I am a 50 year old Photographer. I am not a professional photographer and don't pretend to be. I take pictures because I like to take pictures and share them with other people. I am not doing this to make money, its done for the love of photography.

I have had my work used by the likes of Performance Bikes, Essar Oil(aka Shell)Port Sunlight Museum, Pancreatic Cancer.org(charity) and most recently the Norton Motorcycle Company, also local newspapers.

For me photography is now a reason to get out and see the great things that surround us.

I decided to get back into photography after having major surgery on my left foot in 2013, I was basically told that if I did not have an operation in the next year I would not be walking as I suffer from a degenerative muscle wasting disease call CMT(Charcot Marie Tooth disease). And that I needed corrective foot surgery. My feet now have nearly 20 pieces of titanium in it, of which 11 pieces are screws!

During the 6 month recovery period after that operation I decided that I wanted to get back into taking photo's. So for the next 6 months I basically read as much as I could about photography and camera manuals!

I did photography at school and took GCSE photography many years ago, so I already knew the basics, but did not know much about DSLR'S and just what they are capable of. So I picked up my first DSLR in October 2013 And now all I want to do is get out and take pictures, everywhere I go, I am looking for a picture, a good location, checking my sunrise/sunset app on my phone to see what direction the sunsets or rises.

Its an amazing thing to capture an image that you know is good, better than any drug in my opinion. Please enjoy my work and thank you all for looking at my photographs.
