Alison will present "It's Not About Colour"
Most of Alison's photographs are taken in the north of England and are based around fells, waterfalls and the sea. It's where she is happiest and the variety of the scenery is endless.
She is passionate about the sea and whenever possible drives to the coast and stands on the foreshore looking out to sea admiring the waves and looking for patterns in the sand.
