Phil Benton is a landscape and wildlife photographer from the North East. His journey started when he started training as a painter and decorator at 15 years old to then received a life changing diagnosis of Myalgia Encephalomyelitis (M.E.). After this, he fell in love with the art of photography which has certainly been both unique and challenging.
