Artist's Vision

I try to reveal the sometimes hidden beauty and complexity in natural things. I am a generalist photographer without a specialty. I am comfortable photographing all types of subject matter, concentrating on the natural shapes, lines, textures, perspectives and colours, trying not to impose myself on the subject. I enjoy using the camera to go beyond the straight documentary, venturing into the interpretive aspect of photography. All prints offered on this site are custom made, limited edition images, supplied with a certificate of authenticity, signed by the photographer.
