The Eiffel Tower is certainly the symbol of Paris if not one of the most famous structures in France. This was again taken back in 2005 but hadn’t been published on here until now. At the time Paris was bidding for the 2012 Olympic Games. A couple of weeks after this was taken it was…

Here we see the groom, Dean, signing the wedding register at his wedding back in September. I used natural sun light coming through the wonderful stained glass window over his left shoulder. Before the wedding I had asked the priest when was and wasn’t appropriate to use flash photography. Although he said that it was…

We read left to right, so as a photographer I am often conscious of this when framing pictures, because that is how we read photos too. So in an ideal world this Jetty would lead in from the bottom left and not the right. Then ideally there would be a nice white boat at the…

Castlerig is one of the half dozen places in the Lakes that attracts a lot of photographers, especially at those golden times of the day (dawn and dusk). The problem here was not only did I go to this location with two of my photographic friends, but we spent over two hours here and saw…

I have never seen rocks with such colour on a beach before. I am not sure what caused the bright red of the stone, but it was really enhanced when the waves ran over them. This is a small beach between St. Abb’s Head to the north and St. Abb’s harbour just a few hundred…

I was staying in the small fishing village of Plockton in the Scottish Highlands for a few days. The main (single track) road in and out of the village had a small logging area where there were piles and piles of logs. Noticing the “too big” notice on a massively thick tree truck I knew…

On Saturday I was lucky enough to photograph the BMW Sauber F1 Team’s Pit Lane Park at the Trafford Centre. It was great to get so close to such a powerful car, espically when I am starting to take a keen interest in motorsport. Obviously this weekend was the Grands Prix at Sliverstone, so Nick…

I have had the idea for this photograph in my head for a while. The main tower or “view platform” of the Imperial War Museum North at Salford Quays doesn’t just give great views over the quays and towards Manchester city centre, but also is interesting in its own right. The above photograph of the…

The above photograph is my favourite BMX photograph I have taken. It was a couple of weeks back that Mark and I were running around Southport trying to make the most of the strong sunlight and blue skies. As far as I know the rider pictured is doing a trick called the tailwhip. Having never…

Mark suggested a day trip to Southport; until I arrived it had completely slipped my mind that there was a great opportunity to take photos of the skate park from the pier. Last year I took a photo of a guy jumping the spine ramp. Today was much better, the light was fantastic and in…
