Freelance photographer based in Brighton, UK, specializing in landscape and cityscape/architecture.

I've been an avid nature enthusiast and an active rambler since I can remember, so quite naturally - I focus my attention on nature. Having tried wild bird photography, nowadays I concentrate on landscape.

Although I'm proficient in photoshop and my interest in photography actually evolved from computer graphics, I favour natural-looking images with minimum processing applied. In the demanding art of landscape photography I prefer to rely on neutral graduated filters and the patience to wait for optimum conditions rather than resort to high dynamic range software and akin gimmicks. And unless expressly stated otherwise, all my photographs are single exposures.

Digital SLR is my tool of choice and I stand for traditional, if not conservative, approach to landscape photography. But I believe all the technology available to us today, digital, film in all its different flavours, imaging software, is just a means to an end. And even HDR can be put to good use (though sadly that rarely happens).

All my images are available as prints.

If you have any questions about my work, technique etc, do not hesitate to ask. I don't ignore any queries, although sometimes I may not be able to reply immediately :-).
