Scarborough based nature photographer

Hi, my name is Davyd Longstaff; I am a passionate photographer specialising in landscape, nature and historic building photography.

I have always had a keen interest in photography throughout my life, but it's only in the past 5 years that this hobby and passion has become my full time focus. I like getting out and exploring the world, every second in nature is unique and I want to capture once in a lifetime, beautiful moments and share it with you. With every snap I challenge myself to improve my techniques and hone my skill.

My background story

Nature has always been a love of mine but one of my other big passions are cars/motorsport. In the past my love of photography and cars have regularly overlapped when I would take pictures of car parts. I also regularly took part in racing and always had very high performance cars whilst I worked as a diesel engineer.

Six years ago I was selling a high performance car to a young man wanted to take the car for a test drive, he said he was 34 and experienced with high powered cars but this turned out to not be true. This man was actually 24 and had no experience in handling a vehicle with such power and speed. Not knowing this all important information I went along with him on the test drive that was going to change my life forever...
During the test drive the 24 year old lost control, rolled the car and left me for dead in the passenger seat whilst he fled the scene. When paramedics arrived I was pronounced dead but luckily I was later revived. I have since made a miraculous recovery, although I did suffer a brain injury and am scarred for life. The man was later found and his true age discovered, this made my insurance claim null and void and unfortunately he escaped with very little charges.

This trauma changed my whole life course as, due to my injuries, I was unable to work. I escaped boredom by pouring all of my free time into an old hobby, photography. 

Photography helped me have the motivation to get up early in the morning instead of staying indoors feeling sorry for myself. I now capture the beauty in the world instead of feeling angry at the unfair hand life has dealt me. Photography has helped me come to terms with the new life I now lead, and has given me a new appreciation of how lucky I am to live every day enjoying the beauty of nature and I now want to share these stunning moments with you.

I go out in all weathers, usually around my local North Yorkshire countryside but also enjoy travelling across The UK. I have always thought my work was average and didn't stand out as the accident has really affected my self esteem. Recently, due to the fantastic support system around me I now feel confident enough to share my talents. Family, friends and other photographers have mentioned my keen eye and my unique angles, please judge for yourself by taking a look at my gallery.
