gentle<br />
pastoral idyll of the Southern English countryside. The landscape can appear stuck<br />
between these two extremes. Even in the most isolated locations the hand of Man is<br />
very much in evidence. Photography may be thought of as producing an objective<br />
record of the landscape, but in fact images are very much shaped by our<br />
preconceptions and concept of beauty. By taking photographs we not only explore<br />
the land, but also the actions of others and our own thoughts.<br />
