Who am I...
I am an Engineer with a Photography hobby currently located in Houston Texas after 18 years of globe trotting. |
I have taken my family all around the world, living in different countries and traveling to see places we could not live. This is where I picked up photography, something initially easy to take with me from place to place. It was something that I could pick up and put down quickly as the demands of my job dictated. As a went from Digital back to film, the equipment became larger, heavier and the darkroom sealed my fate to one of cumbersome movements. Yet I persisted and after almost 18 years living a nomadic life, we have returned to Houston to start a new chapter.

The Reason for it All |
Photography, by its very nature, is made to share. It is of very little enjoyment to keep images to yourself. A good photo will stand in testament of where you are in your development of a style and should be shared with friends and other photographers. For those who are looking for natural ability, you will find none here. But talent is easy, it is inherited by the lucky, but in the absence of talent we can only find hard work and relentless effort. I cannot call what I do work as I love it. I shoot a great deal of film but do love the digital take on the world as well. Each as a unique feel to it which is wonderful to explore. |
