A Kingston photographer famous for her viral photos of the Royal Parks has now released a 2022 calendar with a selection of her stunning shots.

Astrid Tontson regularly gets thousands of likes on her Twitter account for her calm early-morning scenes of Bushy and Richmond park.

Now fans of the Nikon photographer can see her work on their wall every day with her new 2022 calendar, available to buy on Ebay for £12.00.

The 12-page planner features a seasonal Bushy or Richmond park scene with each month, captured by Astrid with her DSLR on one of her early-morning strolls.

The Surbiton photographer also takes videos of wildlife in the park and received national press coverage including in the Telegraph and BBC after her work went viral during the first lockdown.

In an interview with the Richmond and Twickenham Times last year she paid tribute to the parks whose beauty and wildlife inspires her.

She told the paper: "When I go out with my camera, I am in a different world.

"I said once that when I go through the gates to the park it is like entering Narnia to me.

"There is so much beauty around us, I lose myself in views and sounds, and camera is the tool that allows me to bring all I've seen and experienced, to others who weren't there."
