Who is Nick Meers?

Nick Meers is a British landscape photographer and is the co-author of many published books that include his photography.

Meers grew up in the Cotswolds and was educated at Bryanston School in Dorset. He then trained as a photographer and works with landscape photography, including panoramic photography. During his career as a photographer, he has travelled to Europe and North America, but many of his photographs are of English landscapes. The National Trust holds many of his photographs. He has taught in the UK and US. He is a member of the Association of Photographers and the International Association of Panoramic Photographers.

For Panoramas of English Gardens, depicting twenty gardens, he used a panoramic camera, which necessitated composing the views both upside down and back to front with his head underneath a black cloth. The result was an extreme wide angle view without visual distortion of the scene and "the first time that the printed page has been able to reproduce a true image of a garden viewed as a whole."
