Welcome to the blog of outdoor photographer, artist and web designer Jeff Bevan. I’m based in the middle of Somerset, and I am an experienced natural history and landscape artist and photographer. I am a keen conservationist doing voluntary reserve management for the Somerset Wildlife Trust.
If you like to see more of my work then visit may website at www.jeffbevan.co.uk or my Flickr page.
Hi Jeff, I stumbled upon your Flickr page. Your Somerset pictures are breathtaking. I pinned them onto my Pinterest Board. 🙂
I am quite taken by you photographs, they are all so full of life. Also, I love the colours in your work.
Kind regards,
Josefina Apollonia
Hello from Malaysia. Beautiful photos. Helps guide me as I visit Somerset this Spring.
Many thanks.
Jeff
Superb pictures and details of special places in and around the Mendips. I have put a link to my blog, so that friends can see what a wonderful place we live in.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I agree, this is a wonderful place to live. Your blog looks great!
Hi
I wanted to enquire about using one of your images as a Christmas card. Did you get an email from your contact form?
Thanks
Kit
Hi Kit, I have sent you a separate email. Normally, I am happy for my pictures to be used. However, depending on how you plan to use it there may be some terms and conditions.
Many thanks
Jeff
Hi Jeff – I’ve left a message before but I’m not sure whether you have received it? My grandmother was born and bred in Brent Knoll (1908) and I have written an tribute historical fiction piece on The Mount of Frogs. I would dearly love one or more of your photographs that capture the essence of the area and in particular the Brent Knoll Hillfort. I have visited the area and allegedly the public toilets used to be her school – however, when I visited the toilets there they looked purpose built to me so I guess they’d been demolished and rebuilt! I am no way capable of taking pictures like yours and would dearly like to boast at least one of them on the front cover when it comes to publishing so that younger relations can see what a mystical environment my grandmother came from… Kind regards – Stephanie Price
Hi Stephanie, I’m very pleased you like my picture and would be happy for you to use them in your tribute. Which pictures were you interested in? Jeff
Hi Jeff – Thank you so much for responding. I was interested in Lynchcombe Gate UK.ID BR57131, Mendip Storms UK.ID 807_1500 & Brent Knoll from Lynchcombe UK.ID DSCN4746. If you’re amenable I can liaise with the publishers as to whether I can use all three (as I want and that was cutting the list down!) or whether they make me stick to the front cover? Once again, you’ve caught the enchanted essence and the pictures made my heart jump and my face light up! Thank you again. Stephanie
Hi Stephanie, I’m happy for you to use my pictures. I have sent the details in a separate email. Jeff
Hi Jeff, I hope you don’t mind me contacting you this way. I have been trying to track you down because I would love to include your beautiful photo of King Alfred’s Tower from under an old oak tree in South Brewham in the second edition I am compiling of my book The Long Walk to Glastonbury – details of which you can see here. On our walk (in 1973) we passed this very spot! Thank you. Stewart

Hi, Thanks for kind comments. I’m happy for you to use my picture in the book in exchange for an acknowledgement. Jeff
Good Morning Jeff,
I hope you’re well. Would you mind dropping me an email so that I can contact you about using some of your images for social media?
Kind regards,
Matt
Hi Matt, I have contacted you via a separate email. Let me know if you do not receive it. Thanks for your interest in my pictures. Jeff
Hi,
Can I use your photo of Lovington Church to illustrate an article about the Hinxman and Mouland family? Alfred Hinxman married Emma Oram at Lovington in 1892 before moving to Salisbury (and eventually becoming mayor).
Pat
Hi Pat, Thanks for your interest in my pictures. I’m happy for you to use the photo of Lovington Church. All I ask is for an acknowledgement. Jeff
Dear Jeff
Hope you are well. I’m trying my luck again here.
I’ve tried to contact you in so many ways.
We are a local Bruton based soap and personal care brand called Commune.
We would love to use your image on some of out media channels such as Instagram, and our website.
Please could we have a call or meet to discuss this.
Happy to drive to Wells to see you.
