Welcome

Since the age of 11, I have always been interested in photography, starting with a good old Kodak Brownie 127 back in 1961 - it was only black & white holiday type snaps back then, but in 1964 I got a Kodak Instamatic 100, moving to a 500 two years later and decided to opt for colour slides. It took me a few years after that to adopt an SLR in the late 60's, however photography took a little bit of a backseat for many years after that until I adopted Digital in 2005. I currently use a Nikon D5000 and hope to get a Full Frame very soon.

Photography has given me great pleasure as a hobby, and I would like to think that even in the early days, I was a little bit more than a point and shoot photographer. And today.... well I still follow that dream of getting the perfect sunset or sunrise, if indeed there is one and on this page are a few of my favourites that I have captured.

Recently, I have obtained Licentiate membership to the Royal Photographic Society and I am currently putting a panel together for the Associate level.

The images found on this website are a selection of some of my own favourite shots from around the UK, together with my LRPS Panel. I hope you enjoy viewing them as much as i have enjoyed taking them.
