After college I operated a photography business, concentrating on art work, archetecture, and social photography, and at that time it was all film based. However, I've always been an active walker and photographer, so it took me no time to become involved with photographing my surroundings - from the urban to the more remote.

I've attempted to make photographs that reveal something of the nature of a place, as found. In that respect there has been an effort to not romanticise or become sentimental, or to present a harmonious, perfect, and perhaps idyllic view. I'll leave that to others who are far more capiable. Instead, my approach has seemed to be a little more direct, less affected, and I hope as concerned with documenting as much as anything ealse. I dont mind the idea of making photographs that can be seen as ugly or beautiful, disturbing or uplifting, and that has throughout my photographic life possibly been the only personal rule in taking and presenting images.
