I am an enthusiastic photographer and enjoy viewing the world through the lens of a camera. It allows me to be "in the moment" and to capture individual features of my world that are unique, beautiful or intriguing, and to give permanence to the splendour of the view.

I hope that by showing an appreciation for our beautiful world, others may share this delight.

I discovered the medium of photography as a student and loved to create images from my view of things around me, as a record and an appreciation of the visual world, and as a way of being creative. Film photography had an appeal of its own – the magic and alchemy of light and chemicals to create a lasting picture was mysterious and fun. After years of responsibilities intervening when my own artistic exploration was on hold and creativity struggling, retirement has allowed me to re-connect with my expressive side and explore the medium of digital photography. The ability to be in the moment, to capture the scene by clicking the shutter, developing it in the “digital darkroom”, exploring techniques to convey the intended meaning and printing the result, all encourage commitment, exploration and dedication.
