Welcome to a small corner of my world.
If you love something in here, great. If you hate something, that's great too as it's a reaction (but it's always good to know why). I think the worst reaction is indifference, but that just makes me want to create better images
Part of me thinks that an image should always be 'as it was' at the time of taking, with no post-processing necessary and I do try and get it right in-camera. However, in this age of digital technology I'd be a fool not to utilise software to my advantage, so I'm also happy to manipulate the hell out of an image if that enables me to produce the kind of photography I want to produce.

About Me
I started off with film photography on an old Praktica MTL50 about 30 years ago, and progressed into digital back in about 2003. It was a learning curve and a half, and nearly put me off photography altogether as I just couldn't get the same results as I had with slide film! My enthusiasm with photography has waxed and waned over the years, depending on time available and other factors.
I am rarely satisfied with anything I produce and always want to do better. I'm learning to be less heavy-handed with digital manipulation in order to get what I want out of an image, and I hope I never lose the passion to at least try and be the kind of photographer I'd like to be.
