TITLE: Storm on the horizon

The vast expanse and emptines, made the cockle pickers seem like ants on the foreshore.

They were oblivious to the on-coming storm on the horizon.

Man, dwarfed by nature.

Taken at Thorpe Bay, Shoeburyness, Thames Estary, Essex, UK.

I have been interested and practising photography from the age of around 15. In another life I spent time as a professional dark room manager.

My life changed dramatically when serious illness, which included major construction of a new stomach.
The route back to a near normal life was to devote myself to a deeper study and interest in photography.

Many things inspire me to take photos; music, books and the thought of being back in hospital where even walking can not be taken for granted.

I can no longer use or handle heavy cameras with long lens because of the weakness in my arms, so I use a smaller camera enabling to shoot with ease in variety of situations.

I strive for simple dynamic powerful pictures. < BACK TO GALLERY
