Secrets of the Wiltshire Landscape Photography Tour

‘Here is the heart of our Island... The fibres of England unite in Wiltshire’. Novelist EM Forster made a good point. Wiltshire’s landscape encompasses quintessential scenes, the best of both southern and south-west England. The county has rolling chalk hills, exquisite Cotswold villages, England’s greatest landscape garden and quirky white horses, together with the world’s largest and most famous stone circles at Avebury and Stonehenge. There is much to delight the photographer here. Yet compared to other parts of the West Country, most of Wiltshire remains relatively little known. On this tour I will share its secrets.
