The country of Wales is one of myth and legend, kings, castles and Celts. This could have also been the inspiration for a young Tolkien, plotting his ideas for what would become one of the greatest books and feature films ever produced, Lord of the Rings.

Tolkien was known to have visited the Brecon Beacons as a child. Stories have unfolded at his passion towards the area of Tallybont On Usk and his vision of, middle earth and the Shire.

Here you can view the collection of images taken from this region. The images on view are from the digital collection, I do plan to re visit and take images on my large format camera and maybe release a fine art photography book showcasing the region and calling it, Standing in the steps of Tolkien.
