Alex told PutneySW15.com:
"I remember Richmond park from when I was a child. My mum and friends parents used to take us there to have picnics and play. I moved very close to the park in Roehampton and had just taken up photography as a hobby. The first autumn I was there early in the morning just blew me away. I loved the fact that I was one of the only people up to see nature at its best. With the mists and the amazing light over the lakes in in the forests, and added to that majestic stags and swans. It wasn't that hard getting up early when I knew I could look out of my window and see the conditions were right. I would just cycle in the park and never knew what I was going to get."
