While Chris Scaldwell will be familiar to many Shevington residents for his daily deliveries, they may not know he is also a talented amateur photographer.
He enjoys the great outdoors – often with his camera in hand – and an exhibition of 50 of his photographs are now on display at Village Art Gallery at Shevington Library.
They include wildlife photographs, scenic landscapes and a range of other images.
Chris, who lives in Pemberton, said: “My photography varies. I do a lot of walking and wild camping in the Lake District, so I come across some really gorgeous landscapes first thing in the morning and last thing at night.”
The pictures are available to buy and a percentage of the sales will be donated to Wigan and Leigh Hospice to mark its 40th anniversary.
The exhibition runs until the end of November.
