Until recently, the county of Northumberland seemed to be one of England's best-kept secrets. Along the coast there are long stretches of golden sand that even at the height of summer remained empty. There are areas of countryside with a stark and compelling beauty that were seen by only a small number of visitors. It was as though Northumberland was just for the Northumbrian. But now this 'secret kingdom' is far better known outside its borders. The astonishing success of the Hadrian's Wall Path has exceeded all expectations, and further north the Alnwick Gardens is a popular tourist attraction. One of the reasons for this growing interest in the county has been the popularity of landscape photography. The images of photographers working in Northumberland have played their part in teaching people about the charms and delights of this uniquely blessed area. I hope the images in this book are seen as my small contribution to this celebration of Northumberland.
