Ruth has for many years been fortunate enough to combine her love of both travel and photography. Her work includes landscapes, portraits and especially wildlife images. She has been a finalist in Wanderlust's Travel Photographer of the Year contest and has published in several magazines.

More recently she has been working in a variety of other media, including collages and pen and ink drawings. They too often follow the theme of wildlife images. 

During the Trail she exhibits both prints and high quality cards. She also runs a website and online shop.
