Villager Jim

Over the past few years, Villager Jim has been avidly photographing the natural world in his own garden as well as in the beautiful countryside that surrounds his home in the Derbyshire Peak District. Amongst his subjects are pictures of his own beloved Labrador dogs as well as farmyard animals and the natural flora, fauna and spectacular landscapes around him.

Having built up a huge international presence on Facebook, Jim’s thousands of followers enjoy his out of the ordinary compositions and the humorous angle of his captions.

Jim has appeared on BBC’s Countryfile in 2014 and 2016, and was the editor’s choice in the British Wildlife Photography Awards in 2013. Winning a Springwatch competition (beating 50,000 others), his images are often shown by the Springwatch and Autumnwatch team. He is also an official Designated Photography Partner for the Peak District tourism board.

In spite of his popularity, Villager Jim remains anonymous, while his photographs speak for themselves. Read more about him at www.villagerjimsshop.com, where you can also find a selection of greetings cards, calendars and many other items that feature his photographs.
