Hi, I was born in 1955 in Hyde Cheshire and moved to Knaresborough, North Yorkshire in 1973 I then moved to nearby Killinghall, Harrogate in 2000 and, finally over to Sutton-in-Craven nr Skipton, North Yorkshire in 2007.

I married Hazel at Lake Tahoe California in September 2010 and now have 2 step sons (Damian & Adam) and a step daughter (Rebecca) plus 3 grandsons and 1 grandaughter .(James & Jayden, Izzy & Tommy)

I have worked all my life in a Travel Agency, spending 25 years with Ryedale Travel, as manager of their Ripon, North Yorkshire office, then with Althams Travel in Clitheroe, Lancashire, until I retired in 2019. Throughout my life I have travelled as much as I can and love to take photos of the places I have visited.

My interests are sport, playing squash and skiing also football, i' am a keen York City supporter. I have also been interested in aviation since a very early age.

All my photos here are, as taken, none are edited with programes like photoshop, just the odd photo has been cropped slightly.
