Interest grew steadily from about 2007, quickly outgrew the bridge camera I bought, first DSLR in 2008 and I have never looked back.
I am a huge lover of prime lenses and most of the glass I own is way older than me!
I consider myself to be a serious amateur photographer.
I am always trying to improve my skills as a photographer, at the moment im into waterscapes and long exposures.
If you add me as a contact, thank you very much, I am honoured, but I will only accept you back if you [A] have good photos and [B] comment and interact with me once in a while.

I think anyone can take a picture but not everyone can take a photograph.
Photography has changed the way i see things.
I enjoy listening to music as well as making it, be it on my guitar or drum kit.
I love skateboarding, surfing and snowboarding and i can juggle.

I met and became good friends with Alex when he was a lowly temp at my previous job inbetween his jaunts around the world.. ..After a while of him chewing my ear off about photography, i slowly started to get the bug and bought a bridge camera similar to the one he had. Needless to say that these cameras never quenched our thirst for photography and Alex invested in his shiny new Nikon and i was soon to follow. Alex never fails to impress me with his relentless pursuit of photography and his knowledge of the subject. He is constantly on the look-out for interesting shots and new ideas. Although this sometimes puts me to shame when i have a "night off", i would never have progressed as much, or have pushed myself if it wasnt for the enthusiasm and talent of this awesome friend. Thanks for passing the passion on!!
