What a wonderful world...

Born in the UK, long-time resident of Melbourne, Australia.

Primary camera, Olympus OMD EM-5 Mark III, with some assistance from iPhones and Fujifilm X-20. Back in film days, a Minolta SR-T101 and an Olympus 35RC rangefinder. Going back even further, my first camera, purchased from saving up all my pocket money, was a Kodak Instamatic 50 which utilised a 126 film cartridge to produce 26mm x 26mm negatives.

I post a lot of shots of Japan, which I've visited numerous times, a lot of shots around the city of Melbourne, shots from the distant past and shots from what was once the future. I also post some street photography. If you find yourself in the frame in any of these pictures and you don't like it, please feel free to contact me at the email address listed below and I will remove them.

Other than that - no philosophy, no ideology, and no advice.

His sense of humour shines through, not only in his choice of subjects but also in his clever titles - his puns and misquotes etc often make me smile.
