Getting up the hilly areas around cities such as Edinburgh, or in this case Barcelona, can be hard work, especially with a lot of heavy camera gear in 30 degree heat, but it was worth the effort for the above photo. This view of Barcelona’s Harbour was taken from edge of the Gardens of Joan…

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…

Believe it or not there are four people in this photograph. I had walked down to the beach at Abersoch to get some sunset and evening light images. It was as I was walking back to the house that I turned back towards the sea and saw this scene. If you can’t make them out,…

Plockton is the nicest place I have been to in Scotland and this is my favourite photograph from the small fishing village. I stayed in the Plockton Inn for three very enjoyable nights last month and on the last night went for a walk in an attempt to capture a sunset on camera. It had…

This time last week I travelled from Edinburgh up into the Scottish highlands to a small village on the west coast called Plockton. It describes itself as “The Jewel of the Highlands”.

Searching the internet for interesting events in London to photograph last week, I noticed that City Hall was open to the public for the weekend I had booked to be down there photographing the capital (17th & 18th May). It would have been wrong not to go, so I got the tube down on the…

Llandudno has been one of my favourite coastal places to photograph so far this year and although I only spent a few hours there, I feel that I have a lot of images to share. This picture caught my eye because of the sweeping curve of the sea on the sand. It was very deliberate…

One of the most famous sights and certainly the most famous bridge in Venice is the Rialto Bridge over the Grand Canal. It was completed in 1591 but there has been a dry crossing of the canal here since 1181. It is sad to see the graffiti on the bridge but I am pleased to…

I was walking around the small seaside town of Abersoch with my friend Cy, both of us looking for photographs to take. It is fascinating to me to take photographs with other photographers, they see things you don’t see and vice-versa. I spotted the warm evening light falling on this mass of boats and took…

Looking out of my window right now the weather is almost completely opposite to what you’re seeing in the above photograph, so I thought I would share this beautiful sunrise photograph with you, to at the very least cheer me up. It was taken last September on the coast of Sardinia, Italy early one morning.…
