About Me
I seem to be following in the footsteps of a crowd of people who reach their mid-life and begin to explore their creative sides. Whether its because we have more time or our priorities change I am not sure, but I am so glad it happened to me!
I dabbled with photography in my teens, back in the pre digital days where 35mm film was king. I remember taking lots of awful shots but enjoying the whole process; once I even tried for a double exposure, winding back the film and exposing a second time! I can’t say it turned out well, but the fun was in the experimentation
Flash forward 20 years and I reawakened that passion and invested in a new digital camera.
Little did I know what I was getting myself into, not only in mastering the basics but also in all the editing software that can be used.
Today (Jan 2025) I would say I know most of the basics of exposure triangle and composition. That’s not to say I don’t still make stupid mistakes, like forgetting I’m on manual focus on sunrise shots and losing an hour of shooting!
I like to tweak my images in Lightroom but try not to go overboard. That being said there is always a time a place and more abstract edits can be great fun too.
I now believe that I can produce images good enough to be on someone’s wall and those are for sale in my store.
I’ve also included a gallery of choice images from the last few years to maybe demonstrate my ongoing progress.
I know I have so much more to learn and can’t wait to try more and more techniques out.
Thank you for looking and please do let me know your thoughts, you can contact me on the socials, in my eyes feedback is king and key to improving!
