Prints of mountains, wild places and water, with a few macro/nature photos sneaking in. Until recently I was working with 35mm film, but rising costs have meant a swap to digital. Starting to enjoy the increased flexibility!
Now experimenting with greetings cards, printed on 340gsm card.

Photography...of mountains, wild places and water

Mountains…

…inspire in me what the Welsh call “hwyl a hiraeth”, a sense of belonging, and of something missing when it’s not there. At times I feel like something is calling me to the mountains (sometimes even specific ranges, like Snowdonia), so I’m lucky to live in the Brecon Beacons, although at times I just need something…bigger. I hope I bring that to my photography.

Wild Places…

…ok, so not entirely wild places, most places I go to are managed in some way, but I mean somewhat remote, unsanitised, possibly even a bit unkempt. I look for colour, seasonality and dramatic lighting.

Water…

…in all its forms; lakes & reservoirs, rivers & waterfalls -especially waterfalls-the sea and ice all hold a certain fascination for me. I try to capture its movement and its reflective properties (often to the despair of my companions), and will often go to great lengths to get that shot.
