“I am an author and photographer based in the Ribble Valley. I have had 4 books published by Merlin Unwin Books. These are: “The Forest of Bowland”, “Land’s End to John o’Groats”, “The Pennines, Backbone of England”, and “A String of Pearls; Landscape and Literature of the Lake District”. As a photographer I specialise in landscape and garden photography and sell prints and greetings cards of my images.” Helen Shaw
