My passion for photography really started when my brother bought me an old Nikon 35mm camera. It had a fixed lens, so I was a little restricted as to what I could use it for.
I then moved on to a basic, but modern compact zoom camera, which after a short time I exchanged for my ever faithful Minolta 500i Dynax.
I have had many happy years perfecting my skills with this camera, which I still own and use to this day.
Since April 2007 I desided that the digital age was the way to go, and so reluctantly, I purchased my first digital camera .

"Simon is a nice guy, never short of words of sage advice or encouragement. But more than that he can take damn good photograph. The colours in his macros, the subtle mists in his landscapes and the breathtaking cloud formations he manages to capture keep me coming back regularly to look at his photographs."

"Simon is a very sensitive photographer. He has the ability to see beauty and art in the tiniest things as well as capturng the greatness of mountains and landscape with a real artist's eye. I find his photos a real joy to look at. Not only that but Simon takes the time to look at others' photos and give a well thought out and considerate response. A great contact to have, thanks for your support, Katie"
