Updated landing page

If you happen to head to my website you'll find the landing page has this collage image with each image leading to the relavent web page within the site.
Hopefully this will give a better insight into what I do.

Tiger Tiger

An image from a recent shoot here. Shot from a 4 seater Cessna parallel flying to this 1938 Tiger Moth. Originally a trainer at a Perth RAF base this model has never left Scotland.
And remember when cameras were simple devices? Well this aeroplane has a spring loaded wind resistance gauge that measures speed. Altitude is measured by 2 simple pipes mounted on the wing. The simplicity just keeps going on making it very easy to maintain. 
Just the kind of brief that makes me realise photography is a great job.

Animals and Children




W.C. Fields had something to say on the subject along the lines of "don't work with them". Not being the type to take advice I accepted some commissions recently from Country Life to do just that. I wonder what he was on about.

Colour images from WW2 era USA


One of my fellow members of Pro Imaging posted a link to these fantastic colour, sorry color, shots from WW2 era United States. Shot by Farm Security Administration or Office of War Information photographers on 35mm and larger transparancy film they exhibit not only a great eye for detail but a fantastic understanding of what was then still a very difficult medium to master. See and read more at the International Business Times.



And if you're interested in seeing more of this and other work then head to The Library of Congress where you'll find a vast collection that documents the country from the early days of photography to the modern era. And most is public domain and available for download.
