Gallery for a Weekend Again!

I have set up a gallery-type exhibition at Peak Village, Rowsley. This is just off the A6 between Matlock and Bakewell. Take the turn for Chatsworth from the A6 and after 100 yards turn left into Peak Village. There is a huge car park. Come in at the second entrance and we are in the second unit on the right (used to be Julian Graves). If you have trouble finding it call me on 07976 872679 and I will talk you in!
There are framed and unframed black and white photographs as well as Peak Light and High Light books. If you are interested in courses we can have a chat about these, there are places for the Photo course on 23rd August and Darkroom course on 8th November.
Hope to see you there.

New USA Black and White Photographs

First posted 20th June 2008
Reposted 23rd August 2014
I'm not sure why Blogger threw this post out while I was adding labels to it so that it was indexed but the only way to get it back into my blog appears to be to publish like a new post. So here goes...... The photos aren't quite as new as they were in 2008!


I have been back from the USA just on 4 weeks now. I had hoped to write an almost daily blog while out there but couldn't work out how to access this blog through my Blackberry (couldn't get to the sign in screen).

We flew to San Francisco, then spent 12 days in Yosemite National Park, back to San Francisco before flying to New York to exhibit my work at the Surtex trade show in Manhattan. This means I have black and white pictures from all of these places. If you go to the web site there is a link from the home page to the New York and San Francisco shots: http://www.davebutcher.net/

I'm working on the Yosemite photos right now and should have them on the web site next week, hopefully, at least the first ones.

Here's a few city shots to tempt you:

USA trip

I recently returned from a trip to the USA. I tried to write a blog from there but my Blackberry wouldn't give me the sign in screen.

Peak District Landscape Photography Courses

Here are some photographs taken on Landscape Photography courses with Dave Butcher. I hope you like them!

They are by Stephen Bell, taken 12-April-2008.

Next Show - Surtex, New York

Our next show is in New York. We have a stand (2030, Hall 1E) at the Surtex trade show for licensing images for use on surfaces and textiles. Sunday 18th to Tuesday 20th May 2008, Jacob Javits Centre, Manhattan.

We did this for the first time last year which led to the deal with International Graphics Walmsley GmbH for fine art posters.

Also taking the opportunity to add to my picture library with San Francisco, Yosemite National Park and more shots of New York City. Keeping fingers crossed that the weather is good.
It will take me a few weeks to print them but keep an eye on the Recent Photographs page to see if you like them.
