Hi.

I have been taking photos for as long as I can remember.

I started my own web site back in 1998, when the web was much smaller & clunkier. On that first site I decided to post some of my photos (film photos, scanned), and I haven't stopped since.

This is something I wrote a while back about why I enjoy photography:

==============================

I like to be able to create art of out thin air. Taking a photo is freezing a moment in time and turning it into a two-dimensional image. It's not about capturing anything, its more about creating something different. A photograph is not real or true to life, it is only a very tiny piece of it. A picture is my own view of the world, or how I would like to see it, not how it is. A photograph is a way to edit out the world around me, and just take the bits I like. Taking photos is a way of being able to see the everyday art and beauty of the world. And then be able to put it in my pocket.

=================================

I am flattered if you want to use my photo for your blog, website or publication, but please contact me first before you do. My photos cannot be used at all without my prior permission. Thanks for your understanding.
