John
Eastwood - Photographer

The Artist
John Eastwood
is a Photographic Artist from Stockport who specialises in landscapes
of Cheshire, Derbyshire and the Staffordshire Moorlands, seeking
always the more imaginative perspective. Avoiding the safe,
established postcard clichés so often seen John combines
imagination with an indefinable sense of place, crafting each
image by featuring the texture of the landscape accentuated
by season and natural light, always using a fresh and individual
eye.
John is the official photographer of All Saints Church,
Daresbury, Cheshire and exhibits across the region at commercial
exhibitions and County/Country Shows. He was commissioned by
Halton Borough Council to design the 2005 Civic Christmas Card.
Of his work, John says:
"Images
of the landscape have fascinated me from a young age. Not
the stereotypical sweeping vistas of the rolling hills and
plains, but the more subtle details that lay hidden within,
waiting to be discovered or found.
Sometimes this can be done using the passage of time and the
effect of weathering on the fabric of the landscape, at other
times it can be achieved using seasonal variations or a change
in light due to weather conditions."
