Peak District
Reader 1Brian Wakeling
Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
Location: SurreyKeen amateur photographer Brian mainly shoots landscapes,
wildlife and sport. A Canon user since the days of film, his EOS 5D
Mk III is used with a combination of Canon and Sigma lenses, but
for taking photos when out kayaking, Brian prefers an Olympus
Tough TG-5. Although most of his photography takes place on
family holidays rather than on dedicated photography outings,
Brian will visit India later this year to photograph tigers. He’s also
the photographer for his son’s Downs Syndrome football team,
the Fulham Badgers, and regularly posts on Photocrowd.

Camera: Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II
Location: The WirralTravel is one of Nigel’s main interests, so taking up photography
was an ideal way of documenting his holiday memories. Touring
in a campervan means that he needs a light but versatile camera
solution while on the road: he found it in the form factors of the
Olympus OM-D E-M10 and a M.Zuiko 14-150mm lens. It all means
not having to lug heavy gear on long walks, whether this is in the
Swiss Alps, the Spanish Pyrenees or the Canadian Rockies. Away
from landscapes, Nigel enjoys photographing animals, and would
like to go on a safari to capture them in their natural habitats.
