About the Authors
Chiz Dakin is an award-winning freelance photographer, with particular interest in outdoor themes such as landscape, adventure sports and travel. Oh, and she never thought she’d say this, but wildlife too.
She’s a keen mountain walker, scrambler/mountaineer and cyclist and enjoys a variety of watersports (sea-kayaking, diving and windsurfing in particular) whenever she gets the chance.
She also finds photography is a great excuse to indulge in her passion for travelling. She’s now visited some part of all seven continents, and has made some epic trips, such as driving from Cairns to Perth via Broome in Australia, semi-circumnavigating Antarctica in an icebreaker and summiting a peak over 6000m high in Ladakh. She also publishes her own range of greetings cards, and runs workshops on outdoor photography in Derbyshire and Southern Spain.
Chiz lives in the Derwent Valley Heritage Corridor, very close to the Peak District.
She was the winner of the Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild (OWPG) Award for Excellence in Photography in 2008.

Cycling in the Peak District
Jon Sparks has been passionate about photography and the outdoors since childhood. A six-week trek in the Karakoram Mountains, Pakistan, in 1990 was a turning-point; the learning curve was steep, but the pictures were rewarding. His first exhibition soon followed, and four years later he became a full-time photographer.
Jon specialises in landscape and outdoor subjects, and his picture library includes images from New Zealand, Canada, Morocco, Australia, Pakistan, Jordan and more than 20 European nations. He also supplies images to the global libraries Corbis and Alamy. He publishes Lake District greetings cards and postcards, and so far has his name on over thirty books, including guides to every current Nikon digital SLR.
Jon is a member of the Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild. He lives in Garstang, Lancashire, close to the Forest of Bowland – which can be a distraction from writing.
