I have been photographing from the days of B & W, until recently slide film and now digital. My preferred photograpy is out in nature. It is a way for me to discover the wonderful creations that nature has provided. It also has taught me how to be in the moment. I am fortunate to live along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world, the Cape Peninsula in S Africa. We can boast a unique flower kingdom with over 4500 flower species.

 

I strive to express the way I feel about my images by being aware of visual design which I have learnt from participating in S African workshops run by Freeman Patterson and in which I have, during the past few years, assisted as an instructor.

 

I look forward to sharing my images with like minded photographers from whom I can also learn.

Brian’s images have the innocence of the eye of a child looking at wonder for the first time at a drift of sand or a glint of a wave. There is an intimacy with nature and a poetic feel to his work that I just love. I often just wander down his beaches and enjoy the blues of the sea and the tones of the sand. I hope one day to visit the magical place he captures so well. Meantime I visit and enjoy the wonders of Brian’s animals, flowers, sea and sand that is the Africa he captures so well.
