Biography

My independent travels began in Tasmania, then took off with the Seventies Asian overland journey and later working in the Arabian Gulf. I've been locked in the medieval town hall tower of Tallinn, Estonia, and stranded by monsoon rains in rural Malaysia, had my pocket picked in Naples and was detained by Soviet-era border guards in Czechoslovakia - and wouldn't have missed any of it. My articles and images have been published in 30 or more countries.

about me

Any special artistic influences?
I admire deliberately simple and uncluttered composition, and I am still working to achieve that feel in my own work.
What is the best photographic advice that you have ever received?
To make the most of the light at the beginning and the end of the day, and use the time inbetween for other things.
If you weren’t a photographer, what would you be?
I might just be a perpetual traveller, but that would be a life without focus (as it were).
