Stairs To The Thames
My love of landscape naturally led me to pursue a bachelors degree in Photography in Newcastle, where I learned the technical aspects of my art.
Still running a business in the construction sector which takes me around the UK, I look for every opportunity to find beauty in the landscape around me, to show the world. This, of course, doesn't mean I don't take the camera everywhere else I go.
I also have a love of pushing the boundaries of Landscape Photography and use methods like long exposures and different editing techniques, to take my photography into the realms of digital art, rather than a representation of what the eye sees. These images are designed to take elements of the landscape and process them to provoke thought and emotion.

entry description
A long exposure cityscape capturing the architectural contrast along the River Thames. The shot frames the journey from the historic riverfront warehouses to the towering modernity of The Shard. The smooth river surface, a result of the extended exposure, mirrors the sleek geometric lines of the structures, while the dramatic sky adds depth and dynamism to the scene. The bold architectural foreground creates a sharp juxtaposition with the distant skyline, offering a compelling blend of old and new London.about the photographer
