The featured kingfisher photo is by Trevor Hunter:

Trevor is an award-winning photographer with over 40 years’ experience, including 16 years as a professional landscape and wildlife photographer. Based in the UK, he specialises in capturing the beauty of the natural world, showcasing our stunning wildlife and breath-taking landscapes.

He has travelled extensively throughout the British Isles, photographing wildlife in their natural habitats—authentic and beautiful. Landscapes are his true passion, and his work ranges from moody and atmospheric to still and serene, depending on the ever-changing weather.

Much of Trevor's inspiration comes from the vast Scottish landscape, but Worcestershire—his home—is where he honed his craft and developed his deep love for photography. Through his work, he hopes to share that connection and celebrate the wonderful wildlife all around us.

This exhibition, entitled The Landscape and Nature of the British Isles, presents a beautiful array of photographs capturing the British Isles at their finest. It showcases the remote beauty of the Outer Hebrides, the dramatic coastlines of the Isle of Mull, and the rugged heart of Scotland. These landscapes, rich in mood and character, have long been a constant source of inspiration and remain some of my favourite places to work.

Closer to home, Worcestershire is no less inspiring. Its rolling fields, woodlands, and hedgerows offer endless opportunities to observe and capture the natural world.

Many birds of prey also feature in the exhibition, their elegance and strength showcased throughout. Whether it’s the silent flight of a barn owl or a kestrel suspended mid-air, they highlight the beauty of wildlife across the UK.

 

Ceramics by Adele Morris:

Adele Morris is a contemporary ceramicist based near Bath. Holding a degree in surface pattern design, she draws her inspiration from the natural world to hand-build expressive ceramic chickens, birds and animals that are full of fun and unique personality. Each creation starts out as a piece of stoneware clay; it is carefully shaped, fired, and then decorated with a variety of techniques and glazes before being fired once more in a kiln. Adele loves experimenting with different mark-making and glazing techniques, which ensures that no two creations are ever the same and every single piece is unique. She currently sells her ceramics at the Stourhead National Trust Art Gallery and the Bryher Gallery in the Isles of Scilly.

Alongside her studio practice, Adele works as a creative educator running her own workshops across Bath and Bristol. She teaches a diverse variety of making skills—including ceramics, textiles, and art—to individuals of all ages, from children to adults, encouraging others to explore their own artistic side and discover the rewarding, slow-paced joy of making.

 

Collages by Matthew Price:

Matthew is an artist practising in a wide range of disciplines; photography, illustration, ceramics and paper collage.

The natural world has always been a constant source of fascination and curiosity for Matthew. As a child, he would turn over stones to see the creepy crawlies up close, or gaze endlessly into ponds, studying the peculiar behaviour of aquatic life.

For this exhibition Matthew wanted to showcase my hand-cut colourful collages of birds found across the world. Using contrasting backgrounds, the aim is to create a striking portrait of each bird. Layers of card are used to create forms, patterns and textures of the bird.

One of Matthew's designs was featured on the Bristol when it was launched. He has exhibited work in the RWA Open Call, Bristol Folk House, Tobacco Factory, Brixton Library, Cass Art and Harts Bakery. Matthew is really excited to showcase his work here at WWT Slimbridge, a place that values, protects and restores wetlands. He hopes his work brings a smile to the many visitors that visit this important wildlife reserve.

Open daily, free with admission.
