My work is greatly influenced by nature, particularly plants. So it will come as little surprise that having spent over 25 years working in horticulture my passion for photography and my love of plants have combined. I find the macro world so intriguing. It is only when you stop and take that second, closer look that you find and appreciate the finer details. Often missed with that first glance, it reveals a fascinating world and an endless source of inspiration.I am largely self-taught and since 2005 I have worked exclusively with digital capture. All my images are the result of in-camera capture and processing to mimic traditional darkroom techniques. I believe photography is about waiting for the moment and capturing it with the click of a shutter, not reconstructing that moment later with a computer.
