Maldon District Council would like to express their thanks to the following people and groups for their contribution to this site and to the Maldon District.
LOCAL PHOTOGRAPHERS
Marion Sidebottom
Marion's photographs appear throughout the website reflecting her extensive contribution to the provision of high quality images to promote the District. Marion's knowledge of the local environment paired with her keen eye for outstanding natural beauty combine to create some powerful imagery. We can only recommend a further look at her work on her website.
Tom McGahan
Tom continues to provide us with a wide range of outstanding photographs from intricate images of wildlife to fast paced action shots of events such as the Maldon Mud Race and Saltmarsh 75. Tom's work consistently seems to sum up the moment perfectly. Winner of the 2017 Feature Shoot Print Swap, “ Slieve Coillte’ from the series ‘Echoes’ exhibited in Group show at Black Eye Gallery, Sydney is just one of the reasons to check out his website.
Mischa Haller
Mischa's work on the Sense of Place branding provided an excellent visual representation of what is unique about this district, and in doing so we feel that her images have helped to entice many visitors to come here. Her close-up work on local produce and wide-angled landscape shots reflect the gastro, coastal and timeless themes at the heart of our tourism offer.
Steve Boutwell
We are extremely grateful for the time and effort Steve has dedicated to sourcing us wonderful scenes from around the Maldon District. His love and passion for Promenade Park is shown through the shots he has shared - especially the early morning views - with not a soul about.
Malcolm Brown
A member of the Essex Guild of Craftsman, Malcolm has a huge array of artistic and capivating photos. Specialising in particular in the beautiful natural aspects of the District, Malcolm has really captured the essence of Maldon. Malcolms work can be seen on his website
Paul Harriss
We would especially like to thank Paul for his Coastal Walk photographs taken in 2013, whose quality means that they are frequently still used today.
