Spring Photograph

My photography journey started with a desire to capture the magical moments produced by the interplay of light with other elements of nature and designs created by man. Photography provides the means of exploring, expressing and representing this. When I am out and about searching for images, I strive to translate what I see in my mind's eye into two dimensional photographs, whilst maintaining the essence of the original scene. I aim to achieve simplicity in all my images by arranging their elements effectively within the viewfinder. However, what my mind's eye sees is frequently elusive, short lived or illusory. Whether one uses a digital or film camera is irrelevant as they are merely tools that photographers use to create images. As a practicing photographer, I am constantly generating images in my mind's eye, whether or not I am carrying a camera. The possibilities are limitless; constrained only by the imagination of the photographer. Many images of mine have been used for various publications such as magazine covers, daily newspapers, travel brochures, travel guides, in-flight magazines and so on, not only in the UK but also in many other countries. I am based in Surrey as well as in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire in England.
