Just another one of those 'keen amateur' blokes you see wandering around gazing at things, with more keen than anything else.

 

I live in London, UK, and am learning more about photography every day. The shutter-bug has bitten me hard...

 

When not incessantly snapping, I'm a musician, playing drums, guitar or anything else I can lay my hands on in a London-based post-rock/experimental band called SonVer. We'll be pottering around the UK and bits of Europe this summer - come along, say hello!

 

All my HDR stuff is shot hand-held (mostly due to the absence of a tripod that doesn't fall over...and London security guards...)
