My photos

I don’t remember not having a camera, but it wasn’t until this digital age that my great interest was awakened.  My dad was a very keen photographer but that was in the days of black and white, and he developed and printed them himself.  I just know I would not have the patience to do that!  Now, every day that I go out with my camera and tripod brings new challenges.  In particular I’ve developed a great fascination with natural light and hope to develop further my understanding and skill in capturing its beauty.

Unless otherwise stated, all the photographs you see on this blog are my own.  Please respect copyright.
