Finding The Way - Limited Edition Print

I had spent almost 18 months walking around the Ashridge Estate without much luck. I had made a set of images, but not one of them had really stood the test of time. I felt like I was drawing blanks, but on this late September morning, I was walking down this path and the scene opened up before my eyes. Shafts of light penetrated through the fog in front of me and, without hesitation, I stopped to get my view camera set up. There’s usually a saying that, if you’ve already seen it, you’re too late. But in this case I managed to get my camera set up and focused within about 5 minutes, by which point there was time to expose a couple of sheets of film before the light became too harsh.
