Welcome to Phil Wickens Photography

Phil is a landscape, wildlife and adventure photographer, and accomplished mountaineer and lecturer. Based in the English Peak District, his fascination of polar and mountain regions takes him on many journeys to some of the world's most beautiful and remote places.

This website showcases some of his photographic work and the stories behind it.

Phil is also a naturalist and lecturer in expedition photography, polar wildlife and polar history. When not in the polar regions he is often found, or lost, in the mountains on skis or on a rope, camera in hand.

Phil sets sail for Antarctica at the start of November with Darrel Day aboard Darrel's yacht Spirit of Sydney. After crossing Drake Passage the team hope to climb and ski at various locations in the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula.

From mid December he will then be lecturing and guiding for 3 months in Antarctica, the Falkland Islands and South Georgia, based on the Quark ship Ocean Nova.
