Lenswork Publishing “Light, Glorious Light” 2023 book

Happy to report that one of my images “Sunrise” was selected to appear in the Lenswork book “Light, Glorious Light”. An unusual image for me as I normally don’t have color photos published, let alone a landscape. The majority of my published work is in monochrome and my subject matter is usually more detail oriented. I shot this image over ten…

PX3 Silver Award

I am happy to announce that my photograph “Stare Tactic” won a Silver Award in the 2023 in the PX3 Le Prix de la Photographie de Paris in the nature category. This shot was unusual for me as it was in color ( I rarely enter color images in competitions) and it is of a bird (I am far from…

I am happy to report that my images have been selected to appear in the Lenswork Publishing “Trilogies 2022: book. The book is a series of three-image collections from 125 photographers.

Autumn Roundup

Just though I would post a roundup of some of my autumn themed photos from this year. Not the most beautiful shots but one or two might be good enough for a bank calendar! Nothing special location-wise. I just shot mainly around some local parks. Gear was either my Fujifilm XT3 or Leica M9. Just click on a pic to…

It isn’t easy being green

I am a big fan of black and white photography. Even though I no longer use film, I still like to “process” a number of my images into black and white. As a teenager I had a darkroom and shot and processed black and white film almost exclusively. Sure, Kodachrome was another favorite, but with black and white I had…

Spring. A refreshed outlook.

Regular readers (LOL) may have noticed that I always try to get away from ‘nature’ photography. I seem like I am happier when I get to photograph something of a different, ahem, nature. Yes, I do enjoy the occasional urban/street/automotive/abstract photograph, but I have decided that I will embrace the nature. Yes, I am going to happily photograph the natural…

Time for a change…..

….in content. I think I’ll take a little break from all of the nature photography I posted here lately. This is not the best time of year for nature photography where I live, so I haven’t been out much amongst the flora and fauna lately. Well, truthfully, I haven’t been out amongst anything lately. That’s another story for another day.…

My favorite photo from 2021

Generally, if I end up with one or two “good” photos in a year I am happy. I try not to be one of those people who show every photo they take. I really do try to self edit as much as possible. Sometimes one gets through that I later think, “meh, shouldn’t have shown that one”. Other times my…

The book features 300 photographs from 300 photographers celebrating our natural world. It is an honor to be amongst such skilled artists. I was a little taken aback…
