Letters on the land
I've been subconsciously drawn to recognisable patterns on the land for some time now. These images span two years - over half my photographic 'career' - and it took me some considerable part of that to recognise that I was frequently composing frames based on common glyphs. That is, I was seeing and using familiar markings, such as letters, as the starting point for my images. Naturally, when I more
Tufa Cascades of the French Jura
Picking a theme that is not geographically based is, I feel, a near impossibility with landscape photography - geography is our stock-in-trade, after all! So I decided to concentrate on the two similar tufa formations to be found within 50km of each other on the western fringes of the Jura mountain range, which neatly straddles the border between France and Switzerland. I have been visiting these sets of cascades, more
Foreshore – Light and colour
The images do link geographically in that I made them all within a two mile radius of each other and they also form part of a wider photographic geology project which, although my own, is running with the consultation of others. This is ongoing and concentrates on the geology of a specific area. More specifically, the four images form a theme within the project as I find myself more
Ice Jewels of Jökulsárlón
I visited Iceland in my youth as part of a school geology trip but retuned there for the first time in over 35 years on a photographic workshop last year. The weather was pretty atrocious, especially when we visited the glacial lagoon at Jökulsárlón, where the icebergs carved from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier, get washout into the sea, many of which are broken up and scattered upon the black volcanic more

Lone Trees in the Snow
Putting a set of four coherent images together is more of a challenge than I first thought, especially as it was at short notice and I didn't want them to be a collection grouped by a single location. In fact, after almost an hour of puzzling over images in Lightroom and my deadline looming I decided to wimp out and take the easy option. Lone trees in the snow. Easy because more

Naturally Simple
A snowfall had simplified an otherwise messy grassy bank and these skeletons of weeds took on a wonderful graphic appearance, isolated against an almost white background. more

East to West, 4 days in January
After trialling and researching a few differing cameras, styles, films, I decided that 6x6 format and a Hasselblad 501 was possibly the one for me. more
Motion
Motion is the name of the ongoing project I have taken these 4 images from. The motivation for this project is my fascination with water in the landscape and how it shapes it. more
