Country Life: Front Cover September 2011

While browsing the magazine racks in a supermarket this afternoon I spotted one of my photographs on the front cover of ‘Country Life’.

I don’t often manage to track down my photographs sold through a stock agency. Mainly down to time, and finding out about the sale after the magazine is taken off of the shelves. So it’s always nice to stumble across my work in print, especially if it’s a front cover.

The photograph was taken on a warm June evening in 2007 on Chilbolton Cow Common. The river test meanders it’s way through here on it’s way to Stockbridge, and then on South towards the sea. The Common lies between the villages of Chilbolton and Wherwell and is a great place to see a variety of birds, fish and wildflowers. The Yellow Flag Iris, seen in the photo, line the banks of the Test through out the summer months.

For more photographs of the Cow Common see the Hampshire Gallery.
