This site was founded in the year 2000 to showcase my photography. The subject matter is natural history, travel and landscape photography. The majority of the work is photography of China. There is a small section covering my homeland of Scotland.
I have been living in China since the begining of 2006. In the time since then, I have taken the opportunity to travel the lenth and breadth of China. The country, China, is a vast land of varied landscapes and cities. I have tried to document here the veriety that can be found in China. Both rural and urban China are covered. I have included many famous and historic places from China but also, within the gallery, are some unique and little known sights that few westerners have seen. Although China has opened up to foreign travel and more and more tourists come here, the country still has a air of mystic about it. Few people venture far from the main tourist sites. Much of the interier and the north east of China remain little known to the west. Accompaning the photographs, I have included detailed descriptions such that the reader might come to better understand China. I have also provided links to other websites that may prove interesting should you wish to research deaper into the subject of these photographs.
This web site is intended for your pleasure and entertainment only. We do not try to sell you anything. However if you do want to use or obtain a print of any of the pictures please contact me at derek@stylegallery.co.uk
