Third of my e-zines is 'Plato's Cave' - an exploration of the real and the illusory, the contrast between the natural world and the one we have made. issuu.com/printedland/... #photozine

Next is 'Penumbra' - a zine very much rooted in place, exploring the timelessness of a small Cumbrian valley. issuu.com/printedland/... #photozines

While we're all waiting for Storm Agnes to hit, a reminder that I have some free e-zines available on the Issuu platform. First up: 'Sanctuary' - an exploration of the desire for open spaces, the feeling of being in wild landscape and the search for peace. issuu.com/printedland/...

Ladies and Gentlemen, please be upstanding for @dalesr.bsky.social Welcome, we've been expecting you......
