Hi, I’m John Kitching,

In my spare time I try to take photos of our amazing local wildlife in New Mills, Peak District, Derbyshire, England. Here in the North of England, it is often cold, damp overcast and gloomy, with rare moments of sunshine.

If you stop, quietly, and listen, you can hear all sorts of wildlife around you, that many people don’t notice. The tricky thing is to then try to see it. Even harder to get it on camera.

I also have an instagram page https://www.instagram.com/newmillswildlifephotography/

Quite a few local people ask to see my photos but don’t use Instagram or social media, so I have put this website together so you can see the photos without the risk of doom scrolling and spiralling inescapable algorythms. Just sharing nature. No other motivation.

Hope you enjoy.

John
