Description
A landscape photograph named ‘Settling Down’, taken on Spankers Hill Wood, photographed by photographer Patrick Steel within Richmond Park, Richmond upon Thames. A permit was granted by The Royal Parks to capture this photo
Patrick Recalls: This photo is one of the most popular Photographs that I have taken in Richmond Park. Clearly, it was shot during the winter and the beautiful blue hue at dusk just sets it off. I couldn’t believe my luck when the stags began to pass by, it was almost as if someone was watching over me and ushering them into position. Interestingly, it was only about 4pm when I photographed this image. People often ask me how did I light up the inside of the tree house? The answer is, I placed a flash gun inside the hut, placed a warm filter over it to give the warm glow and triggered it off remotely. I remember being freezing afterwards, wet through and covered in snow, I warmed myself up next to an open fire at the local pub with a smile from ear to ear knowing that I had just captured a beautiful image.

Happy Customer: Settling Down, Spankers Hill Wood, Richmond Park
My husband saw this fantastic photograph and commented on how much he loved it and so I purchased it as a Birthday present for him. It’s a wonderfully interesting photograph taken on a winter’s evening. Patrick was extremely helpful in every way – helping me determine which size to purchase, deciding upon the most appropriate frame and even getting it framed and delivering it to me – just an outstanding service and a fantastic photograph. We are very much enjoying having it hanging in our family room. THANK YOU!
