Hampstead Heath is a stunning location for nature photography in the heart of London. With its rolling hills, ancient woodlands, and stunning city views it is a perfect location for photography. Perfect in all seasons, you can choose between the new shoots of spring, the beauty of a summer sunset, the vibrant colours of autumn, or the frost and snow covered scenes of Winter. Click through the following slideshow to view some of the images I recently captured in Hampstead Heath:
Hampstead Heath is a vast wild park of woodland and meadows, located inside north London’s Zone Two, less than four miles from the centre. The parkland sprawls over 800 acres and boasts some of the most spectacular and alternative photographic views of the city. Capture the beauty of the Heath's flora and fauna by exploring its varied landscapes. From the tranquil ponds where ducks and geese swim, to the wooded areas where you might spot a fox or a deer, Hampstead Heath offers endless possibilities for nature photography. The Heath has many unique features, including Kenwood House, and the famous swimming ponds, which hold an almost mystical status among those brave enough to take a dip. Head up to the Parliament Hill viewpoint where you can juxtapose the natural beauty of the Heath against the cityscape for some unique landscape images.
