Light Up the Mountain
Light Up the Mountain
Celebrate a momentous event in the history of environmental conservation 'Mend our Mountains' which saw a light chain across the Great Ridge of Mam Tor. The print captures this significant event from 2018, where 600 individuals came together on Mam Tor to form a stunning chain of light as part of the Mend our Mountains campaign.
The image encapsulates a unique spectacle – hundreds of lights snaking up the Great Ridge, illuminating the landscape in a stunning display of unity and determination. This human chain of light, seen against the backdrop of the night sky, symbolises the collective resolve to preserve our natural landscapes, making the picture not just visually stunning but also deeply meaningful.
The 'Mend our Mountains' campaign, initiated by the British Mountaineering Council, was an ambitious, nationwide appeal aimed at raising funds for footpath repair on twelve of the UK's most iconic peaks. The illuminating event at Mam Tor was one of the highlights of the campaign, drawing attention to the urgent need for mountain path restoration.
Own a piece of environmental history with these prints and let your walls tell a story of unity, hope, and commitment to the preservation of our beloved mountain landscapes.
The canvas has a black edge so that the whole photograph is to the face, the edge is 20mm.
