Villager Jim, the famous Peak District photographer, takes us on a journey to his very favourite places on the moors surrounding the Peak District National Park, where he lives. From wonderful wild deer to breathtaking buzzards and other birds of prey, Jim allows us a glimpse of his daily moorland travels with all the abundant wildlife that lives in that part of the world. Jim often concedes that it is his most favourite place on earth, being out alone with his camera within this unforgiving landscape, watching the sun rise on the horizon, whilst at the same time, seeing stags wander, grazing on the moorland. It is here also that many of his favourite birds of prey abound. And, of course, he is there to capture the beautiful landscape shots rolling in mists or washed in the golden light of dawn.

This book is a joyful celebration of all creatures great and small that Wildlife Jim and counters every day in the Peak District. Deer, horses, lambs, owls and foxes are just some of the animals showcased here. You may not be able to travel to the Moore’s of England, but this beautiful book of photographs is as close as you can get without actually being there. A pure delight

The Moorland book focuses on the animal world out on the Peak District National Park. There is a wide breadth of subjects from pheasants to lambs to hares and deer. The photographs are extremely skillful and very beautiful. Jim labels each photograph with either a short description or a short witty caption.

This is the second collection of photographs by Villager Jim published by Pen and Sword - this man has a natural affinity with the natural world that encourages the animals he encounters to "pose" for him and his amazing camera work. A superb look at life in Villager Jim's back yard and surrounding countryside. The photographs are amazing!
