I’ve always had a need for the moment. For me that’s what life’s about – a continuous search for the perfect moment. It’s a rare commodity, I admit, but every so often I stumble across it, and when I do, I’m quick to force it into a corner, tie it up and make it last.
Taking photos is a fascinating way of preserving those special moments. When I was a young teenager I worked as an editor on a children’s magazine and when the enterprise died, I stole the SLR camera. I’ve taken pictures ever since.
On this site I’ve chosen to display some of my favourites. It’s a personal project, but one I’m happy to share.
