Guernsey’s coastline has been photographed countless times over the
years, with amateurs and professionals keen to capture its breathtaking
beauty. Many have done so, but few have captured the scenes with the
sort of ethereal quality achieved by local photographers Nick Després
and Alex Wallace of perfectprints.co.uk.
The
images featured on the stamps are all fabulous pieces of art in their
own right, so striking that it is tempting to think they have been
digitally enhanced. However, they are simply the result of great skill,
diligent research, superb subjects and just a tiny bit of luck in terms
of Mother Nature’s performance on the day.
