Josh Greet’s photography, exemplified in a recent image of a runner amidst rain in Dartmoor national park, showcases his unique practice of combining sports, community, and local folklore. Employing a flash protected by a bin bag, Greet captures the essence of Dartmoor’s pagan history and mythology through the athletes featured, rather than models. This image is part of his ongoing series Phenomena, created in collaboration with Arrival at One, emphasizing authenticity and the beauty of nature while inviting viewers to appreciate the stories of the landscape.
"Not only a striking standalone image, the shot perfectly encapsulates the photographer's unique practice. Rather than being shot in a studio, it was shot on the Dartmoor national park in actual pouring rain."
"The series should be as truthful as possible, casting actual runners and members of the community as opposed to models... their interest in Dartmoor's rich pagan history united the pair."
