Welcome to my profile.
As you can see on my photo stream, I am a very keen semi professional photographer. My main interest is in landscapes of all types, with coastal being my favourite.
I tend to shoot seriously at the golden hours of each day around sunrise and sunset, just because the light and colours are normally so much richer. Of course at certain times of the year that means some very early starts and late evenings out, but the rewards can be so worth it.

Some absolutely stunning images Steve, beautifully taken and cropped, inspirational!
To me, photography is never just about the end result - it's about all of the effort goes into that final result. Steve's work is testimony to the amount of effort he puts in - the crazy hours and harsh conditions that see normal people safely tucked up in their beds. But Steve's work is not just about the photography,… Read more
To me, photography is never just about the end result - it's about all of the effort goes into that final result. Steve's work is testimony to the amount of effort he puts in - the crazy hours and harsh conditions that see normal people safely tucked up in their beds. But Steve's work is not just about the photography, it's about the warmth and humanity behind his careful explanations and the time and effort that he takes in offering support to the work of other photographers. His work is everything I love about photography - passion, dedication, humility and a never ending quest to develop his skills even further. He is a true credit and inspiration to this wonderful pastime.

Sophisticated photographer always i enjoy his beautiful sense in the photography..

Steve has a beautiful and diverse classical landscapes album of consistently high quality here at Flickr. What I like most, alongside his continued support, is that because he shoots at golden hour very little post processing is needed; the resulting images are always natural looking with the fine light and hues only possible in this time window. Keep up the excellent work, Steve. Kind regards Em.

When I added Steve as a contact it was because I really liked what I saw. Then over the past few months I began to love his photos. I find his PoV and post proceesing to be outstanding and I keep asking him to post a short tutorial on how he gets that awesome look. I am even more amazed by the fact that Steve pretty much only uses a regular 18-55mm lens yet shoots better photos than some of the pros I follow:) It really is never the equipment but always the photographer. Steve has become one of my favorite photogs here on Flickr and elsewhere! Keep it up...love your work!
