Hidden Beauty

In the last decade Cornwall has emerged as one of the world’s iconic destinations. Cornwall is made up of a range of picturesque landscapes which has been appreciated in photography for a while. From the dramatic coastline of the north to the sheltered bays in the south, from ancient moorland to soft river estuaries.

However it has deeper importance, twenty-seven per cent of the County is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a further 24% as Area of Great Landscape Value (AGLV). The landscape is formed from a combination of climate, geology, natural features and human activity.

I have chosen to photograph the hidden beauty of Cornwall which are on the coastal footpaths or a tourist place but are not heavily populated when visited so they still have a sense of calm being a distinctive portrayal of Cornwall. I will focus on this idea as continue to shoot whilst I am still on Cornwall for my university term.
