Fragile Paradise
As polar landscapes, white, black, and blue colors are dominant, and many motifs are also characterized by monochrome simplicity. Minimalism lets vacancies arise, which offers a range for the imagination. more
An unexpected photographic pilgrimage
Urged by the humanist Petrarch, I climbed Mont Ventoux. Yet the goal turned out not to be the top. It was the mystery of the descent, wandering through unruly earthly 'materiality', past uncanny caves through unknown seclusion, ending in deep twilight more

My Two Windows Views
When not in Italy, I spend most of my time on the beautiful island of Öland in Sweden. In contrast to the mountains, this is a completely flat area. more
That Other Landscape
‘That Other Landscape’ is a rare collaboration of three creative Scottish Landscape Photographers showcasing their work in a touring exhibition. The aim is to find out if there can be a space within the ‘art world’ for photography to share the walls as a variant medium rather than a foreign entity. Photography will always be exhibited in galleries but rarely alongside paintings, sculpture, installations etc. and often only as a body of work, sharing a message or story as a more

The Majestic Trees of Deadvlei
Recently, I had the joyous experience of driving across Namibia with a group for friends. I piloted the 'girl car' through the rough and ready roads of the Namib Desert. The landscape is harsh, hot and desperately beautiful. One of my key destinations was the dried up salt pan of Sossusvlei, where the dead trees still stand after they were cut off from water by the dunes more
Stories Written in Stone
As a geologist and photographer it was inevitable that I'd take photographs of rocks. This group of "intimate landscapes" were taken near my home on the Northumberland coast in the UK more
On Human Landscape
While I typically enjoy street and landscape photography, every now and then, while looking down my microscope at someone’s biopsy or operative surgical resection, I will be struck by the beauty of the human tissue. more
Layered landscape
In nature, we rarely encounter uniform patterns on a large scale, but by using a telephoto lens, we can subtract unwanted elements from the scene and thus magnify subtle patterns or shapes more
Book Review: Hypnosis
All of the images originate in forest landscapes, but this book is not just comprised of a series of pretty woodland photos. Instead, it's a thoughtful and deep invitation to explore your inner self and unconscious mind. more
