About the Photographer.

My passion for photography began in the early 1980's which followed from my keen appreciation of the texture, shapes and colours of the natural world. To me photography is about capturing the spirit of God's creation, be it the majesty of a glorious sunrise to the delicate beauty of a wildflower in bloom. The joy of photography, is that it has taught me to "see", or rather to take the time to "see".........and to be touched by God's living spirit.

I hope my photography does the same for you.

About the Limited Edition Photos.

The photos were all taken using transparency (slide) film, and then printed using archival inks and papers to produce an image of exceptional colour rendition and most importantly excellent archival properties. It is this combination of archival inks and paper that produce images that have lightfastness properties which far exceed traditional silver-halide photographs. Also my photographic philosophy, is that photography is about capturing the moment. With this in mind, the utmost attention is given to ensure that the colours produced on the photographs are as close as possible to the transparency from which it originated. Finally with the exception of the smallest size available, all photographs have a realistic limited edition quantity of only 50 or 100 editions. They are individually signed and numbered with no further images produced once the limited edition number has been sold.

About the Cameras.

Initially, most of my photography was taken using 35mm SLR equipment. Although, I still use my 35mm equipment from time to time, my main film format now is 6 x 9, 6 x 12 and 6 x 17 which is much larger than 35mm. This then enables a much larger enlargement of the photo without any loss of detail or sharpness.
