Dorothy Harris is a professional photographer from Devon. She is passionate about searching out unusual locations that revealing their special nature through reflection.
She often makes many visits to an area of interest. Often the final print subject is dependent on the changing light. Sometimes the landscape takes centre stage, at other times it becomes the setting.
In Sharptor -Bodmin, a lone tree takes centre stage with the tor set behind. Sharptor Bodmin is a conical tor found 1240ft above sea level.
