From Polaroid to Argus to Canon, from darkroom to digital: although the passions in my life have changed, photography has been a constant joy. I've been fortunate in my travels, and I'm taking the opportunity to share both black and white and color views of my world. My happiest place is anywhere in the UK, with a camera and time to spare. I hope you enjoy my view of the world. All photographs on this site are subject to copyright and are protected by the Copyright Law of the United States (Title 17, United States Code).
