Michael Lynch Pictures from his corner of the world!....is how he describes his photographs. Walking the Downs and other areas of the Rother Valley he carefully spies photographic opportunities. Not using a digital camera, his photographs are taken with his collection of second hand film cameras. He gets the negatives developed at Peak Imaging, thereafter he scans them and usually makes some adjustments in Photoshop. This gives even more 'mood' to his work, varying from the 'romantic to the slightly spooky'. Although not a professional photographer he does sell the odd print here and there to try to recover some of his costs. He has donated a number of his photos, spread throughout the site, the bulk of which can be found in the Rother Valley Trail
