I'm a self-taught photographer with no formal art training (apart from than 3 years of art lessons at school). Inspired by manmade and natural forms, my work covers many photographic genres, all of which I approach with an eye for composition and creativity. My work's colour spectrum ranges from vibrant colour to monochrome. This exhibition has examples of my landscape, seascape, townscape and natural history work, some of which are abstracts created using using in-camera and/or processing tools. I love the feeling of the creative process involved in producing a work of art, and I strive to make my photographs just that, art. For me, photography is the door to the creative process, allowing me to break the world down into manageable portions that can work within but which engage my mind. Images in this exhibition were mostly taken within the UK but I make sure that when traveling abroad for either work or holiday I always take my camera and seek out new things to capture.
