I like many Genres of photography, I love to travel to new places and capture the beauty of my surroundings. The galleries on this page are some of my favourite pictures I have taken over the years.
Landscape Photography
With so many lovely places in the world, I will never tire of landscape photography, and even the same location can produce a totally different picture at differing times of the year or even the day.

Floral Photography
When I started on my journey to becoming a professional photographer, my first subjects were quite often flowers. I still like to capture their beauty, and with so many varieties I am never stuck for a subject to photograph.

Black & White Photography
I believe that sometimes an image is at its most colourful in black and white. The mono tones bring out so much drama. It can really add something to an image that may not be so apparent in colour.
