UK photographer John Beatty will be appearing at Bolton Albert Halls on Friday 9th October. John is widely acclaimed as one of the most exciting and stimulating nature, travel and adventure photographers to have emerged in recent years, his multimedia presentations receiving accolades from the media, the public and from leading brands in the photographic industry. Over the last 27 years, John has adventured to 38 countries always returning with stories of his experiences of the wilderness which few have encountered. He has been to the Himalayas, the Pacific Islands, East Africa, the American Deserts, the Galapagos Islands and the Andes, Namibia, Alaska, the European Alps and has photographed almost all the wild land locations in Britain from the windswept tors of Cornwall to white strands of the Outer Hebrides. He spent 4 years working as a stills photographer with David Bellamy and has worked on advertising campaigns with leading brands in the outdoor design & manufacturing sector, also supplying photographs to Getty Images for worldwide corporate advertising and features.

As well as being a fantastic photographer, John is also a captivating and inspiring storyteller and Wild Vision is a chance to hear about his extraordinary life. As he explains, his work aims to capture “the timeless rhythms of the natural environment, its beauty and simplicity, and man’s place within it”. Wild Vision promises to be a fantastic audio-visual presentation which will leave audiences infused with energy and wonder at the beauty of our planet.
