Graham Land is that portion of the Antarctic Peninsula which lies north of a line joining Cape Jeremy and Cape Agassiz. This application of Graham Land is consistent with the 1964 agreement between US-ACAN and UK-APC, in which the name "Antarctic Peninsula" was approved for the major peninsula of Antarctica, and the names Graham Land and Palmer Land for the northern and southern portions, respectively. This feature is named after Sir James R. G. Graham, First Lord of the Admiralty at the time of John Biscoe's exploration of the west side of Graham Land in 1832.
Graham was born in Connah's Quay, North Wales in 1949.
During a visit to Sydney, Australia to photograph his brother's wedding Graham and his wife Gwen took time to browse galleries and they were impressed by the stunning Australian panoramic photographs.
Graham has used the special light of dawn and dusk and the changes in cloud formation to highlight the unique features of the region's mountains and hills, forests and rivers, flora and fauna, castles and bridges.
