Welcome to my images. I have been taking photos now for over 19 year and although work and life have kept me busy i try to get out once in a while.

 

Since 2003 I have gone digital starting with EOS10D and now with a 7D which has allowed me to use my collection of Canon lenses that I used with my previous EOS3. Going digital certainly does save a lot of money when it comes to processing costs but it does create the need for more time spent improving the colours etc on Photoshop etc.

 

I have to admit that I do love the look of slides sitting on a lightbox but the practicalities and access though...

 

The greatest pleasure in my life is my wife and child and the love of being together and sharing this time on earth. Now most of my photographic time goes towards recording the life of my family and the subtle changes that occur as our little Alexander grows. I can now understand how the feelings of completeness when you are a father/mother.

 

I love travelling and have been privileged to have visited Japan, Singapore, Thailand, China, Bali and Athens. Although we live on a small blue/green planet I lament that life is too short to visit all the beautiful places that I would like to experience.

 

So, sit back, flick through my photos and please feel free to comment.

 

Below is where I have travelled in this wonderful world we live on.
