Something of a mission statement. Maybe.
In country, hinterland, moorland silence and spiralling raptors. Littoral energy at the land’s very margin, vigour and hoisted ozone. Those things that remain as the world moves on, hidden and tangled. Those places that may or may not be freighted with magic but, regardless, stir an emotion. Discoveries in the places where people are perhaps thin on the ground and maybe even long gone. Images selected for the story they may be holding close, for the enquiry and thoughts they provoke. Images that may even reflect another way of doing things that has possibly slipped away. All these things represent a glimpse into my-very-own-passion: the reason I wave a camera about, and sometimes release the shutter.
Based in, ranging from but not tethered exclusively to very, West Wales where you can go no further without getting wet. Images here are interpretations of those things that appeal to me, those things that stir me: compel me to point a lens. There is no real structure here, no particular type, just an attempt to frame those things, anything, I feel contains or exudes wonder: things that stir in me an emotion that I might capture and pass on. Images may appear several times, there are some within the galleries that feel comfortable just about everywhere and so I try not to restrict them. Don’t be alarmed!
There is no real attempt to categorise here, consider it a chance to browse and perhaps discover something you’d like on your wall.
