    2023-07-26 22:37:04 UTC

    The following morning after our performance in Amsterdam, Rico took me for a walk around his neighbourhood. He lives just one train stop away from the City Centre - Sloterdijk. Sloterdijk is a quiet place and just off a main A1 Motorway. A suburb, residential homes and a 10 minute…

    2023-07-26 12:14:57 UTC

    I appreciate Amsterdam more with each visit. It’s a privilege to travel and experience a totally different culture. My first discipline is to get a feel for a place so my trusty Lens of choice is my XF18-55mm F2.8-4. This Lens at 18mm gives me my perfect wide visual Frame…

    2023-02-04 23:22:04 UTC

    I enjoyed the day out today in Harrow-on-The Hill. Getting there should’ve been quite easy from Baker Street. However, the trains were not running today so I had to get the Jubilee line all the way to Wembley Park and then the Bus replacement service. No big deal, I was…

  6. Humanism | The Presence of People

    2022-12-05 12:09:34 UTC

    Humanism in Photography doesn’t always need to feature people. The presence of people is everywhere even without their physical being. In fact, I find the lack of physical being very powerful; it communicates a story about something. I can feel the emotion of a lost doll, someone in a hurry…


  7. Humanism | The Expressive Being

    2022-12-04 09:31:00 UTC

    The Human Being is an expressive Being. This is our natural state. The context of a birthday celebration makes it easy for the human being to open up and express themselves. Humanism in photography is about the expression, the emotional content in the moment and the elusive gesture. I love…

    2022-08-25 22:07:17 UTC

    As I was editing my images this evening, the theme of people hit me. At its very core, people make up the vibe of street photography. The Human element within the frame adds the gesture of life. The visual narrative hangs together by human expression. The thing that excited me…

    The Human Face is a landscape full of narrative. I find this most compelling for my camera. My inspiration is making normal people see their beauty. I have no problem photographing family, friends and random people I meet on my journey through life. I have learnt so much about human…


  16. People | The Expression of Character

    2022-03-29 17:18:18 UTC

    This time now is the revolution of the individual. I actually think this quest for identity has been on going since man first stood upright. The significant difference now is we have a platform accessible by anyone who has access to the Internet. The quest to feel and be unique…

    2020-10-08 12:10:17 UTC
