Born and bred in London, as soon as I could toddle I was dragged up large chunks of the Lake District by parents who were avid walkers. This education clearly worked because I caught the bug. Since my twenties I have been avidly walking, climbing and exploring the area, which for me is the most beautiful corner of England.

When not standing on top of something pointing a camera, I am studying for a PhD in London..

Lake District Desktops was started in September 2003 to share my love of the Lake District with the internet community. All of our photographs, maps, walks and other resources are provided entirely free of charge. I hope that you enjoy them.
