She is the author of The Healing Power of Water (2026).Website: www.goingcoastal.blueInstagram: @goingcoastalblueDominick Tyler’s photography career started in student media while he was studying Philosophy at UCL and quickly led to freelance work for national newspapers. In the years that followed, he built up a long list of editorial, commercial and NGO clients. His long-term project The Edge of Two Worlds, documenting the changing lives of a community of Innu in northern Canada, won the Marty Forscher Fellowship Award for Humanistic Photography in 2005, and second place in The Observer Hodge Award in 2004. This work was published internationally and exhibited in the Leica galleries in Frankfurt and Solms, and in the Proud Gallery in London. In 2007, Dominick collaborated with writer Kate Rew on the best-selling book Wild Swim, which was credited with launching an outdoor swimming revival. Dominick wrote and photographed Uncommon Ground, which was published by Guardian Faber in 2015 to wide acclaim – described by George Monbiot as ‘…an astonishing book of heart-wrenching beauty, which will re-ignite your enchantment with the natural world.’Rosanna Morris has worked in the realm of print for over ten years. She first got excited about relief print at the age of 18 during her foundation diploma at the Bristol School of Art. During the course she took a trip to Paris where she encountered inspiring large-scale street art around the city. Once home, she wanted to make her drawings big and began carving huge life-size woodcuts of British farming and pasted them on abandoned walls around the city.She went on to study Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts, where she developed her own unique style, evoking the traditional feel of British Wood Engravings within the aesthetic of contemporary illustration.Nikki Banfield, aka the BareFoot Photographer, is self-taught and shares the world as she sees it through the lens of her camera, poetry and prose. In our fast-paced, technology-driven lives, where noticing feels like a dying art, Nikki uses photography and the written word to connect both herself and others to the natural environment, encouraging everyone to take a moment to marvel, wonder and notice. She is heavily influenced by natural light, the green and the blue, endeavouring to capture the magic of moments and focusing the senses beyond what is readily visible.Living in Scilly, life is dominated and influenced by nature and the elements, both of which impact and mould what Nikki sees and shares through the lens of her camera.
