About the Photographer

I am a self taught photographer and artist from a professional science background.

I have been taking photographs for 20 years, focussing at first on images of landscapes and of friends and family.

In 2009 I joined Flickr and discovered a new world of photography to explore, working initially with images of local landscapes and the HDR technique. I then adopted a more experimental approach starting with macro photography of light patterns, effects and colours.  I then developed a series of images using light and camera movement.

I was further inspired by the work of other experimental photographers.This led me to experiment with photography using primitive lenses, in camera texture, refraction patterns and lensless photography.

I continue to produce work of a more conventional nature whilst developing the experimental techniques.

My images are not created by computer software and post processing is minimal.
