Steve Estill spent most of his working life in the oil industry, but always returned to his native North Yorkshire, drawn by his love of the coast and the moors. He has been interested in photography for over fifty years, moving from the darkroom into the digital age. He works with the Photographic Society of America, regularly exhibiting in international salons. Now retired, he enjoys the wildness and majesty of the North York Moors and uses his creative photography to promote their splendour. He enjoys exploring them and never ceases to be inspired by their folklore, history, and beauty.
