I wanted to make this photograph a little special using digital post production, as I thought that it captured a great little moment. When I took the snap I didn’t see the man’s arm pointing or the two women sat under the umbrella. However when looking through my photographs at the end of the day,…

This ornate street lamp was photographed on Westminster Bridge, near Big Ben, the houses of Parliament and the London Eye. Apart from the great style and gold details the painted side of the lamps caught my eye and made me wonder why this side of the street lamps are painted. I suppose there could be…

Walking along the banks of the River Clyde in Glasgow I was there for one reason and one reason only, for photography! As much as the above image wasn’t the most exciting I captured that day, I really like this urban image. I think that the graffiti tags combined with the warm afternoon winter sunlight…

The more I photograph bridges and architecture, the more I like the results when converted to monochrome or black and white. Especially in this case, as the blue sky almost becomes black and the clouds add an interesting extra element to the image.

Personally it isn’t something I drink, but a couple of the people I live with in a student flat really enjoy their drink (as you can see). So rather than throw the bottles away, I thought it would be an interesting experiment…

Back in late September of this year I photographed my first wedding. Obviously I had assisted my dad when he had done weddings in the past, but this was the first on my own. Fortunately I was able to convince Mark to be an assistant and at the time he kindly provided a second camera…

I think this is Hulme, well technically the foreground is Salford Quays as this was taken from the viewing platform at the Imperial War Museum North. However I can see various tower blocks that I know are in the Moss Side / Hulme area of Manchester. I am almost certain that the rainbow would only…

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…
