A Portrait of Derbyshire

Derbyshire is a very diverse county. From the high level grouse moors in the north, through the Peak district National Park to it's industrial belt (think Rolls Royce, Bombardier) and then on to the fertile and flat Trent valley. As a result it's people are equally diverse. This project intends to explore that diversity through a collection of portraits of the people of Derbyshire at work and play.
These 4 images represent the first shoot and are from White Watch, a great bunch of guys from my local fire station.
